Qld Guinea Pig Refuge Open Days!

An important message re COVID-19 and open days
Picture
Qld Guinea Pig Refuge is currently closed and will reopen on 16 January 2021. Emails will be unmonitored until after 4 January 2021.

Qld Guinea Pig Refuge is committed to protecting the health of our volunteers and members of the public and minimising the spread of COVID-19.

​In line with the Queensland Government’s road map on easing COVID-19 restrictions from ​3 July 2020, Qld Guinea Pig Refuge has recommenced open days on the first and third Saturday of each month, with a limit of 40 people (including volunteers) in the den at any time. Pre-approved adoptions only are available, and adopters will be allocated a time to attend to collect their new furry family members. Please follow our Facebook page for updates.

What should you feed your guinea pigs?

Diet is an extremely important, and sometimes unknown aspect of caring for guinea pigs.  Qld Guinea Pig Refuge sells top quality grassy or barley hay and our own Pig'n'Mix, so you know your guinea pigs are getting food that meets their dietary needs.
​ 
​To help you help your guinea pigs, we've created our own recommended fruit and vegetables guidelines which can be downloaded from the link below.​

Love Rabbits? Want to help?

As we know, rabbits are illegal pets in Queensland.  However, that doesn't stop us from falling in love with them, and doesn't mean you can't help. If you would like to help rabbits in need, please consider donating or visit the Rabbit Sanctuary in Rushforth. The amazing team at the Rabbit Sanctuary offer homes to rescued and abandoned rabbits found in Queensland and do all their vet work to find them loving, forever and legal homes.
