If you know guinea pigs, then you know that these animals are sweet, gentle, and loving, and they can be wonderful pets when cared for properly. Unfortunately, there are many guinea pigs who are brought into shelters because they are no longer wanted. For this reason, Metropolitan Guinea Pig Rescue, a non-profit Virginia corporation, was formed. Our purpose is to rescue, rehabilitate, and find new homes for guinea pigs in our area. We also work to educate the public on the proper care of guinea pigs. Our rescue works with animal shelters in our metropolitan area, and at times, we do special rescues.
