Would you like to donate to, volunteer at,
or adopt from a shelter,
but the Lollypop Farm isn't convenient?
Find one nearby--
it's easy!
Girl One is a black and rust abby, Girl Two is a Black/White/Orange shorthair. So pretty! They are "both beautiful and healthy piggies, very friendly and they deserve better than to be stuck at the shelter. "
And so does Link!
Doodle does too!
And special needs Monty.
Don't forget Mitch!
Adopt A Guinea Pig is formally against giving any animal as a present. Rescues and shelters experience a huge number of surrenders the immediate months following Christmas.
