I have read somewhere on this forum where someone works at or for Bobtails rescue?

I just wanted to know if anyone has been there? So far the website is fantastic and I've been in contact with them and they seem very friendly. I know you might have read on my last few threads that I am going to go see some guinea pigs on 6th November. I know I'm yapping on about them but I'm so very very excited :<> I have never ever held a guinea pig or touched a rabbit or anything small and fury, only felt tarantulars and feathers lol

I'm sure someone from here has been there? and perhaps knows how excited I am... I hope they will let me take pictures of the ones I see. Sadly can'y buy them just yet but I will defo sponser atleast one :))

Let me know if you have been there and what they are like... their home checks seem pretty strict but I guess the stricter they are, the better they love and care for their animals to prevent them from being hurt and neglected again.
 
Hi Ninz

One little point to make, with rescues none of the animals are 'For Sale' so can't be bought - they are rehomed, which is why there are rehoming policies. Anyone can go buy pets - special homes and people adopt.

I'm very excited that you are looking to adopt, so few homes are coming forward at the moment that each one is a cause for celebration. Thank you for sharing your excitement with all of us too. I wish I could be there to see your face when you first get to hold and cuddle a piggie.

Hi Suzygpr,

Thanks for your post. I shouldn't have said sale lol But I have heard that some rescues require or would appreciate a donation for when you rehome a piggie? I know I will, I mean not to price the guinea pig but to thank the rescue for working hard with what they have. It must be so difficult to run a rescue especially not knowing what the future holds, like a random day when you end up with so many abandoned guinea pigs.

I hope my house will be good enough for them :( Does it matter if there is an ill person in the house? My birds are fine in the house and also they won't be near the guinea pigs, another thing, my birds are afraid of anything lol especially flying insects LOL

I cannot wait to hold them and my boyfriend is coming too and he's just as excited as I am. He loves my birds and they love him... so hopefully it will be the same with the guinea pigs.
