Wee Companions Small Animal Adoption is the greatest small animal rescue group in South California. The best way to introduce them is probably to summarize the information they give on their website www.weecompanions.com.

Wee Companions is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit devoted to the rescue and care of guinea pigs, rats, hamsters, mice, chinchillas and other small exotics from shelters, places of abandonment, and from persons relinquishing their pets.

This organization’s top priority is finding permanent homes for unwanted animals. Wee Companions is an 100% volunteer organization and all monies raised are invested into the care of the animals.

Whenever possible, this organization offers a safe house to these animals, irrespective of age, temperament, or health status. All animals receive veterinary care and socialization in the hopes that they will be placed in a “forever” home. Animals given Sanctuary Status will be placed in Wee Companion’s Foster Care Network to live out their lives in comfort and with love. This organization also focuses on educating foster parents, school children and others on the care, feeding and prevention of unwanted litters of these animals.

We have adopted several of Wee Companions’ rescue rats and they turned out to be among the best socialized and dearest rat friends we have been able to take up into our family. The memory of two of these adopted friends (Magnolia and Olive), is also preserved in some of the photos of our website www.onestaorganics.com.

Because Wee Companions is not a public shelter, appointments are required for individual adoptions. You can contact Wee Companions via the email link on their website www.weecompanions.com. On their site, you can also check out their adoptable animals.
