Meet Marcus Aurelius! This cutie was surrendered to DPR along with several other guinea pigs when their owners could no longer care for them. Marcus has black and white smooth silky hair with one little cowlick right on the top of his head which makes a little bowl shape, it's adorable. He enjoys being held and pet and is very sweet. He loves when it's time for his daily salad of fresh fruits and veggies. Guinea pigs do well in pairs, and this little guy would probably love to have a piggie buddy at his new home.

Check out his cute video at the bottom of his website!

 All our guinea pigs see the vet for a wellness visit and nail trim prior to adoption. 

Guinea pigs have wonderful personalities- they are gentle and we have yet to come across any who bite, and they keep a daytime schedule! They form close bonds with their people, similar to cats and dogs. Did you know they are able to recognize people based on scent, sound and sight?! These sweet animals make wonderful pets! 

If you are interested in adopting, pleas fill out a "Guinea Pig Application"   at   www.DelawarePetRescue.org/forms    

   Adoption fee is: $30

This website is updated daily.  If the animal you are interested in adopting is listed as "available for adoption", that means the animal is still in DPR's care. 


*Please note - we do not do on-site meet and greets. Potential adopters can speak to the guinea pig's foster mom on the phone or do a meeting on Zoom or Facetime if desired to virtually meet the guinea pig. You can pick your guinea pig up "curb side". Guinea pigs can be returned with a full refund for up to one week. *

We are an all-volunteer 501(c)3 charity. The adoption fee helps to offset our standard and non-standard vet bills.
