| Arizona's Piggie Poo Rescue, Inc is a non-profit small animal rescue specializing in guinea pigs, though we do foster buns, chins, rats, ferrets and other small animals. We are a network of private foster homes with 32 registered volunteers and two adoption locations, one in Chandler and one in Anthem North.
We are an alternative placement rescue for the municipal shelters in Arizona and many in California. Through our membership with PACC911, we participate in as many as 12 public adopt-a-thons each year.
Arizona's Piggie Poo Resuce has a four-part mission:
1. To relieve municipal shelters and private rescues of crisis capacity.
2. To eliminate the euthanasia of healthy adoptable cavies.
3. To expand our network with other rescues in the Southwest and to develop real community between our organizations.
4. To provide unlimited guidance to the public at large, thereby ensuring the expansion of qualified caregivers.
Critters for Cuddling Program
As part of APPR’s commitment to give back to the community, in 2007 we launched our Critters for Cuddling Program. Volunteers from Piggie Poo share the joys of cavies with the residents of Senior Care Homes throughout the valley.
Adopting a friend
In an effort to match the right pet with the right family, our adoption process includes an Application and an Adoption Contract. To start the process, please complete the application by clicking here or email us at info@piggypoo.org.

The adoption donation for an adult guinea pig is $25 for a single or "buddy" or $40 for a pair. Babies under 16 weeks of age are slightly more, with an adoption donation of $30 for a single "buddy" and $50 for a pair.
We rarely adopt out singles, unless they are for a "buddy" for your lonely piggie at home. However, we generally foster a couple adult males that would be fine on their own, with lots of human attention and interaction.
Each Piggie adopted from Arizona's Piggie Poo Rescue goes home with a "Welcome Home Kit" with lots of information and samples! Please feel free to visit Arizona's Piggie Poo Rescue for more information or to donate directly. One hundred percent of the donations made through The Bunny Basics will go directly to Arizona's Piggie Poo Rescue to help make the world a better place for all small animals.
