Qld Guinea Pig Refuge Open Days!
|
The Qld Guinea Pig Refuge does not have an actual 'Refuge'. All our
guinea pigs live with foster carers in their homes. The Refuge holds open days on the first and third Saturday of every month at The Bald Hills Scout Den 508 Bracken Ridge Road Bracken Ridge For details, click on the address above or refer to the map below Open days provide an opportunity to meet our guinea pigs on foster care, adopt, visit our QGPR Piggy Shop, and purchase food and hay. You can also have your guinea pig groomed at our Piggy Parlour, which offers nail trims, mite and worm treatment, bathing (during warmer months only), grooming and clipping. Don't forget to ask about our loyalty programs! We also have various food sales points in the Brisbane area. |

Adoptable of the Month!
GingerDo you have a single male guinea pig looking for a friend? Please meet the gorgeous, 3-year-old Ginger! He's a cheeky little fella who loves to burrow under his fleece bedding to get extra snug but is quick to come out when he hears the rustling of hay or veggies being prepared! He loves to zoomie around his cage at the sound of food or when his foster siblings start chattering and doesn't hesitate to make his opinion heard!
Ginger is looking for a male friend to spend the rest of his life with. To help them be the bestest friends they can be, they will need a 1.2m cage or bigger with their own hidies, water bottles and food bowls so they have their own space when they need it. Could you be Ginger's furever home? Please note that if you would like to adopt Ginger, you will need to bring your guinea pig to an open day at Bracken Ridge for a meet and greet, as not all guinea pigs will pair successfully. Click here to learn more about Ginger... To fill out an adoption form for Ginger, please click here.
