Brewster

We found out about Brewster three days before he was going to be euthanized, so we quickly agreed to adopt him. Brewster was born in June 2010, and he loves eating, sleeping, belly rubs, and grunting happily at new visitors.

Wilbur

We rescued Wilbur in November of 2013. His former owner purchased him as a teacup piglet three years prior, but could no longer keep him. Wilbur had run out of options and was about to be homeless. He has integrated very well with the rest of the herd. Within 60 seconds of meeting the others, Wilbur became top pig! Weighing in at around 175 pounds, Wilbur is cool, confident, and does his best to take care of the other pigs. He loves rooting in the dirt (freshly manicured lawns are his favorite!), taking naps in the sun, and eating of course!

Toodles

Toodles (formerly #47) was born in March, 2022 and sold to a research lab in the Silicon Valley. He was an “extra” - never tested on, and a sympathetic employee reached out to us because she did not want to see him euthanized. He came to live at Sloppy Seconds when he was 5 months old. He had never been outside, never touched grass, rooted in dirt, or felt the warm sunshine on his face. It didn’t take him long to adjust, though! He is a silly, rambunctious little thing that gets into lots of mischief around here. The older pigs seem quite fond of him, and we are so glad he’s here.

Bentley

Bentley was found as an adult living with severe metabolic bone disease, picked up by animal control in San Francisco. We’ve had him here almost 8 years. Due to his condition, he was deemed unadoptable. Bentley loves roaming around in the grass, climbing up to his swing, and eating strawberries. He’s a confident little guy with a big personality!

Palmela

Palmela is a beautiful green iguana that was found up a tree in Sacramento in the summer of 2009. She was about a year and a half old at the time, and believed to be an escaped pet. Now she is happy to be in her forever home, and has gained quite a bit of weight! She loves climbing the cat trees in the house and taking baths. Her favorite foods are dark leafy greens, peaches, and edamame.

Phillip

Meet Philip! Philip is a Muscovy duck, born in 2019. She was dumped at a park in Modesto, and brought to Cali_FID exotics. She is the undisputed queen of the flock. Philip has "angel wing syndrome” because she was fed an improper diet of grains (bread, crackers, chips, etc). She will never be able to fly so she needs a protected enclosure that caters specifically to her special needs. This ducky loves watermelon, scrambled eggs, and worms!! She’s also incredibly friendly to people. 

Orlando

Orlando was found as a stray, and came to us in September of 2023. He had been at the San Jose Animal Care Center for several months, though they were unable to place him. Don’t let his sweet innocent face fool you - he apparently does not play well with others! Hopefully we will be able to bond him with Buscemi eventually, though whatever happens, we know he will be a perfect ambassador for Sloppy Seconds!

Buscemi

Surrendered with dozens of other guinea pigs, Buscemi came to us from the City of San Jose Animal Care Center. He had a mouth laceration and swollen lip and could not be adopted out. He is a bit skittish, but enjoys being handled once out of his enclosure. He loves peppers and greens and hiding in boxes. We do not have any idea how old he is.

Nala

Nala was born in June 2020. She was found two months later and kept as a pet. She lived in a hamster cage and was fed an improper diet (scrambled eggs and peanuts). On November 27, 2020 she was surrendered to Yggdrasil Urban Wildlife Rescue (YUWR). It was determined that Nala had malnutrition and subsequent Metobolic Bone Disease. She was not a good candidate for the ReWild Program, unfortunately, so YUWR asked if we could keep her here permanently.

Nala especially enjoys pecans, apple slices, and lounging around in her hammock. She loves getting new browse and exploring novel enrichment too!
