Can you feel the love?

Adoptable degus.

one of ourcrescue adventures led us and amazing woman Diane and her son. She was the "Degu Guru", as I called her, and she taught us all about Goo husbandry.

While Degus look like oversized gerbils in appearance, they are more closely related to Chinchillas and Guinea pigs! They are native to Chile.
Degus should be kept in open wire cages, not glass tanks. They eat hay, and special pellets and are prone to diabetes....so read labels and limit treats!
Degus are social critters and live in colonies. Males should be neutered in colonies with mixed sexes to avoid breeding.
They have a life expectancy of approximately 8 years.
For more information on Goo care, feel free to message us.

It's our month! The month of LOVE! MHIY was brought about through love of the unwanted, neglected, abandoned and misrepresented "disposable pets", and the love of our rescue family.
Some of you have been with us since 2009, that fateful day a 10 gallon tank of 16 gerbils started our rescue mission. From there we have grown to care for over 11 "starter/disposable pets" as well as a few farm animals. (Many of you remember Diego - the old man is still kicking!)
Being 100% volunteer run for over 15 years (15 years an official non profit this March!), we are so blessed to have each and every one of you to thank for keeping us going!
Valentines Day is a HUGE day for us! We will be hosting our 5th annual RESCUE VALENTINE fundraiser. We will have the critter sitter combo with treats, hay holders and willow balls along with some Valentines Day items for people 🙂
We currently have guinea pigs and sugar gliders in need of neutering/spaying before they can go home - There will be sponsorship opportunities for them as well. If we could run on love alone we would have enough for every animal here and more! Sadly, the veterinarians, stores, electric company and landlord do not accept love as payment!
More to follow soon as we get some photos uploaded and the fundraiser officially started!
YOU ALL ROCK!!!!

Im sorry I misplaced your information....but to the people who were looking for rats, please inbox me. These seem to have behavior issues, but not sure if because they are with inexperienced owners, habitat issues or other environmental factors that are causing issue. I will find that out momentarily.

Also, this little issue has popped up :) This little guy needs a sponsor for neuter ($125) so he can find a forever home asap!
Thank you.

It's been a moment since I've posted a PSA about finding a family pet. A recent call brought to mind that many people think it's best to get a baby bun to "grow up" with their family. Unfortunately, this has proven to be a gamble in more cases then not.
Baby rabbits by nature freeze when frightened. this is a defense mechanism...mostcpeople have heard of "Fright or Flight". Typically small rabbit knowvthey cannot outrun predators so they freeze. This is why when being handled people believe babies to enjoy being pet and cuddled.... .which is not always the case.
When looking for a pet for your family, it is important to choose a pet that has a certain level of tolerance to the entire families energy. Excitement to a rabbit means death.... as with most small animals.
"Getting the wiggles out" and listening to calming music before playing with your small pet can be helpful in the bonding process. Trust needs to be established early on and continued through for a good match between pet and pet parents.
Questions? I'm here to help! Feel free to message me at [email protected] and I can call you to go over some behavioral senerios with you to insure a beautiful relationship can begin!
