This is so sad. I rescued a family of 7 piggies off of Craigslist. They were all living in a very small pet store cage with NO bedding. Literally just standing in their own urine and feces. Not only were they in a small pet store cage but they were living outside in Florida. They also had zero hay and one water bottle. The people I got them from kept calling them hamsters. They told me it was the dad and his babies. The mom had already passed away. As soon I got them home I separated them by gender (3 boys and 4 girls). Thankfully none of the female piggies were pregnant The next day I gave them all baths as they were absolutely filthy. They were all skin and bones. Sadly one of the little girls I named Pigeon passed away despite round the clock hand feeding, she was just too malnourished. I cried so hard. Now all the piggies are thriving and live in large C&C cages. I kept one of the girls and introduced her to one of my female herds and I kept all three boys. The other two girls just went to an amazing home yesterday. It's such a great thing that you did. Every piggie deserves love and proper care.

Over the years I’ve come to believe that stores shouldn’t sell Guinea pigs at all. They so often wind up deprived of their essential needs because people don’t take the time to see beyond their pet store enclosure. Thank you for rescuing these babies, I can only imagine what the fresh air, space and quality food feels like for them. They hit the Guinea pig lottery with you and that makes me smile.

@dawnfunck8928 10 месяцев назад

I also feel bad for the bettas. Pet supply stores shouldn't sell pets. But they say that selling pets creates incentive for prospective owners to purchase cages, food, etc, so the stores profit exponentially. ie, the price of the pet toys! Everything is overpriced.

@seacaptainminto7169 Год назад

I love how educational this was. When my dad came home with a guinea pig in a bird cage I knew right away that this wasn't right. I got a job, raised money for a better care but for the time being I kept him in a dog's XXL kennel just because I learned from videos like this and Google searches that the more space the better. Thank you for providing them with a good home and teaching others about their care

@snakewithapen5489 Год назад

Honestly an XXL dog crate is not a bad idea for temporary housing for a guinea pig or maybe a bunny. A 54 inch × 37 inch one is like 14sqf. I wouldn't have thought of that, but definitely better than most pet store cages & probably less expensive too.

@cyanosis8520 Год назад

It's so crazy to me that Billy lived in a 10 gallon tank. I have my dwarf hamster in an enclosure 4 TIMES that size , which is the recommended size. God I bet he felt so boxed in. I'm so happy you were able to rescue them, thank you

@sarahbeaulieu999 Год назад

Yes it's very important to teat the human with respect. Hording is a mental disorder and people with mental health struggles should be treated with respect and compassion. Allowing the animals to be taken out of the situation is a huge first step. You will always get further in life by being kind and informing someone nicely about care of their animal they can change, than you will being rude to them and treating them horribly

Hey Austin! There’s this rescue called st.Hubert’s in Jersey they take small pets I have adopted from there myself and they are amazing they even neutered him because they couldn’t pair him with any other males at the rescue. I’m sure they would be happy to help you find homes for the pigs if that’s what you chose to do. They have 4 locations but I think only the Madison location takes small pets but I could be wrong just thought I should share this knowledge! I also want to thank you for helping these pigs in there situation much love from me and my herd ❤️🙂

please note: if you get your grids from guineapigcagesstore a 2x6 is perfect for 4 pigs. their grids are bigger than the ones from amazon. rule of thumb is 2 grids more than pigs in the cage, but bigger is always better.

@LibrasReact Год назад

You can find the 14 inch grids on Amazon you just have to look through and read the item details as some listing are the 12 inch. I buy my 14 inch grids from Amazon and the bases from guinea pig cages store since I am horrible at cutting chloroplast and large sheets won't fit in my car.

@_TSC_46 Год назад

Wow how do you keep so many small pretty animals with cats? Genuinely curios as Ive always wanted a love bird but love cats and dogs as well

@jaymielemmon1983 Год назад

@The Second Circle I've always kept small animals and cats with no issues! My cats definitely don't bother my rats (they are too big!), they are curious about the hamsters, but just watch them waddle around the room. The bird is a little more challenging. They don't seem to notice him or care when he's quiet but if he takes off flying everyone has to watch lol! They act like they want to get him (do the little bird chatter things cats do) at him, but never mess with him. When I introduced new cats to my group (got a baby kitten in may so just did this recently), I typically just try to divert attention away from the animals when I see them become interested. Get out a toy and play with the cat instead of letting them fixate on it. I also verbally let them know I'm watching them notice the animal. I'll say their name and say "what are you doing with mommie's bird" to let them know I'm watching and they aren't going to get away with what they are thinking about. It also helps when the the bird hisses at them haha! That usually scares them off! But in all seriousness, I'm 100 % in the room, closely monitoring interspecies interactions when they take place. I would never forgive myself if something happened to one of my babies because of my neglect.

