Guinea Pig Haven

Guinea Pig Haven Welcome to Guinea Pig Haven - Where Every 'Wheek' Matters! We are passionate about giving Guinea Pigs a second chance.

Based in Western Australia, we rescue, rehabilitate, and find loving homes for surrendered, abandoned, and neglected Guinea Pigs. Our foster-based network ensures each piggy receives personalised care until they're ready for adoption. Run entirely by volunteers, every donation goes directly back into our rescue efforts. Join us in making a difference for these furry friends!

🦜 Happy World Parrot Day! 🦜
As a guinea pig rescue, we’ll admit we’re a little biased towards furry friends — but today we’re celebrating one of WA’s most unique native species: the Western Ground Parrot 💚 (and, of course, featuring these two cuties!).

✨ Fun fact: Just like guinea pigs, Western Ground Parrots spend most of their time on the ground rather than flying, and they’re most active at dawn and dusk — even sleeping tucked away in ground shelter! 🌅🌾

Like many of the guinea pigs that come through our rescue, these beautiful birds rely on dedicated people to protect them and give them a chance to thrive

With only a very small population remaining in the wild, they’re a powerful reminder of why conservation and animal welfare matter so much 🌿🐾

🌧️⚡ Storm Safety Alert — Please Bring Your Guinea Pigs Indoors ⚡🌧️

With severe storms approaching, we’re urging all members of our community to bring your guinea pigs and other small pets safely indoors as soon as possible. Strong winds, heavy rain, thunder, lightning, and sudden temperature drops can be life‑threatening for small animals, even in sturdy outdoor hutches.

If you need emergency indoor housing, here are some quick and safe options you can set up right now:
🛁 Bathroom or Laundry
Small, enclosed rooms offer extra protection during storms
Line the floor with towels, fleece, or puppy pads
Add a hidey (cardboard box, carrier, or laundry basket on its side)
🚿 Shower or Bathtub
A secure, contained space away from windows
Place a towel or mat underneath for warmth and comfort
Add hay, water, and a hidey so they feel safe
🏕️ Pop‑Up Playpens
Easy to set up in any sheltered room
Ideal for temporary indoor housing
Add bedding, hay, and a hidey to reduce stress
🧺 Carriers, C&C Panels, or Storage Tubs
Carriers are perfect for short‑term sheltering
C&C grids can be quickly assembled into a safe indoor pen
Large ventilated storage tubs work well as temporary enclosures

⚠️ Important
Keep pets away from windows and drafts
Make sure they have constant access to hay, water, and dry bedding
Stay indoors until conditions improve and it is safe outside
Your guinea pigs rely on you to keep them safe during wild weather. Even a short time outside in a storm can be extremely dangerous.

💛 Please bring them inside now and keep them cosy until the storm has passed.

Stay safe, and give your piggies a gentle pat from all of us at Guinea Pig Haven Perth.

💚 National Volunteer Week 💚
This week, we want to say a huge thank you to every volunteer who makes Guinea Pig Haven possible. From our dedicated foster carers opening their homes, to our hardworking ‘big bosses’ behind the scenes, and our amazing community of supporters, adopters, Gubers (Guinea Pig Ubers) and followers we couldn't do it without you.

✨ So far in 2026:
🐹 132 guinea pigs welcomed into care
🏡 114 guinea pigs adopted into loving homes
🍼 18 babies born in care (18 VERY cute babies may we add)

Every cage cleaned, every transport completed, every donation made, every application processed and every share on social media has helped change the lives of guinea pigs in need.

If you want to volunteer or foster care with GPH send us a message❤️

🌟 OUR LONG‑TERM GPH SWEETHEARTS ARE STILL WAITING… COULD YOU BE THEIR FOREVER? 🌟

Some of our most deserving bonded male pairs at GPH have been patiently waiting 3–4 months for someone to finally give them a forever home. They’ve watched their friends get adopted while they stay behind, still hopeful, still gentle, still ready to love.

These are the faces who greet us every day with trust, resilience, and quiet hope:

🤍 Donald & Mickey
A cheeky, joyful duo who bring laughter wherever they go. They’re bonded, brave, and always up for an adventure together.

🖤 Fatso & Gable
A shy pair with huge hearts. Once they warm up, they’re loyal, affectionate, and deeply connected to their humans.

🤎 Tawny & Frogmouth
Full of personality and charm. These two are quirky, cuddly, and guaranteed to brighten your home.

🐾 Why adopt a bonded pair from GPH?

They comfort each other during the transition
They’re already emotionally stable together
They entertain each other (and you)
You get twice the love without twice the work

These beautiful boys have waited long enough. If you’ve been thinking about adopting, this is your moment. Let’s get them home.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible mums, carers, and compassionate hearts out there 💕

Today we’re celebrating not just the mums raising families, but also the quiet, nurturing kindness we see every day in our community — the people who open their homes, give their time, and care deeply for animals who need a second chance.

At Guinea Pig Haven, we’re so grateful for the “piggy mums” who foster, adopt, donate, volunteer, and love these little ones as their own. Every cuddle, every clean enclosure, every trip to the vet — it all makes a difference.
To those who are missing their mums today, or finding the day a little hard, we’re thinking of you too 💛

Give your piggies an extra cuddle tonight (if they allow it!) and take a moment to appreciate the care you give — it matters more than you know.

With love,�Guinea Pig Haven Perth 🐹💐

For Adoption: Fang 💙
Location: Cockburn
Status: Desexed male

Looking for: A lovely lady to love

Fang may have a fierce name, but he’s actually the cutest little gentleman with a soft, sweet nature. He’s a gentle soul who enjoys calm company, cosy hideys, and the simple joys of good food and a safe routine.

Now that he’s desexed, Fang is ready to meet a kind female companion who will appreciate his respectful, easygoing personality. He’s the sort of boy who blossoms with gentle reassurance and would make a wonderful partner for a lady pig looking for a devoted friend.

If you think Fang might be the perfect match for your girl, please send us a message — he’d love to meet his future lady 💙
