Cuddles & Bixon - Lort Smith Animal Hospital

Hi everyone, my name is Cuddles & Bixon

Bixon and Cuddles are a delightful bonded pair of guinea pigs looking for a home together. These sweet boys share a close friendship and spend their days enjoying each other’s company, making them the perfect duo for someone looking to welcome two charming companions into their family.

Bixon is the short-coated half of the pair, while Cuddles is a handsome Peruvian guinea pig with a beautiful long coat that will need regular grooming to keep him comfortable and tangle-free. Both boys are friendly, easy to handle, and enjoy gentle interaction with their people, making them wonderful pets for families and guinea pig lovers alike.

They are curious, social little characters who love their daily hay, fresh vegetables, and cosy places to relax. Whether they’re chatting away at mealtime or lounging side by side, Bixon and Cuddles are always happiest together.

These lovely boys are searching for a forever home where they can continue their friendship and receive the care, attention, and companionship they deserve. If you’re looking for a pair of affectionate, easy-going guinea pigs to brighten your days, Bixon and Cuddles could be the perfect match.

Things to consider before adopting an animal

Adopting an animal is a rewarding experience that will last a lifetime. But before you adopt a pet please take some time to consider the commitment you are about to make. Sometimes the excitement of pet ownership can overshadow factors that should be considered before adoption.

Adopting a shelter pet is a lifelong decision that will have a major impact to your normal, everyday life. Please remember that a cat or dog can live for up to 20 years and they will rely only on you for their wellbeing for their entire life.

Do I have time to exercise the dog every day?

Is the backyard big enough and is the fencing secure?
Does the whole family want a pet?
