Adoptable of the Month
CharlieDo you have a single male guinea pig looking for a friend? Please meet Charlie, a beautiful big chunky old boy who is also looking for a friend to spend his days with. He loves his food and happily sits on your lap for treats and cuddles.
At 5 years young, Charlie would be considered a senior. The life span of a guinea pig is generally five to seven years, however with good nutrition, care and love, they have been know to live for a lot longer. Please note that if you would like to adopt Charlie, 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 Charlie. To fill out an adoption form for Charlie, please click here. 
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.