@@teijaflink2226 I am a little late on replying to you but I so agree, especially those people who can’t afford that much stuff and then they see Guinea pigs and they wanted them and “would feel bad” if they didn’t take them, it’s dumb because if you can barely take care of yourself how are you going to take care of animals too, the animals usually end up in a pretty bad living situation.

They are so adorable! Thank you so much for rescuing them! Guinea pigs have my heart, and it breaks my heart that they are so neglected and ignored. As you said, they each have their own personalities, and they are individuals just like you and me. But please, don't hesitate to educate people whenever you get he chance! Even in rescue situations, you never know if those people are going to go out and get more, one day. Plus, they can educate their friends! Speaking as a once, ignorant piggy-slave myself, I was woefully uneducated at first, too. Every time I think of the circumstances my first piggy was living in when he was "gifted" to me, I cringe. I cringe even more when I think of how he lived with me for a few weeks, before I went to buy him supplies and found a book about piggies. This was ages ago, so the only book available was through the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Luckily, the book stated that piggies could learn their own name. After discovering this, I searched for more books. I found out all I needed to know - except, strangely enough, that it's normal for piggies to eat their own poop and that they need to eat hay in order to poop. I went for years without knowing these things, even though I'd taken him to the vet more than once. I'd have been EXTREMELY grateful to anyone who had told me the proper way to care for him! So please, DON'T HESITATE TO EDUCATE! Thanks again for the wonderful video! I look forward to following these precious piggies' stories!

@teijaflink2226 Год назад

I don't understand how people can be nice and then totally neglect their pets needs it's not at all hard to look up guinea pig care. I'm now super worried about all the puss this person has and what will happen to them. It annoys me so much when people only get animals as their own emotional support or collect them just because their cute and then neglect the animals needs, like people who lock up their dogs in small prison cages (crates) for several hours. Of course great to have a crate as a home base (just a small bed should be fine too for most dogs) or in case but I could never lock up the dog in the crate (sure totally fine aas example when you're away if the dog can't calm down but not constantly every day), I don't understand people who do and for several hours every day too, it must be so boring for the dogs that they can't walk around and play when they feel like it and specially as people who do this probably don't exercise their dogs enough and that's why they're disturbing and have to be locked up in a cage. But there's definitely no need to lock up small, sweet dogs like pugs if you'rea decent owner and know where your limits are and don't get like 10 pugs.

@@mauiwowielmsv that really couldn’t be further from the truth. Animals and kids go hand in hand. Not only does owning pets teach the children compassion and care for others, they learn a lot about nature observing them, they learn responsibility and their immune systems are strengthened by interacting with animals. I have 4 kids and the youngest two want guinea pigs after having some at school and looking after our friends piggies for a week. My son says Guinea pigs are his favourite animal. So we are watching videos like these and I’m using it as an opportunity to teach him how much work is involved and to gauge his understanding on the commitment. We have a dog and 3 cats at the moment and have owned rats in the past. As many as 16 at a time. I feel bad for kids when people tell me they have no pets at home. Whenever people come around here their kids are always obsessed with the animals.

Please report the lady to animal control... no matter how nice she was.. the dogs also need to get out of there.

@catherinem.8626 Год назад

Yes agree.

@BooksToAshes Год назад

Yes, she’s going to keep abusing animals if no one does anything

@NaeniaNightingale Год назад

Yeah by not reporting people like that you end up a part of the problem, letting them continue abuse animals.

@MICROWAVED_SEUNGBERRY Год назад

Yes I fully agree

Thank you for saving these piggies and giving them a fresh start in life ❤️ and for giving constructive criticism and knowledge without shaming the previous owner. I love the stranger things theme!!!!

@FinnyAde26 Год назад

I just want to say thank you so much for rescuing these pigs! It is so sad to know that many pigs are probably treated this way but take heart knowing your videos are helping so many get the life they deserve! I love the names you picked for them. I think it would be awesome if you could keep Elle and Billy and get him neutered and then they could live together lol. My local pet store used to sell their guinea pigs with a starter kit that was a 20 gallon fish tank with sugar filled pellets and it was just awful. People go to big chain pet stores and see guinea pigs in tanks and just assume, without doing research, that’s how they can live. It’s all just so sad. Best of luck with everything you do, keep on!! You are awesome ❤️

@abbyf1464 Год назад

That’s so awesome that you got to rescue these guys! Obviously do what you want to do and what you are comfortable with, but you could try and bond billy with one of your single males. Love your channel ❤️

They are so adorable glad you rescued them

I was really impressed with your video, the knowledge you know besides going ahead and rescuing those guinea pigs, so thoughtful of you. But I learned a lot from you, so thank you!!!

Thank you for doing this and giving them proper care.

