Sprout 🌱
Sprout is a sensitive little soul who is looking for a calm, quiet home where he can build trust at his own pace. He’s naturally very sweet and incredibly gentle, but touch is still a bit scary for him. We’re working on it, and he’s making progress, but he’ll need a human who understands that trust isn’t built overnight.
Now, if you’re holding vegetables? That’s a different story. Sprout absolutely loves his food and would quite happily trade your entire existence for a decent selection of leafy greens. Bring snacks and you’ll quickly become his favourite person (until someone else arrives with cucumber).
The biggest thing missing from Sprout’s life is a guinea pig friend. He desperately needs another confident piggy to show him that the world isn’t such a scary place. We truly believe having a companion will help him blossom into the happy little pig we know he can be.
Because guinea pigs are social animals, Sprout will only be rehomed to a home with existing guinea pigs for bonding. Humans are great for delivering snacks, but they simply can’t replace another guinea pig.
If you’ve got a lonely piggy looking for a gentle best friend, and the patience to let Sprout discover that people aren’t actually terrifying, you’ll be rewarded with one very sweet little veggie loving companion. ❤️🥬

Gerbils 🐹
We currently have 1 girl (Lottie) and 3 boys (MoMo, Drax and Rocket) available for adoption, and their little personalities are starting to shine through. What began as a collection of suspicious fluff nuggets is quickly turning into a group of playful, curious, and very entertaining little characters.
They’re getting more comfortable with people and handling every day, and we’re discovering that beneath the tiny paws and twitchy noses are some seriously sweet little souls. Well, mostly sweet. There may be the occasional plot to redecorate their enclosure at 3am.
They love digging, exploring, rearranging absolutely everything you’ve carefully set up for them, and generally causing adorable levels of mischief.
If you’re looking for pets that are fun, fascinating to watch, and packed with personality despite being smaller than your average TV remote, one of these groups could be perfect for you.
Please remember gerbils are social animals and must live with other gerbils, so they will be rehomed in suitable pairs/groups.
They may be small, but they have the confidence of animals at least 100 times their size. 😌
