Cavies and Canines Animal Rescue

If you’re wondering why Greta was pregnant so long, it’s because she had another single enormous baby, who happens to be identical to 69-days-older brother.

Thanks for taking such good care of them, Lydia!

The aftermath of the holidays is a challenging time for animal shelters because there’s often an increase in pets being returned after they were given as gif...

Look at Roy and James (now nicknamed Jimmy) enjoying their new home! Roy was found abandoned outside, and after bonding with baby James, these two have found their forever home 🥹

New commission finished!!

This request was submitted by the wonderfully lovely Danae Stuart Lindsay.

I don’t know what they’re called, but I’ve named them Pamela AndHerSon.

Pamela AndHerSon like herring in fancy dress, pretending to be extras from The Bill whenever they walk past a police station, and reminiscing about that time they inadvertently found Lisa Stansfield’s baby whilst helping Bono to search for what he was looking for.

I’ve obviously drawn this one in my ultra-realistic style, so usual reminder that my portrait is the image on the right.

Review from the customer:

‘My reference photo had three Guinea Pigs in it, why did you draw two? I mean, you could have just drawn one and not doubled my disappointment….’

Greta is still holding the pups hostage. Will today be the day?

Rusty’s 5th dental was a success! I think at this point, because he’s an old man and was simply neglected for too many years, he will need his teeth managed indefinitely. Unlike Sandy, who was cured dental-wise back in July after dental #6!
(Peep Pierre, who was never neglected a day in his life, but also got a dental recently for solidarity 😂)

The preemie sisters have been adopted! Feels like yesterday we were bottle feeding these two, and now you’d never even know.

Van Gogh (along with her sister) was one of EIGHT guinea pigs adopted yesterday! We love that a few "long-timers" got to ring in the new year with their new families! 🥳

A big thank you to the families that trust us as they move through the adoption process, and the foster families who kept the piggies safe and cared for while they waited for their perfect forever home.

With all my free time, maybe I should start a side hustle offering balanced veggie prep/gourmet meal delivery service for guinea pigs? 🤔

"Piggie Platters", "Cavy Cuisine", "Gourmet Guinea Greens"... who's ready to invest?!
