Sonny’s story 📖
In June I received a message from a member of the public stating they had found a lone piggy on their garden and could I collect it.
I took my carry case and went to collect and when I arrived it was soon very clear that this boy was very very sick 💔
I brought him home tried to syringe feed some water and it was just dribbling out of his mouth and he was very weak. I called the vet and went straight down. The vet took him into the back to put him on some oxygen however he had a seizure when they took him so everyone involved decided it was the kindest thing for him to be put to sleep 💔 🪽 👼 🌈

I couldn’t help but feel heart broken.. if only I’d of got him a few days before it might have been a different story 💔RIP sweet boy ...

31/08/2024

Who remembers these guys? Latte and smudge now Teddy and smudge 🥰 these guys went into Forster and the family decided they didn’t want to let them go 🥰🥰🩵 I couldn’t be happier for these guys now they are going to be pampered pets forever 🥰

I do love a happy ending 😁🩵

Sausage says Cheeeese 😁

These two old chaps are still looking for a home they can call their own.. these guys need a nice calm environment to live out their days if you think you could offer this to these 7 year old boy please do massage me 🙏🏻

They are so full of character and charm, I’d hate for them to spend out their days with me as much as they are loved I’d prefer someone to give them more time 🩵🩵🐾

🫘 Little Bean Update 🫘

This little guy is doing amazing, although this respiratory infection is kind of kicking his butt! He’s back at the vets tomorrow, he just can’t shift it.. he starts to look better and like it’s going and then it just comes back which is not ideal. We will need more antibiotics I think 🩵🙏🏻

He’s eating amazing still and it’s such a spunky little guy 🩵

How cute is our James 🥹🥰 looking very bright this evening 🥰😁

27/08/2024

James is still doing great!! He’s been out through the night and done Lots more 💩 so that’s amazing!! 🥲 feel very hopeful now 🥰 xx

26/08/2024

I’ve never been so happy to see p**p in all my life!!! 😮‍💨 we have syringe fed some blended watermelon about an hour after his last feed and it seems to have done the trick I think maybe he’s a it dehydrated and he must of needed abit extra 🩵🥰

This is amazing news for him for sure!! I feel like a can breath!!

• Sausage & Fuzzbucket •

These two 7 year olds have been bonding over these past few days and they are now super happy and chilled with each other.

I’m looking for a retirement home to love these beautiful boys 🩵🩵
Fuzzbucket does suffer from impaction from time to time so this will be something the new care giver will need to help him with 🙏🏻

Is there anyone out there with a space for a c&c cage that would love these older guys 🥹 they are so cute and sociable. And they seem to love the camera 📸 😄

Please do inbox me if you think you could be a perfect match for these guys 🙏🏻🐾

No outdoor homes for these two

25/08/2024

Poor boy I’ve now named James.

He’s taken a turn for the worst and is refusing foods even trying to syringe feed him he’s refusing. I won’t give up. It’s going to be a long night 🥺🩵 pray for him with me 🩵🙏🏻

🚨Piggy’s Of The Week🚨

🐾🩵Chaz & Dave 🩵🐾

These guys have been in rescue for far too long now 😢 they have had no interest at all and I’m just so gutted for them 💔🥺
They just need someone to offer them some space and love 🧡 🖤

If you think you could offer these guys a home please get in touch they are 2 years old 🩵

Who ever snaps these boys up will be so lucky 🍀 🩵🩵🐾

25/08/2024

This male is one that came in from the breeding advertisement.. 💔🥺

He’d been housed in a confined space with his son who’s clearly been beating him up! He has so so many bite and scratch wounds all over him 😢 he had some hair loss so had to bathe to clean him up and treat mites. hes now drying off and on a heat pad. He’s definitely underweight too 💔 so so glad we got this beautiful boy! His life will never be the same again! 🩵
He will be going for a check up with the vet next week.

