Meet Beth
A little about you…
I work full time as well as foster care and volunteer for QGPR so life is very busy!
How did you become a piggy volunteer and foster parent?
My family has had piggies for a number of years, and needed to find a friend for an older piggy who had been left alone with the passing of her sister. After adopting from another shelter, I became a foster carer and volunteer. In 2013, with a group of likeminded friends, I helped start QGPR. And so it began… My daughter and I together have 14 piggies (mostly foster fails) of our own as well as any number of foster piggies at any given time.
Most memorable piggie moment?
There are so many! The best moments would be seeing a piggy going to a loving home when they have come to us in a neglected and unloved condition and knowing that you have played a part in changing that piggy’s life for the better!
What is something people may not know about guinea pigs?
Guinea pigs are very social animals and need to have a friend or they can become lonely and depressed.
