Adoption information
About Cliff
Cliff is a sweet guinea pig who is looking for a calm and understanding furever home. He can be a little nervous at first, especially in new environments, but with time, patience, and gentle care he will begin to feel more comfortable and show his lovely personality.
Cliff would prefer a home where he can live predominantly indoors, where he will feel safe and secure. He may also enjoy some supervised outdoor time when the weather is mild and suitable.
As a social animal, Cliff would love to have a guinea pig companion. He would do well in a home with another friendly guinea pig, or a home that is willing to adopt a companion for him in the future so he doesn't have to be alone.
Because Cliff is still building his confidence, he isn't very comfortable with handling yet. His new family will need to be patient and allow him to build trust slowly over time with calm, positive interactions.
Cliff would also benefit from plenty of enrichment activities throughout the day. Tunnels, hideaways, chew toys, and foraging opportunities will help keep him mentally stimulated and help him gain confidence in his environment.
If you have a gentle home and the patience to help a nervous guinea pig blossom, Cliff could make a wonderful little companion. 🐹💚
Adoption details
Our adoption process is designed to match you with the right pet, the first time. Our team are experts at rehoming animals who have specific needs that match your lifestyle, to ensure every adoption placement will last a lifetime.
At our Peninsula site, adoption hours are 12pm – 4pm. You are welcome to attend our reception office without an appointment to begin our adoption process during adoption hours.
The adoption areas are not free to walk through, and you will need to chat with our staff to confirm that a potential adoption is a good match.
Once the adoption has been discussed, a staff member will facilitate a walk-through of the adoption areas or have an animal brought to you in a greeting area.
