Albert is a friendly younger male guinea pig. He was reported to have fought with another GP before,and as such may prefer to live alone, but potentially can do okay with a well matched friend.

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!

This rat is part of a group of undersocialized rats from an overcrowding situation. He can be friendly but is currently very shy around people and will will need a patient adopter who can work with him to be more comfortable around people. He may do best with another well matched more social male rat.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 give us a call!

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.

Skittles is part of a group that came to us from an overcrowding situation, and as such we don’t have a ton of information of what he is like in a home. Skittles has been friendly here and is currently living with one of his brothers, who he can go home with or can leave as solo rabbit. He was playful in his foster home, but would likely do best with a rabbit experienced adopter that can plan to give him plenty of time to slowly adjust to the home, and all the people in it.

We recommend providing a safe indoor enclosure that allows a rabbit to stretch their legs and move around.

Meet Freya! This stunning mare is ready for her next chapter. When she first arrived at Nevins she was scraggly, scared, and skinny but after a few months of groceries and TLC, she has started to blossom into a sweet and sensitive young lady.

Freya has just started learning the basics of ground manners including haltering and leading. She is a quick study but can be nervous and unsure when she is in new situations. She benefits from a confident, but gentle handler who can provide her with clear direction since she is still so young and learning new things every day! Freya currently stalls overnight and turns out during the day. She has turned out with a few mares since her arrival here and has done very well. She tends to fall somewhere in the middle of the pack and really enjoys the companionship of other horses. You will always find her grooming one of her friends!

Freya can be nervous for both the farrier and veterinarian but has been steadily improving in both of those areas. She no longer requires sedation for her trims but is looking for a patient adopter to help her continue to navigate these situations successfully! She is currently barefoot, sound, and has no known limitations that would prevent her from getting into work. She could go in any direction but will need an adopter willing to take their time to give her a solid foundation. If you have experience starting young horses, this is one you won’t want to miss!

This handsome hunk is Whisky! Though he is an older gentleman, you truly wouldn’t know it by looking at him! Whisky has been lovingly cared for along with his good friend Rhylie and now these two are ready for their next adventure.

Whisky was described by his previous owner as enthusiastic, energetic, loving, loyal, and curious. In our short time getting to know him so far we would certainly agree with this assessment! He loves visitors, particularly children and is an absolute dream to groom and dote on. Whisky has had some time off from ridden work in the last 5 years but currently has no known limitations that would prevent him from getting back into work. While his serious riding days are behind him, he would be a good candidate for some low level riding. He’s got some fancy moves in there too! We have only worked with him on the ground so far, but he offers a very nice side pass and has previously done some beginning dressage. Whisky is also a perfect patient for both the vet and farrier.

Whisky and his buddy Rhylie have lived together for a very long time, so the two of them are quite bonded. They are able to stall separately as long as they are close to one another, and over time we think they would benefit from some periods of separation just for their own well-being. We are open to placing these two together or separately depending on the situation and the progress we are able to make in creating some distance between them while they are at Nevins.

If you’re a fan of the Arabian breed, you will love our two gray girls – Shania and Sky! Shania is a very affectionate and easy going mare. She loves to be groomed and doted on!

Shania has lived with her sister Sky for her whole life, so the two of them are quite bonded. They are able to stall separately as long as they are close to one another, and over time we think they would benefit from some periods of separation just for their own well-being. We are open to placing these two mares together or separately depending on the situation and the progress we are able to make in creating some distance between them while they are at Nevins.

So far Shania has been the boss of every herd she’s joined. Integrating her into an existing/established herd would require some careful management and introductions, but she could just be the leader your herd has been searching for!

Shania has been out of ridden work for about 10 years now, but we have not discovered any physical limitations that would prevent her from coming back into work. Shania walks, trots, and canters beautifully on the lunge line and offers some nice lateral movement and hind/fore quarter yields from the ground. At her age, her days of serious riding and work are likely behind her but she may be up for the occasional mosey or even some pony rides potentially.

She is a very easy keeper and maintains her weight nicely with a minimal amount of balancer grain and first-cut hay. She is patient for vet and farrier care, and has done well living out 24/7 as well as stalling overnight since she has been with us. Shania would make a really fun project for an experienced adopter or would be just as happy to retire early and be a beloved pet.
