About Sirius & Alastor
Allow us to introduce you to the dynamic duo, Sirius and Alastor, two adorable and confident guinea pigs who can charm their way into anyone's heart.
Sirius and Alastor are best friends and they adore each other's company. Their friendship is so inspiring that it can brighten up anyone's day! They love to snuggle together in their hutch, and they take care of each other in the most endearing ways.
Aside from their cute looks, these two are also incredibly friendly. They're not shy in making their personalities known, nor in getting to know new people!
Any guinea pig expert will tell you, these cute critters love their food – and Sirius and Alastor are no exceptions. They love munching on their lettuce, and it's pure joy to watch their little mouths take bite after bite of it. Offering food is a wonderful way to gain their trust and bond with them. They'll become your best friends faster than you can say 'lettuce'!
Their current living situation provides them with everything they need, and they're thriving. But to reach their full potential, they need a caring new family who will continue to shower them with love.
Don't let their size fool you! Sirius and Alastor are small packages of boundless energy and pure joy. If you're looking for lovable companions who will light up your life with their antics and affection, then Sirius and Alastor could be the perfect addition to your family!

Adoption details
Regardless of the breed of animal you are looking to adopt, our adoption process is the same.
The first step of the process involves submitting an adoption application form. The form helps us understand a little bit more about you and your household and is used to figure out whether animal is the right fit for your household and what you are looking for, and also if your household is the right fit for the animal.
After a review process, shortlisted applicants will be contacted by one of our volunteer adoption coordinators usually by phone call or message. This is an informal conversation to discuss any questions we may have about the application and re-confirm any information provided. It is usually at at this point that we will organise a Meet & Greet with you and the animal.
It is a Strong Heart’s adoption policy to arrange a Meet & Greet with the prospective family and the animal before finalising the adoption. The Meet & Greet will allow the opportunity to visit the animal and have a pat and a play with them. The foster carer will tell you a bit about the animal's personality and what they have been like for the time they’ve been in their care. It is a great opportunity to ask the carer about the animals food, sleeping and any other health requirements.
If the Meet & Greet goes well on the day, in most cases you will be able to take the animal home straight away after payment of the adoption fee. All necessary paperwork including vet work history and transfer of ownership information will be sent via email within a few days unless otherwise specified.