I have his son who will now live separately. Two others that were rescued from the same please are in good heath and the lady that rescued them for me is keeping them and they now have such a loving amazing home 🏡

Congratulations 🥂 to the new Mr & Mrs 🥰

•Roger & Brenda•
Our newly weds have gone off into the sunset. Roger’s owner had him neutred and then pair up with one of our ladies today they start the rest of their lives together 😁😊🩵🩷

I love having happy ending 🐾

25/08/2024

It’s been a hectic few days! We’ve taken in 4 males so far and on route to pick up more.

Yesterday thanks to some amazing people we managed to save the pair advertised as a breeding pair of piggy’s. Thank god they are now safe! Although we also ended up with two extra males that were offered up whilst there.

Here’s a photo of two older boys we took in. These boys are 7 years old and are in our bonding pen. They get along very well, I will soon be looking for a retirement home for these beautiful gentlemen 🥹🩵🩵

23/08/2024

Little bean 🫘 update

He went to the vets yesterday and he’s gaining weight which is great! He still has a respiratory infection but vet says his chest sound much improved so we keep going for another 5 days and have another check 🙏🏻🩵 praying he can shake off this last bit soon. It looks unlikely that he has any other issues but it’s still too early to say for sure.
Hes improved so much over the past week I’m so thrilled 😁 🥰

I’m sure you will all be as happy as I am 😊🫘🩵

23/08/2024

Newest arrival, please meet Derick 🥹

He was such a shy boy when he came and would run a mile but he seems to be coming out of his shell so much and is a very sweet 🍬 boy! Hes only 1 years old, slightly on the chunky side so he’s on a small diet and then in September he will be first on the list to be neutered.

I do believe he has the cutest nose 🤩🩵😊

23/08/2024

It’s finally Friday and you know what that means it’s fiver Friday ☺️☺️
If you can spare a fiver or even a pound to help us continue our work we would really appreciate it.
We currently have 20 Mouths to feed plus 3 Guinea pigs currently receiving vet care and we can’t continue this great work without your support.
We also have at least 4 new piggy’s coming in over the weekend 🐾 🩵

So excited to let you know at the end of the month how many animals we have helped in August.

Thank you for your continued support from me and the piggies ♥️

These girls have found their forever home now and I couldnt be happier for them 🥰🥰 they are going with Sam our neutered boar too 🩵🙏🏻

This trio of Ladies are looking for a retirement home 🏡 🩷 somewhere to snuggle up together and be loved 🥰 these girls are 4-5 years old. They require hair cuts as their hair grows very long (I’m always happy to cut their hair if who ever takes these girls is local)
These girls have continually been over looks due to the fact they are older and need to go together.

Ideally an indoor home with c&c set up for these lady’s.

If you think you could be the perfect home please drop me a message 🏡🩷🩷🩷

Things you might not know about me 😁
The rescue isn’t my full time job, it’s a massive hobby of mine that takes up most of my free time.
My full time job is actually Dog grooming 🐶 🐾
Barkbers Pet Services is my business and I work from home which is so helpful when I have poorly piggy’s 😊 It also helps fund the rescue 🙏🏻😊
I have a two year old little girl that adores all of the guinea pigs they are her baby’s. 😊🩵

I have a better half that isn’t as Guinea pig mad as I am but he puts up with me and my piggy madness haha 😅

I also have cats dogs and chickens 🐔

So it’s safe to say it’s abit of a mad house but it’s exactly the way we like it 😊

20/08/2024

I gained 995 followers, created 290 posts and received 7,677 reactions in the past 90 days! Thank you all for your continued support. I could not have done it without you. 🙏🤗🎉

Sam is still looking for his own family (he’s a neutered boy) of girls and hoomans to call his own. If you could offer this boy a forever home please do get in touch 🤞🩵🥹

🫘 Little Bean Update 🫘

So when Little Bean came in I weighed him at 272g, and now he’s 305g which is amazing 🩵 as he did loose weight then started to put it back on again. His breathing is much improved and no choking at all 🩵🙏🏻😊

I made this little salad for him and his room mate (they aren’t house together just in the same room)
He ate every bit 😄🩵
