Additional information

 As with all small pets, we will need to be housed securely away from any other pets in the home. 

All of our single guinea pigs are waiting to mix with owned pets. Please only apply for them if you already have a guinea pig who is in search of a companion. 

If you currently do not have any guinea pigs in your care and would like to rehome, please check the pairs/groups we have available.

Family and environment

What kind of family am I looking for?

Guinea pigs can make lovely pets for all the family, they are loveable and charming little animals. 

What type of environment would suit me?

The minimum accommodation for a pair of guinea pigs consists of a 5ft by 2ft (152cm by 61cm) hutch or indoor cage and a 6ft long by 4ft wide by 18 inches high (183cm by 122 cm) wooden framed run with a removable/hinged lid for the grass.

About Oscar

Oscar is a shy boy who is looking for the perfect friend to help build his confidence and explore with!

Oscar is inquisitive and keen to see what his carers are up to, this does suggest that with regular socialisation and patience, he can be a confident little pig. He loves hiding out amongst piles of hay and foraging for his favourite food. He enjoys snuggling up in a cosy hide for a nap and would love a companion to do this with.

Things to note

Is your guinea pig looking for a companion? As well as rehoming bonded pairs we help to find companions for single guinea pigs. We offer an onsite mixing service and can support with mixes taking place in the home. To find out more about our mixing service Woodgreen’s small pet mixing service | Woodgreen Pets Charity

We do have other single guinea pigs but as the demand for mixing can be high, sometimes these pets are matched with customers already on the waiting list. If you are looking for a companion for your guinea pig, please complete the registration form and we will be happy to discuss the next steps with you.
