Foster homes needed

We are searching for wonderful people who would like to open up their homes and hearts, to foster a rescued small pet. Fostering would be temporary, for as long as someone would like to foster or up until that pet is adopted into their permanent home. The foster parent would provide, food, bedding, socialization and love. Life Long Tails Small Pets-Big Hearts provides cage and/or accessories, and will pay for any vet costs that might ensue. We have many gerbils, guinea pigs, rabbits, hamsters, we also have 3 parakeets and a turtle that would love to be cared for by a foster parent or family. Fostering helps us with freeing up space in our own home, it gives us more room to be able to help even more pets in need. Right now we are filled and I keep having to turn away these little ones only because we lack the space. Foster families are what keeps us going and we are grateful to each one. We would love to bring more fosters into our organization. Please contact us with any questions or if you wish to become a foster. Thank you everyone!:)

Mr.T, Tyson and Quincy are adopted! :)

Mr.T the map turtle has been adopted. Mr.T is actually a female turtle, but she came to us with that name. She was with us since early November 2008. She had a diseased toe and an infected foot when she was brought to us. She went through surgery and had that bad toe removed, and she bounced back 100 percent from all that. Now she is happy in her new home and her name is now Tia. I am so happy for her.

Tyson and Quincy the baby guinea pigs also went home together. They were brought to us with 9 other guinea pigs. The guinea pigs were breeding and became too many for their former owner. These two brothers will have plenty of attention and love every day.

Lovely Halo and Please Adopt

The little girl dwarf hamster , Halo, passed away last week :( She developed a prolapsed rectum. Every hamster I have cared for that suddenly had a prolapsed rectum, it turned out serious and terminal. Even with veterinarian intervention, where they attempt to place the colon back inside and stitch it back in, then treat with antibiotics.. the hamster can never go to the bathroom properly after that and many times the hamster may have chewed their insides, they do not understand they are causing unrepairable damage, they are just trying to clean things up, they know that shouldn't be there! When I saw Halo's prolapse, my heart sank, I knew what it meant. I knew it was time to say goodbye to her. It was best to not let her suffer for another day or days, but to let her go with euthanasia. Even though she was a touch-me-not hamster, she was so very beautiful in my eyes.
We haven't had any adoptions in quite a while, but requests to surrender pet(s) keep pouring in. There are so many little ones that are waiting for their new family and loving homes. Please spread the word of adoption, for them and for me :) There are many male guinea pigs and Candy Corn the female guinea pig. Many female rabbits and Victor the male rabbit. There is a male and female syrian hamster , Aella and Justin. Two dwarf hamsters, Mac and Cheese. Lots of male and female gerbils. A female map turtle , Mr.T and a male red eared slider turtle, Hercules. 3 parakeets, Launchpad, Runway and Turbulence. And the newest arrivals are Hefty the large male guinea pig, Neeko the male ferret and Spazz the male rat. If you are looking for a new companion or know someone who is, please direct them to adoption. We are wondering if no one is adopting because they aren't aware of that option or that we are even here with many adoptables.
Thank you everyone :)
