About us
Austin Guinea Pig Rescue is a tax-exempt non-profit organization (Tax ID 46-3542287) dedicated to rehoming guinea pigs, chinchillas, hamsters, gerbils, mice and hedgehogs in the Austin, Texas area. Our rescued animals are treated for any medical issues, socialized and fostered until they are ready to be adopted.
Our current President, Elizabeth Mack, has been involved in animal rescue for more than 30 years. The other members in our board of directors are Meg Luck (treasurer), and Amy Constant (secretary). The three comprise our Board of Directors and bring lifelong experience in animal rescue, rehabilitation and adoption.
We do not yet have a public shelter; instead, all our animals are in private foster homes.
Austin Guinea Pig Rescue has been featured in the news and is available for media interviews upon request!
Interviewed on A Variety of Pets Media on blogtalkradio and has also had some videos posted on YouTube by A Variety of Pets Media. More recently, Kim and Lucia were interviewed as part of the Acts of Impact podcast.
