    this broke my heart. I completely understand not using the word “rescue” around the previous owner because they can get offended, all my animals are from rehoming situations, some from bad care. If the owner doesn’t understand what they’re doing wrong they will not understand why you need to rescue them. I can’t believe someone worked so hard to ruin this. I am absolutely certain nobody else is going to care for them the way you would’ve, and whoever did this doesn’t care about the pigs.
    Stay strong Austin, we support you!

    Those poor pigs ): I have a rescue rabbit and I had to pretend the whole time I was just really excited to buy the rabbit from them so that they didn’t take any offense, but he was in horrible condition. Stained with pee, broken toes, found out later that he also had a parasite. How people can decide that their pride is worth more than an animal’s life is beyond me ): thanks for trying to help

    • @bea2390
      @bea2390 2 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      I feel the same way, luckily my pigs had decent care in their previous home but my rats and hamsters were in rough shape. It’s important to be nice and polite when adopting neglected animals because you don’t want them to get offended and leave, and sometimes they aren’t awful people just misinformed and trying to find the animal a better home. Confronting them or telling them their care is bad will only make the situation harder, and there’s no reason to do that if you’re taking in the animal anyways. Whoever exposed Austin must not understand what it’s like to take in neglected animals. I hope your rabbit is doing well now that he’s with you!

    I feel so sad for these piggies, they would have gotten a new start to their life if Austin had been able to save them. Now their futures are uncertain.
    Also, it seems like guinea pigs aren't the only animals that person has that are in bad care, on top of the cage with the babies there is a small hamster cage, so it's safe to assume that they have a hamster or another small rodent in a bad cage. :(

      @@NaeniaNightingale He’s stated multiple times throughout his videos he doesn’t report these people or point out their behavior because nothing is stopping them from just refusing to give up these animals. If your abusive and you were threatened by someone with the authorities your first reaction would be to pull away and not trust the person. If he were to say anything about these peoples actions there’s no telling what the outcome would be, some people might just not care and give the animal(s) up but a majority would get offended or suspicious and refuse to give up the animal for their own safety, none of these people want jail time so they aren’t gonna risk anything. Plus if he were to report these people most likely nothing would happen since they don’t care, they hardly even care about cats or dogs having that “it’s just an animal” mentality so calling in to report abuse on something so small they’d view it as unimportant and do nothing about it. Even if he got these animals from the person and did attempt to report them he has no evidence of abuse, they aren’t gonna do anything from a photo and his word for it. In this situation he’s helpless and all he can do to ensure the safety of these animals is to play along.

    I know this situation is so disappointing. I've had similar things happen before. I am an animal rescuer with years of experience. Next time, definitely post *after* you've secured the babies.

      @alyssadehart1692 2 ปีที่แล้ว +18

      Also, you can make a surrender form! So if you want to approach people as a "rescuer" you can make it more official when they hand them over. Though, some people don't like rescues/rescuers (wild, right) so that doesn't always work.

  • @jessicalleigh
    @jessicalleigh ปีที่แล้ว +42

    I would’ve got a family member/friend to approach and “rescue” them on my behalf and secretly hand them over to me afterwards. Hopefully you can do this in the future if needed. Alternatively, you could have an open fundraiser that people can contribute to whenever! One that states the proceeds go to rescue missions!

  • @alg94
    @alg94 2 ปีที่แล้ว +46

    it definitely makes it harder when the og owner stops cooperating with rescue efforts. i did a hoarder case last year (over 100 pigs running free inside a bungalo that a family lived in) and when we were at 75 out of the house she stopped cooperating and animal control had to be called when we were there to prevent that from happening since child services were already involved. we got about 14 more out but i have no idea what happened to the pigs she didnt let us take.
    its probably best to connect with a rescue that is operating already so you can have their support when it comes to funding so that its raised without "naming" the og owner

