The Little Rebel Gang

Guinea Pigs

Our guinea pig program rescues, rehabilitates, and rehomes guinea pigs in Melbourne. These tiny rebels deserve big love — and they've got plenty of personality to share.

Why Guinea Pigs?

Guinea pigs are one of the most surrendered small animals in Australia. They're social, intelligent, and incredibly affectionate — but they're often misunderstood and under-cared-for.

The Little Rebel Gang exists to change that. Every guinea pig in our care gets proper vet treatment, companionship, and a real shot at a great home.
