Heart of Ohio Guinea Pig Rescue & Sanctuary

I am a rockstar. Up at 5am. Kids ready for school. 45 min drive to school. 45 min drive home. Grabbed some oatmeal Ate it. Did rescue stuff for 5 hours. Drove over an hour for hay. Loaded 45 HEAVY bales of hay 100% alone by myself. The trailer was soso. The truck was killing me as i can not drop the tailgate with trailer hitched. Got the ratchet straps to work correctly on the first try (you have no idea how hard ratchet straps are for my neurodivergent brain) drove the over an hour home. Fed and visited the goats. Now dying in my hot tub.

This is Cleo Kitty right now being naughty and she won't stop attacking our toes and hands at night and racing around happily and for me with restless leg Syndrome my feet are always moving and she thinks I am playing. Enjoy this naughty kitten that went from being a cold freezing kitty trying to survive in negative temps outside to warm, fed, vetted and loved.

She is still here and lonely

Free female intact large breed rabbit. Age unknown but guessing approx 3 years old. This is not a child’s bunny. She does not like being picked up or held. She will come with to you for some attention and treats. With time and patience an experienced handler should be able to snuggle her on their lap. She will come with some supplies to an approved home. She is litter box trained. Tell me where she will be living and i require a video narrated by you what kind of life she will have showing where she will be living and with who both humans and animals living in the home. She is pick up in Hiram or we can meet with her on Dec 22nd from Hiram to Columbus to Dayton or Springfield.

Cleo nipped my arm. Her butt was smelly so i tried cleaning it with a wet wipe and she got scared and bit my arm not breaking skin. I yelped. Now she is mad at ME. Yep thats a cat for you. She will be available to adopt after her spay. Yes we love her but running a rescue thats for mostly for small animals i do not want to worry about a cat getting in the rescue room. She needs a home with respectful kids 6ish and older. I do not feel she would like dogs but may get use to them. Indoors only. She is approx 5 months old.
