So glad to have CNCR in my town. They have many wonderful guinea pigs available for adoption. Lauren is very knowledgable about them and did a great job finding the perfect piggy pair for our family. Easy to get a hold of, we scheduled a time to meet the adoptables and the rest of the process went smooth. Love what this rescue does, Adopt not shop!
I adopted four piggies from CNCR and am very satisfied. They are all adorable and you can tell they have been well cared for. It is a little hard to schedule times to meet and Lauren is hard to get a hold of, but I understand she has a ton of piggies to care for and running the rescue. Overall, great rescue and I will always be adopting piggies from her! :)
I'm thankful to have found this rescue. The young woman who runs it has always been there to answer a question and has taken a few of our piggies when we had too many.
I had a very strange interaction with the lady who runs this rescue organization. She was extremely unprofessional, unorganized and scattered. It was difficult to coordinate times/locations with her and I felt EXTREMELY uncomfortable having her visit my home. I believe that her intentions are good, but I was uncomfortable disclosing my home address to her for fears that she would be stalking later.
Can you SHIP?
Sorry, NO. Please do not contact the owner and ask about shipping guinea pigs. It is NOT possible. Please look for guinea pigs LOCAL to you! That's what this site is for--helping you find a guinea pig close to home to adopt and love.
But I want THAT one!
Yes, that one is adorable and looks just like the one you must have for your very important reason or you will not be able to go on living. But, there are many more in your area that are just as wonderful. Perhaps they are not listed here, but they can be found. The piggy in need waiting for you near your own back yard might look a little different, but could melt your heart anyway!
