Canadian Cavy's adoption process

Additional adoption info

We have a $20 per pig fee, unless we are having an adoption day.

We do have adoption contracts, these contracts are to be filled out prior to coming in to see the guinea(s) and outline everything that is required to adopt from us (cage requirements, diet, bedding and so on).

We will require a proper cage set up before adoption and photos of it can be emailed to us.

You will be asked to research guinea pigs to make sure that our adoptables do not end up homeless again from people who do not understand the commitment guinea pigs need from their owners.

About Canadian Cavy

We are mostly a support for another rescue but recently started doing adoptions of our own. We work with KassysFurryFriends, which is based out of Calgary, AB.

We foster and care for homeless guinea pigs that need new homes. We also help promote guinea pig care with our website. Why don't you have a peek.

We do what we do because there are 1000s of homeless guinea pigs each year in Alberta. Many live out their shorten lives in bad cages, bad food and never get to enjoy what it means to be kept in proper conditions.

Canadian Cavy's adopted pets

Adopt a Pet is the easiest way for you to search for a new pet in Edmonton, AB.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.

What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?

When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.

So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
