impact today
Support Wheektopia by sponsoring a guinea pig today.
Caring for these small creatures with big hearts requires a great deal of time and money. Every guinea pig receives a medical exam from a veterinarian specializing in guinea pig care, individualized cage setups, quality nutrition, health support, and any additionally required support.
Your sponsorship helps pay for food, cage care, vet bills, and more. Each sponsor will receive specific updates regarding their sponsored pig and a Wheektopia sticker to show your support. Annual supporters also receive a photo of your sponsored guinea pig(s) and a certificate of sponsorship. Sponsorship costs $20/month or $240/annually and directly impacts your selected guinea pig.

Why give?
-
✽
Guinea pigs are often viewed as disposable pets and receive fewer spots in government run shelters that fall short of proper care. Wheektopia focuses on guinea pigs and provides proper care through spacious, clean cages, proper nutrition, and veterinary care for every pig.
-
✽
Wheektopia does not receive government funding and runs solely off donations and fund raising efforts. As a small, home based rescue, our founder and director makes up the difference between donations and need, covering most care out of pocket.
-
✽
All guinea pigs in Wheektopia live with us until they find the right family. They live in an environment designed for their comfort and well being, receive the best nutrition, care, and veterinary services possible.
-
✽
Wheektopia not only rescues and adopts guinea pigs, we provide sanctuary to guinea pigs who need special care, have difficulty adjusting to other environments, or are near their end of life.
-
✽
Through open communication with the community, one on one education with adopters and owners, and community outreach, Wheektopia provides positive support of the guinea pig community.
-
✽
Adopting guinea pigs supports a healthier approach to small animal ownership with healthy pigs going into environments best suited for their well being. Adopters enter into small animal ownership knowing what guinea pig care involves and that Wheektopia is there for them even after the adoption.
