Call About Small Animals

Meet the Small Animals

Guinea Pigs

Guinea Pigs

Guinea Pigs

Cute brown and white guinea pig on white background.

Guinea pigs are sociable, vocal pets that often greet familiar people with little squeaks and whistles. They need a roomy, well-ventilated habitat, unlimited grass hay, fresh water, a suitable guinea pig food and daily vitamin C. They generally do best with a compatible guinea pig companion. Our team can help you choose bedding, hideouts and supplies for a comfortable setup.

Hamsters

Guinea Pigs

Guinea Pigs

Hamsters are curious explorers that are usually most active in the evening and at night. They need ample floor space, deep bedding for burrowing, a properly sized solid running wheel and safe places to hide. Most hamsters should live alone. Ask us about the species currently available and the habitat that suits it; different hamsters have different space and handling needs.

Gerbils

Guinea Pigs

Hedgehogs

Gerbils are busy diggers that enjoy tunneling, chewing and exploring. A deep bedding area, secure enclosure, chew toys and a suitable diet give them ways to express those natural behaviors. They are social animals and often do best in an established, compatible pair. Our team can help you plan a habitat before bringing them home.

Hedgehogs

Chinchillas

Hedgehogs

Hedgehogs are unusual, mostly nocturnal pets that need patient handling and a carefully managed environment. A secure habitat, appropriate food, a solid exercise wheel and a reliably warm temperature are important parts of their care. If you are considering a hedgehog, stop in to learn about its routine and setup before deciding whether it fits your household.

Ferrets

Chinchillas

Chinchillas

Ferrets are playful, intelligent animals that need daily supervised time outside their enclosure and plenty of enrichment. Their homes must be secure, and rooms should be carefully ferret-proofed before playtime. They also need a species-appropriate diet and routine veterinary care. Ask our team about current ferret availability and what to have ready before taking one home.

Chinchillas

Chinchillas

Chinchillas

Chinchillas are soft-furred, active pets that enjoy jumping, exploring, and chewing. They need a roomy, well-ventilated habitat, a cool environment, appropriate hay and food, safe chew items, and regular dust baths. Their delicate bodies call for gentle handling. Ask our team about chinchilla availability and the supplies needed before bringing one home.

Start With the Right Habitat

Every small animal needs a habitat suited to its species. We can help you choose the right enclosure, bedding, food, water setup, hideouts, toys, and enrichment.

We’ll also talk through daily care, activity hours, social needs, and ongoing supplies so you can choose a pet that fits your home.
