Cavies

Longhair and Shorthair Guinea Pigs

About our Cavies

Cavies, more commonly known as Guinea Pigs, are our most sought after Periwinkle Pet.

We specialize in dilute colors, such as lilac, rainbow and beige.

​

Our main focus with cavies is quality family pets, but we do strive to breed them to meet ARBA show standards as well.

​

Our cavy breeds are mostly longhair, but we do have a small group of short hair cavies for those who don't want to maintain a longer coat.​​
