Hello, I'm Rocket

I'm a 2-year-old Guinea Pig from Sheffield rehoming, advice and behaviour unit and I'm looking for my forever home. Please read my profile below to find out more.

About me

Rocket is a sweet girl who’s looking for a loving home where she can build her confidence. She recently lost her cage mate and has been missing having a friend, so she’ll need to join a single neutered male or a group of females to ensure she has the companionship guinea pigs thrive on.

Rocket's unique charm shines through when she feels settled, she loves to snuggle in and munch away on her favourite food - dandelion leaves! She also enjoys quiet interaction and will benefit from a calm, patient approach to help her feel secure.

Rocket can live with children who understand the importance of giving her time and space to settle. She could also share her home with dogs or cats, provided they are kept separate for her safety. Rocket will need a setup with plenty of tunnels, hides, and hay for foraging. A varied diet and opportunities for enriching activities will help her stay healthy and happy.

If you’re looking for a gentle, endearing guinea pig who will bring joy through her daily routine and adorable antics, Rocket will be the perfect addition to your home.
