A plea for help

Small Pets-Big Hearts has been booming lately. Unfortunately, this means that headquarters is full! But that doesn't stop requests for surrenders from coming in. Just today, two major requests came in. We're asking for help in finding either rescues that can handle the overflow or forever homes for the rescues already in SP-BH headquarters. Here are the stories:
Travelers from New Jersey have called in dire need. They are currently carrying 14 sugar gliders that were unwanted. Unfortunately, as SP-BH already has a pair waiting for adoption and has a vast menagerie of other animals waiting for forever homes, there's just no way to take them. Unfortunately, to our knowledge, there are no other no-kill organizations that take sugar gliders. If you know of anyone who can take them in, please let us know.
We also received an email requesting a surrender of 5 rabbits, 3 guinea pigs, a syrian hamster, and a hairless rat. All but the rabbits are known to be male. If you're familiar with other rescues that can take in these animals, or if you're interested in taking in these - or any other animals at SP-BH, please contact the rescue at rachel(at)smallpets-bighearts(dot)com.
Please don't forget that adoptions and fosters are always welcome. Every animal that gets adopted means that another can be rescued. If you can help, please let us know.
