Surrendering your Guinea Pigs to the rescue :

There are various reasons for requesting rescue space. We are happy to offer advice prior to you making any decision so you are happy its the best course of action. We have helped Guinea Pigs stay in their home with advice and support.

We aren’t here to judge, all requests are triaged and if we accept, a timeframe will be agreed for surrender.

If we are full we may discuss the request with our reputable rescue network to get you a space -your name would be kept confidential.

Please understand we do not accept surplus breeder stock.

Terms of surrender to our rescue:

• On surrender the Guinea Pigs become the property of the rescue. There is no right of return and if you change your mind you would need to complete our standard adoption process including adherence to our strict adoption policy and paying the appropriate adoption fee.

The Potteries Guinea Pig Rescue will take responsibility for the ongoing care  and veterinary costs of Guinea Pigs we accept permanently into the rescue.

• We will always act in the best interests of the guinea pig(s) which after initial checks may include veterinary treatment or in extreme cases of ill health, euthanasia (ONLY if our exotic vet feels it is the best option for the guinea pig(s).

• After a period of 2 weeks quarantine and if deemed in full health, the guinea pig(s) will be offered for adoption in accordance with our strict adoption policy - you can view this on our website.

We are happy to offer advice prior to you making any decision, just complete our form and we will get back to you.

Drop off would be at the rescue in KIDSGROVE
