As you may remember, we featured Texas Rustlers Guinea Pig Rescue as the wheek.it Featured Rescue for our beta testing period from October 2012 to March 2013.

Since that time there have been a few changes around these parts: Texas Rustlers will continue to be a Featured Rescue, and joining them with Featured status is Orange County Cavy Haven in Orange County, California.

Important Changes!

An important bulletin was posted on April 7, 2013 which changed the process of guinea pig rescue/shelter selection by limiting featured guinea pig rescues to 2 per year, each featured for 12 concurrent months.

The title of this post has been modified to reflect this change. However, several details in this post has not.

Welcome to Q2 (April to July) 2013!

As you know, here at wheek.it we loves us some guinea pig rescues. That’s why we select a new guinea pig rescue each quarter to receive 100% of the money you raise when you use wheek.it to shorten links to products and services from our participating shops.

Last quarter, wheek.it users were able to raise $29.78 for the Q1 (and first-ever) Featured Rescue: Texas Rustlers Guinea Pig Rescue. And aside from a donation of cold, hard cash, do you want to hear the best part? For each quarterly donation, wheek.it will give an additional $50 USD.

That means wheek.it users will have helped to raise over $79.78 for Texas Rustlers!

You rock!
