Surrendering

Cavy Care Inc. is a true NO KILL shelter. Many shelter must euthanize because of space limitations or budget restrains. Many shelters will only take animals that are good adoptable candidates and "Claim" they are a no kill shelter in in truth they are not taking any type of animal that may not be adoptable because of behavior issues or medical issues.

Here at CCI we take guinea pigs no matter their condition, if we have the space. We provide sanctuary care if they are unadoptable for medical problems or are advanced in age. We provide care until they are able to be adopted, what ever the case. We will never knowingly adopt out a sick or compromised animal. We are a true no kill shelter.

"We never break up families where ever possible."

It is also not our policy to break up families, pairs, or what ever the configuration when they are surrendered. When the time is right they find the right home. The guinea pigs welfare comes first.

"We are never going to hassle you about having to surrender your guinea pig!"

We are not going to hassle you about surrendering, ask questions of you or make you feel bad because you are giving up this animal. You are doing the responsible thing by bring them to a shelter instead of dumping them.

"Please call and make an appointment."

We don't want to miss you. Again no one is going to hassle you or ask questions. If we have the room we are simply going to take them. Please don't just leave them outside the door. We would hate for the local wildlife to take an unhealthy interest in your precious one you are leaving with us.

If possible we are asking for a small donation for each guinea pig you leave. five dollars if possible. More would be great. If you do not have it we understand and again we are not going to directly ask you for it.

Once your guinea pig comes to us, they will remain a week to be assessed at which point they will be listed for adoption. If they are paired with someone they will be adopted as a pair.

We look for situation where everyone involved is excited and looking forward to a life time commitment with their new family member. We follow up with our new adoptive families to see how things are going and are available long after the adoption.

We are here and committed to the guinea pig community of none breeders.
