Doves can be tamed but tend to be more “hands off” birds. They tend to vocalize throughout the day with a “coo”, dissimilar to the screeching or whistling of many other birds. Doves can be found around the world, and can live up to 10 years with proper nutrition and care. We recommend that doves live in pairs or groups whenever possible.

We recommend a cage that is at least 32”x23” (Width x depth) with a maximum of ?-¾” bar spacing. Cages should include lots of flat surfaces to perch on, trays for food/water and lots of toys for enrichment. Unlike many other species of birds, doves are unable to climb up cage bars, and tend to move back and forth making a wider cage more appealing to them. Doves should be provided with regular opportunities for bathing, and unlike parrots require grit as part of their regular diet to aid in digestion.

The needs of each dove are unique and if you have questions about the right type of enclosure for the dove you are interested in, please let us know in your inquiry! We are happy to provide guidance and advice.

If you’ve always wanted backyard goats, let this be your sign – now is the time! We have a large herd of goats at Nevins Farm who are all looking for new homes. This herd comes in all sizes, ages, and colors and you’ll fall in love with their hilarious antics. These goats must stay within Massachusetts and should be a closed herd (the only ruminants on your property) due to some potential disease exposure, but that also makes them great for folks who are newer to farm animals or have just recently gained the capacity to adopt. Goats are very social animals, so we are aiming to send them home in groups of at least three so they will always have companionship and playmates. We’re here to support you and answer whatever questions you may have, so please reach out if you think you could offer a loving home to some of these wonderful goats!

Nettle is an appy pony through and through – smart as a whip, cute as a button, and has the sass to match it all! She was quite fearful when she first arrived with this herd and didn’t seem to have any positive associations with people. She avoided any type of touch and did not know how to lead or respond to pressure. She has come leaps and bounds since she has been with us and is showing so much potential! She can now turn out for the day in her paddock and be caught to come into her stall at night which is truly worlds away from where she was when we met her in December.

Nettle is up to date on vet and farrier care. We don’t know much about her history, so adopters would need to explore what she knows and be ready to start from scratch with her. We are seeking a very experienced adopter who is capable of taking on a horse who is both very green and is a bit wary of people and their intentions. If you think you could be Nettle’s special person, please fill out an adoption inquiry by clicking the “inquire” button!

Meet Bunnicula! He likes affection on his own terms and is looking for an adopter that is patient and has experience working with rabbits. He would do best in an adult onlt home where they can read his body language.

We recommend providing a safe indoor enclosure that allows a rabbit to stretch their legs and move around. A rabbit enclosure should be a minimum of 12 sq ft and have a solid bottom. We ask to see a photo of the enclosure you plan on keeping the rabbit in, as well as it’s dimensions, prior to sending the animal home.
* We are currently closed to the general public but are scheduling appointments for adoption.

Meet Flounder! This spirit cat is ready to swim their way into their next home.

Spirit cats are very shy with people, and live in your home but are rarely seen – hence their name. They are cats who coexist in your home, and sometimes may grant you the opportunity to touch them – or they may not. Despite being shy with people, spirit cats are usually great with other cats! They are used to living with many cats, and can make excellent companions for cats in your home. It’s not uncommon for a spirit cat to get used to one or two people over time, and those people will be allowed to touch them and they may even choose to hang out near you or sleep on your bed at night. They are a great choice for people with a quiet household, who want to make a difference for an individual cat. Patience and understanding are the best tools when welcoming a spirit cat into your home. It’s important to know that spirit cats won’t magically turn into a normal acting cat – what you see is what you get for a long time, maybe always.

They are a fine choice for situations where you don’t have a lot of time to devote to a pet as they don’t require a lot of attention from humans. They are not a good choice for a busy home, including those with small children.

Sam and Bob are a bonded pair looking to go home together!

Guinea pigs can make wonderful pets! They are very social creatures which means that they generally need at least one companion! Of course guinea pigs should only be kept with other piggies of the same sex. A pair of guinea pigs needs at minimum 10.5 sq. feet of cage space, or roughly 30″ x 50″ with a solid bottom, but more room is always encouraged! Guinea pigs can be quite noisy which can be lovely as long as you are expecting it!

* We are currently closed to the general public but are scheduling appointments for adoption. If you would like to schedule a browsing appointment to meet guinea pigs available for adoption, please click on the blue “Inquire” link above to get started.

Can’t adopt right now, but want to help animals? If you are in a position to give, please consider making a gift of any size to help us provide essential services to animals in need, at www.mspca.org/nevinsgift.

Budgerigars, the most common parakeet we see, are native to Australia where they live in massive flocks in the grasslands. Parakeets tend to be docile, gentle, can be easy to tame and can even talk! Despite their small size, these birds can have large vocabularies and can make a wonderful training companion. We recommend that parakeets live in pairs or groups whenever possible. Parakeets can live up to 7-15 years with proper nutrition and care, and can be a loyal companion.

We recommend a cage that is at least 27”x24” (Width x depth) with a maximum of ½” bar spacing. Cages should include lots of perches, trays for food/water and lots of toys for enrichment. Nests can be provided but should be removed if any females begin to lay eggs. We do not recommend a seed only diet as it can lead to malnutrition and other potential issues, please consult your vet for specific diet recommendations.

We will need to see a picture of your enclosure before sending Lola and Tweety home.

Lloyd is currently living as a solo male, as he was no longer getting along with his brother. He may be interested in having other male rats as friends in the future.

Rats are nocturnal, highly social and extremely intelligent animals! Due to the highly social nature of rats we prefer to match them with homes with existing rats, or to adopters looking to take home two or more rats. Rats can be food driven (and great foragers!) making them excellent animals to train. We always recommend the use of positive reinforcement training with your animals, and are happy to provide more information on this topic.

We recommend providing a safe indoor enclosure that allows the rat plenty of space to exercise. The minimum cage size should be 2’x2.5’x2’, with good ventilation (no glass enclosures) and must have a solid base. Preferably the shelter includes multiple levels, with appropriate use of linens or paper bedding and lots of rat appropriate toys. Rats should never be housed with other animals, each species should always have its own housing.

The needs of each rat are unique and if you have questions about the right type of enclosure for the rat you are interested in, please let us know in your inquiry! We are happy to provide guidance and advice.

Such a handsome, speckled face! Max is 6 years old and such a good boy. He`s been through quite a few changes in a fairly short period, so his adopters should give him plenty of time to decompress and realize that he`s finally in his forever home. This means lots of stay at home time, with just household members, while everyone gets acquainted. Max has great house manners- house trained, loves his walks and then snuggling into a cozy dog bed. None of those silly puppy shenanigans, when you adopt this good boy. Max may eventually be able to have a well matched friend outside the home, but he should be your only dog in the home. He may be able to join a home with a dog savvy cat. Teens that will help Max feel comfortable as he settles in would be okay. If Max sounds like just the right guy for you, please start by filling out the adoption inquiry form. MSPCA at Nevins Farm Adoption Inquiry mspca.org