    I’m so sorry you had to go through all that! Those poor piggies looked so miserable. For the record, I think you did the right thing. It’s their fault for not giving their pigs the right care.
    I rescued my pigs from an “abusive” situation. They were at a Humane Society but, they were being kept in a 2x4 C&C cage that was divided in half (sorta). The girls are were in the 2x2 1/2 half and the boys were in the 2x1 half. The girls were one mom (which I adopted) and two baby girls (I adopted one of them), and three baby boys. It was horrible. They were all very, very, very skittish and afraid of everything. My girls still won’t let me pet them.
    The people at the Humane society had them those nasty pellets with the dried fruits and vegetables in it and it basically looked like fruit loops. I really wanted to get all of them but my parents would not allow it. They looked so sad. Parents and their kids kept putting their hands in the cage and grabbing the pigs; trying to hold them.
    Now, my two girls Belle and Pepper, are so, so happy! They are in two Midwest cages combined with a new chloroplast bottom, they have lots of hay, hidey’s, and love to popcorn all around the cage!

    I am so sorry about the rescue situation that was sabotaged! It's sad for the Guinea pigs most of all, because coming to your home is like coming to the Guinea pig Taj Majal. You are such a loving, caring, responsible, conscientious piggy daddy that I don't understand why someone would want to prevent you from rescuing pigs in need. Whoever did this was targeting you, but the ones they ultimately hurt were the Guinea pigs you were rescuing. If the care in that home was that bad (I didn't see the previous video), at least the piggies were being given to others who, hopefully, will take better care of them. Whoever did this does watch your channel, so I hope you don't mind me speaking directly to them now.
    To the person who did this, I hope you are proud of yourself. You didn't hurt The Pig Room. They were disappointed but have moved on. This rescue was life changing for those piggies. You insured that they remained with irresponsible people who sent them into situations that hopefully weren't worse. I hope you don't call yourself an animal lover, because in reality you're a malicious troll.
    Thanks for letting me vent to that troll a bit. You have so much love and support, please don't let them get you down. Thank you for what you do.

    Whoever went and ran their mouth to that owner is a disgusting person. I have no idea why anyone would do something like that and ruin a chance for innocent little babies (all of those pigs) to be happy and healthy, and have a better life... Obviously, anyone looking at your videos can see that you take great care of your pigs. People need to let go of their pride, it's not about them, it's about the safety of the animals they're endangering.

Just a suggestion;possibly in the future, wait to tell us about rescues and such until after the rescue actually happens?People can be so jealous and vindictive, it's sad! While I truly believe most of us are here to support you, there will always be the trolls and individuals just out to ruin someone's day because they have issues with themselves! Love your channel and everything you are trying to do and are doing!!💕

    ugh the situation still makes my stomach turn! i knew the second you went on live that someone out there would try and find the owner on guinea pig finder due to all the previous drama from earlier in the week like you mentioned.
    i just don’t understand why someone would do such a thing if they truly care about piggies. it just goes to show that children should be seen and not heard since they clearly cannot be mature. wether someone loves you or hates you, i know one thing and that is you are an amazing pet owner and i think everyone who owns pigs should strive to be as good of a pet owner as you. there is absolutely not one thing that someone should say that is negative about your pet care! those pigs would have had an amazing life with you and im so sorry all of that went down, austin :(

      OKAY F THE ROOM CLEANING I CANT BELIEVE SOMEONE RUINED SAVING !!!! Pigs OH MY GOD I’m not one to go offf but go tf offf please I will find them I hope this person that attacked your rescue knows you can sue for attacking your character. I work for a law firm and I hope you know that you can sue those people. The eight guinea pigs are in horrible condition and you are going there to save them and this person goes to the owner and says that you are a bad person for starting a go fund me to help their guinea pigs and then not only does that but then does not let you pick them up due to the information this person is a random person gave to the owners that is straight slander that is interfering with someone’s not only business but sanctuary because you’re considered guinea pig sanctuary with how many you have but since someone wanted to be spiteful and probably doesn’t like you for no reason and leave those guinea pigs like that you can call animal control because it’s already neglect if he’s missing a toe is already neglect those feet those pictures everything you have keep it because its neglect you can report them and they may not go to you anymore but they will go to someone else who will care. Sorry I was so mad about this
