PetSmart has committed to ending the sale of turtles, tortoises, and several other species. Now they must do the same for guinea pigs!

CWI is thrilled to be able to share that Saffron, the guinea pig who suffered a massive shoulder-to-shoulder gash, has now completely recovered!

Guinea pig found sliced from shoulder to shoulder - help him today.

CWI is happy to share that all of the guinea pigs in CWI's care from the recent hoarding situation in L.A. are healing well and increasing in their willingness to be social.

We are happy to share that the 7 male guinea pigs rescued from the hoarding situation who are in CWI's care are all recovering well and gaining weight.

A horrific situation involving more than 400 guinea pigs is unfolding in Los Angeles. The guinea pigs were found at a private residence by a rescue based in L.A. this past weekend. The guinea pigs were both caged and running loose, and none had adequate food or water.

CWI is asking the new CEO of PetSmart to immediately end the sale of guinea pigs in their stores. As the largest seller of guinea pigs in the United States, an end to sales at PetSmart would have a profound impact on the numbers of guinea pigs in rescues, shelters, or abandoned "in the wild".
