I have been extremely negligent in posting
Have-A-Heart Guinea Pig Rescue updates. They have been handling a massive hoarder and cruelty case. The saddest thing is that this is by a repeat offender. I'm going to link to a page with more information, but there are graphic photos of the results of animal cruelty there. Be warned. You can find information on how to help at the home page of the rescue.
INFO ON THE CRISIS PIGS: WARNING, GRAPHIC AND SAD!
One of the most helpful ways to ease the burden on Have-A-Heart is to adopt one of their guinea pigs! They have hundreds of healthy guinea pigs of all ages, br33ds, and colors! Here is their complete pet list.
And there are some guinea pigs who have been with the rescue since 2007! Please consider these pigs first.
They've been waiting for a forever home
for what feels like forever!
