Hi, I’m Quinoa

Looking to add a small, loveable companion to your family? Consider adopting a Guinea Pig, a charming and sociable pet that is sure to bring joy and warmth into your home.

Meet Quinoa, an adult female Abyssinian Guinea Pig with a bronze coat.

Abyssinian guinea pigs are known for being outgoing and playful, which is one reason they're so popular. They are oh-so-charming and they love their humans.
They're often described as being more vocal than other guinea pigs, too,
Of all the breeds of guinea pigs, the Abyssinian is one of the friendliest. They're very popular breed, known for its distinctive coat sporting 6 to 8 hair swirls or 'rosettes'.
