My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

How this pet arrived:
This pet was brought in by their previous owner on August 10, 2025.

Why this pet is the one for you:
Meet Papa, a charming guinea pig looking for a new home! Papa is a curious little piggy who loves to explore his surroundings and snack on fresh veggies. Papa will thrive with a large enclosure with plenty of space to roam, lots of hay for munching and cozy spots to relax. Guinea pigs are extremely social creatures and typically benefit significantly from living with another guinea pig friend of the same sex! Papa would appreciate a gentle and attentive owner who can provide him with daily interaction and enrichment. If you're looking for a wonderful addition to your family, bring a secure carrier to adopt Papa today!

More about this shelter

San Diego Humane Society, an open-admission shelter, is creating a more humane world by inspiring compassion and advancing the welfare of animals and people. Our lifesaving safety net has helped San Diego become the largest city in the U.S. to keep healthy and treatable shelter animals from being euthanized. We are a private, independent, nonprofit organization that is not affiliated with any other humane society or society for the prevention of cruelty to animals.

With campuses in El Cajon, Escondido, Oceanside, Ramona and San Diego, we provide animal services for 14 cities within San Diego County. We not only care for 50,000 animals in our communities but also share the expertise we have gained through our innovative programs with shelters nationwide so they can save more lives in their communities.

While our influence is expanding nationally, our top priority is meeting the needs of San Diego. We provide exceptional care for all animals through world-class veterinary medicine, shelter and most of all: love.
