Somewhere you can pet lots of Guinea pigs?

Apologies if this is in the wrong place! I was wondering if anyone knew of anywhere in the southeast/ London/ Home Counties where you can go and pet/ handle lots of Guinea pigs?!
thanks so much

Just to spend some time around cute piggies or is it for a more specific reason? I am not familiar with the areas you mentioned, but the animal rescue near me was going to let me hang out with some of their bunnies so I could figure out how allergic I am to them because I was considering rescuing a pair. It never happened due to Covid, but if your reason is similar to mine, maybe you could try a shelter or rescue.

Thank you! Yeah just to hang round with them really

I’m not sure there is anything like that. Especially with covid around as well. The only way I can think of would be to volunteer with a rescue but it’s unlikely would just be there to handle/touch piggies. Or perhaps a petting farm.

Please bear in mind the a lot don’t like being touched or petted.

I would suggest contacting a local rescue and asking if you can volunteer or help out doing something practical like cleaning cages.

As many piggies don't really love being petted, I can't imagine many places will allow this.

Bocketts Farm, has many animals that you can pet.

But only 1 guinea pig.
