For those inquiring how males (and females) can adapt to a large herd setting, they can and do, and LA Guinea Pig Rescue is a GREAT resource to find education on how this can be done! We have learned SO much over the years, especially at the very beginning, from the world’s largest (and best IOHO) on guinea pig rescue, care and herds. We appreciate all the friendly emails and messages from Saskia and Scotty anytime we had a question and the educational videos have been a lifesaver, truly! 🐾 Thank you for maneuvering and understanding the world of guinea pigs so we can all learn from the best!!! 🐾

Though we did not know Mikayla, we can completely understand how negative criticism of a rescue can fall so personal and be so devastating, especially amid mental health challenges. What a horrific loss for animals and people alike and a vivid reminder to be kind. The words we say online do not go unaffected to those receiving them… 🦊 🪽

An animal rescuer, popular on social media, has died by su***de. Mikayla Raines founded Save a Fox and garnered more than 2 million subscribers on YouTube wi...

A big thank you to those who recently donated Midwest Habitat cages! We were able to create a long playpen for our girls to enjoy fresh air on our covered porch when weather permits! They love the breeze and being able to watch all the activity in the yard from a safe distance!!!

Welcome to Kentucky Cavies!

Welcome to Kentucky Cavies! We are a local, small group located in Louisville, KY. We rescue, rehabilitate and foster guinea pigs until we can find them a perfect forever home! We realize many piggies are in need of homes where they will be forever loved and properly cared for and it is our mission to educate the community on cavy care! We have a selective screening process for adoptions to ensure our foster pigs are placed in a suitable home and environment. Feel free to message us with any requests or questions!
