Testimonials

A great resource for all guinea pig owners. Interesting, informative and relevant. A wealth of knowledge in every issue.

Sue Tate, Cavy Corner

It’s amazing that a magazine with such an undoubtedly niche topic as guinea pigs, can look like this – beautiful, colorful, well-delivered and refined in every detail.

Karolina Pierianowicz

I’m so happy to have found a magazine that understands the madness and joy that is guinea pigs.

Meet Alison Byford, founder of Guinea Pig Magazine

...and a little guinea pig called Piglet

It all started with a pigture…

Once upon a time, in a small hamlet in Devon, there lived a very handsome guinea pig called Piglet. He was loved beyond measure by his piggy slave (and our editor), Alison Byford.

One day, a photo of Piglet appeared in the reader’s pet section of Somerfield’s Magazine - the last issue they ever printed. When Alison turned the page and saw his little face smiling back at her, she was bursting with pride. But when she looked for somewhere else to send her photo, she was shocked: there wasn’t a single magazine in the world dedicated to guinea pigs.

Surely guinea pigs deserved better?
