Fostering Saves Lives

Fostering is a fun and rewarding experience and is a great way to help a pet in need. For a shelter pet, becoming a foster parent is the best thing you can do. The more foster homes we have on our team, the more lives we can save!

We utilize both temporary medical fosters and permanent medical fosters. Temporary fosters are responsible for treating illness and nursing guinea pigs back to good health prior to adoption. Sometimes, we take in piggies with terminal or chronic illnesses that prevent them from ever becoming adoptable. These guinea pigs reside in a permanent foster home where all of their expenses are covered by the rescue.

Foster homes are required to make occasional trips to the rescue and veterinary clinic in Holt, MI. Please consider this when applying if you are not local!

Midwest guinea pig habitat’s, oxbow pellets, hides, water bottles, dishes and a small scale are available to foster homes upon request.

We are here 24/7 for our foster homes to answer questions and offer support.
