There is a lot of cute here but also some helpful/informational things. We hope you enjoy! #MGPR

Do you know what your guinea pig is trying to say? Guinea pig communication happens in all sorts of interesting ways. Check out our breakdown of cavy speak.

Marmalade wants your attention! We’ll say it once: your pigs don’t want to go swimming to cool down. Your pigs can aspirate water if you dump them in water and they can die. It is extremely stressful. We don’t care what you saw on TikTok. We have no humor about this.

[PDX Guinea Pigs @Pdxguineapigs]

Even if you don’t have compatible pigs they can still have a companionable life with a grid buddy!

@Pdxguineapigs Wow, this is the first molar I've seen. Somewhere here is a similar vial with a lower incisor in it.

Impulse decisions often don't work out. Those cute little faces at the animal shelter. Who can resist them any time of the year, but especially around the holiday season?Unfortunately, many people who bring a new pet home for the holidays do so in the excitement of the moment.

OUR PIG OF THE WHEEK John Raphael! This handsome boy came to us because their child lost interest in caring for him. 😔 He’s good with children & really likes attention. He can be a little hard to pick up sometimes but settles down quickly. 🥰[email protected]

@charlie_piggie Oh no! So sorry about Red. 💔💔

This is a friendly reminder that we halt adoptions Dec 19th. Why? A few reasons....

Pancake, wig or guinea pig?

@CentralPig MGPR made him Sanctuary due to possible long term tooth maintenance. Scurvy caused multiple tooth problems & he lost a lower incisor. Good news is after several trims they are wearing evenly. The volunteer that nursed him kept him, he lives with her pair now. He is doing GREAT!

We have just reached our 5000th adoption mark! 😎 21 years ago people were skeptical of a guinea pig rescue, but here we are. Thanks to the volunteers over the years and especially anyone who has adopted & given a gpig a good and forever home! 🧡 #AdoptDontShop

[Critter Corral GPR @Critter_Corral]

Thanks to everyone who has so far liked, retweeted, replied, & sent donations. 🤩 No small rescue can do what they do without support of volunteers & donors- every little bit helps inc keeping the conversation going about responsible care & selling/breeding practices. ❤️ you all!

I try really hard to not post sad stuff. Cause i get tired of seeing it and have muted/unfollowed a lot cause I can’t donate to everything. Maybe I’ll try to do one once every few months.
Little thing is in poor shape. As we know every little bit helps.
