This bonded pair of males are needing a new home due to owner Hayley being allergic to them. They are in Swindon. Buzz is 1 year old, Woody is 3-4 months. They have not had much handling so the new owner will need to have patience so the piggies can get used to being picked up. If you can offer a suitable, permanent home, get in touch by DM (not comments please) and we will go from there.
Update: as expected, this pair have been offered some lovely homes! A home has now been accepted and they should be going to their new home shortly. If anything changes, I will post the update here. Thanks to everyone that responded, and apologies for any disappointment.
I do not expect this lovely pair of females to be available for long! They will benefit from regular handling so they become a bit more relaxed when picked up, and this should improve over time. If you can offer a suitable, permanent home, get in touch by DM (not comments please) and we will go from there. Please note that they are used to being kept inside most of the time, and it is now too late in the year to make the switch to outside.
Owner Stacey said:
“Two females, Snickers and Gizmo, around 9 months old. They are indoor guniea pigs but go out in the garden in nice weather for a few hours to munch on the grass. They are not very easy to catch but once caught they are fine for a cuddle or two and are as good as gold. We are located in Bradford-on-Avon.
I’m happy for the cage to go with them as it’s been nibbled here and there.”

Clover is a neutered male and he needs a new home. If you can offer a suitable, permanent house bunny home, get in touch by DM (not comments please) and we will go from there. I gather a previous attempt to bond him failed badly so he may not accept a new friend. Here is what owner Rachel said:
“Clover is 10 months old and he has been neutered. All of his vaccinations are up to date, but he hasn’t been microchipped.
No health issues.
He hates being picked up, but he loves attention, he’ll happily come and sit next to you whilst you stroke him.
Litter trained apart from a few times he’s peed over the edge of the litter tray.
Clover is an indoor bunny & has only ever been indoors, he has a cage as a base only gets ‘locked’ in the cage when i’m hoovering because he likes to get in the way of the hoover.
I live in Calne.”

I received a really positive update from owner Laura yesterday, and I thought I would share it here - we all need some good news from time to time I feel! Laura said:
“Around a year ago you enabled us to adopt sweet piggy Otter and I just wanted to share with you that she is thriving and is dearly loved.
She lives with two other guinea pigs and they have a very happy life full of their favourite foods and endless love.There are so many sad stories in rescue but it’s important to know that you do a wonderful job and because of you putting us in touch with her previous owner (who was absolutely lovely btw), Otter landed with a family who adore her.
Thank you for what you do. “

Update: Nugget’s owner has now accepted a home offer, but if anything changes, I will put the update here.
Nugget is a neutered, vaccinated male just under 3 years old. He has recently been bereaved and his owner is not able to take on another rabbit so reluctantly wants to find a new home for him where he can bond with a neutered female. Owner Jackie has provided detailed info about him, so do please have a read before considering adoption. He is in Lyde Green, Bristol, South Gloucestershire
If you can offer a suitable, permanent home, get in touch by DM (not comments please) and we will go from there.
“ Nugget is currently fit and well, with no symptoms or known behavioural issues. His bonded companion recently became very unwell with suspected E. cuniculi, so on veterinary advice Nugget is completing a precautionary 28-day course of Panacur due to possible exposure. He remains completely symptom-free and his final dose is due on 26 September 2026.
Nugget currently lives in a 6ft × 4ft purpose-built bunny shed with a large attached Omlet Zippi run, connected tunnels and additional hideaway areas. He is a happy, inquisitive and active rabbit with lots of personality. He loves exploring and particularly enjoys jumping and climbing onto platforms and higher areas. He is used to people and has lived very happily bonded with a female rabbit, so he is accustomed to and enjoys rabbit companionship. He has also lived with a cat and a dog.
I have some equipment that I am willing to sell to the new owner if they would like it:
* Any equipment that can go with him:
* 6ft × 4ft purpose-built Bunny Shed
* Adjoining Runaround system, with multiple tunnels, sections and hideaways:
* Omlet Zippi secure run with platforms — 8ft × 39in
* Front wide mesh tunnel — 4ft × 1.4ft
* Rear high tunnel — 2ft × 1ft × 2ft
* Rear hideaway — 2 sections, approx. 4ft × 1ft”

This pair of neutered sisters are needing a new home - they are in Limply Stoke, Bath. Their owner Eloise has provided full details about them, so do have a read. If you can offer a suitable, permanent home, get in touch by DM (not comments please) and we will go from there. Eloise said:
”Their names are Beano (black with small white dot on nose) and Boosh (all black). Both female (litter sisters), born June 2021 and both neutered in Nov 2021
Neutered in Nov 2021. Their annual jabs are due in Sept so I’m taking them for those next week. Apart from that, all vacs are up to date.
Generally speaking in good health. Neither of them are on any meds. Boosh is losing a bit of hair from her back - we’ve had this treated and checked by the vet and they’ve examined under a microscope but couldn’t see any mites. It started last winter when there was a prolonged period of rain (so they didn’t really leave their hutch) and has improved over the summer months when they’ve been outside and had more space. Our theory is that either Boosh is doing it to herself or Beano is doing it to her - either way, I wonder if it’s a sign that they are possibly bored or underoccupied? (Admin edit - probably due to the sister mounting her)
They are kept outside in a hutch with an attached run and tunnels. They have been inside for short periods (eg following being neutered and when weather has been very cold) so they are used to it.
They have quite different personalities but get on well. Beano has always seemed a bit hormonal to me - she definitely gets quite antsy in the Spring, and when she was younger she would always be the one to dig. I always felt she wanted a more exciting life and found her sister a bit frustrating and dull at times? She often tries to mount Boosh - much more so when they were younger, but she still does it from time to time, especially if she’s excited or there’s interesting food around. I would say she is the dominant sister. Boosh is definitely more chilled out and placid, and is happy as long as there’s plenty of food. They are both friendly and interested in what’s going on but have become nervous around humans due to lack of regular interaction. They are happy to be hand fed or stroked but no longer keen on being picked up.
We have a double storey hutch but it’s now 5 years old and not in the best condition especially after a house move. We also have an Omlet rabbit run and some lengths of tunnel/tube that connects to the hutch. I would be happy for all of this to go with them. “