@maxventunosei5017 Год назад

Wonderful video, wonderful initiative, wonderful job! And it's very fitting that you saved Billy from a neglecting family 💛

@whatsthestorymorningglory61 Год назад

I had to skip to the part of the preparations of the rescue because I cannot handle more animal cruelty right now. You are gorgeous, Austin! Thanks für saving them!

Cavies are such sweet little souls. We had many for pets all the years my kids were growing up. I had read as much as I could find on them at the public library, (this is before internet) but no one had mentioned hay. Ours had grass, and I think we got hay from a farm several times for fun…but was not aware for too long time that they needed it. I’d love to have a couple of them again some day.

Momma piggie looks like one of my girls that passed away last year 😭 You're so awesome for taking on those piggies and giving them a better life. ❤

@laurens5890 Год назад

I just came across your channel. You are absolutely lovely. Thank you for all you do for these poor little creatures.

@wonderbugone Год назад

Oh, the feeling of giving a little animal more space than they had before is so gratifying 😩 I'm a degu guardian and years back it was so amazing seeing my goos' excitement as they explored the first giant homemade enclosure I made after being in a wire cage which could never meet their running space needs (as no un-modified commercially available cage can). And rehoming a poor degu who was living alone in a tank like this from a child who didn't want her anymore. Being able to give her friends, freedom of movement, and a proper diet was amazing 🥲

@nathaliecastillo357 Год назад

I watched the whole video! there was a lot going on and I enjoyed watching how you helped out these Guinea pigs so thank you for this video!

@The_Hamsters_place Месяц назад

I am a hamster owner for over five years, and never in my life I’ve seen a hamster( wayyy smaller then a guinea pig) live in a ten gallon tank. In our community, the smallest enclosure possible is 450 sq inches, so putting a Guinea pig in something smaller then that is absolutely crazy and disgusting.

This almost made me cry especially how they looked around and just looked so happy after that

@gingerbaghel1674 Год назад

I love watching your channel, it’s such a comfort. Thank you for doing these rescues. I aspire to do the same. I rescued my rats from a bad situation, but don’t have the room right now to rescue more :( I hate it lol

Mikey is seriously one of the cutest dogs ever, he's just like Dad! Dad! Dad! Where's MY new toy?! 😂

I don't understand?

@beepboop1930 Год назад

oh god. having owned and researched guinea pigs myself for years and forming emotional attachments based on their intelligence and little quirks, i will never understand how someone could think this is okay. i have 2 right now, and whenever i have given them additional space by upgrading their home they have made full use of it, so i cannot imagine how frustrating it must be for these 5 in such tiny spaces. thank you for rescuing them ❤️

That is heart breaking to see them in the tanks. :( So so happy they are in your care! Love your videos!

@danasteimann502 Год назад

Awesome that you rescued the babies !!😍 I’m sure they are so excited about the change !! I am sure pigs are very neglected small pets, but also hamster and small reptiles. Basically everything that you can get at the pet store 😫😱

@snakewithapen5489 Год назад

Fish are so bad- people actually expect their fish to have a max lifespan of 2 weeks and it's horrifically depressing. I think they are the most killed small pet

@Hayley0412 Год назад

I love this video, I rescued dogs, I have had a lovely time surrounded by my dogs, sadly as they are older you have to be non selfish and let them go. I lost my chocolate Labrador last year and I still miss him every day! I lost my leg in an accident so no more fostering now, I need to recover before i can rescue more! Mikey is so cute, I love how you took him in and the love he has for you! ❤️❤️❤️

@blackwolfhomestead7367 Год назад

I cried so much during this video. My heart goes out to you and all those babies. If I lived closer to you I would soooo come get them. I saved one who lived in a fish tank too, panda. The people didn't even know he was a male. They said he was a female. Now he is living in the a 4ft by 4ft diy wooden cage with plexiglass on 3 sides. Need to get him fixed so he can have ladies in with him.

@Mintpuppy17 Год назад

Oh, the urine block in that fish tank... they are all so cute and beautiful. Thanks for taking the time to rescue them.

@person8979 Год назад

i did a recue situation for 3 guinea pigs, and a hedgehog, the food they were rehomed with, was straight up moldy! :( now the 2 girls are in a 5x2 cc cage (14" grids) and the 1 boy and hedgehog each in a 2x3 :) slowly but surely adding more hides and toys (gotta love being on a tight budget). but regardless im so happy to have them in better setups then i got them in! and im so glad to see this succesful rescue story to!

@emilydearing777 Год назад

The black one, El, really reminds me of a past piggie I had that passed away. Her name was Cocoa, and she was also very outgoing and brave. She basically came tame, while her partner was really skittish. 😅 I got them from a local rescue and I have grown my love for piggies ever since. ❤ thank you for this i

@bigappleprepper Год назад

I actually saw this listing when looking for a solo pig to be a cage mate for my baby pig that ended up alone after my senior piggie passed away. I cringed so much seeing this listing. Im so happy to see they got rescued!
