Why PurePiggy exists
Good packaging does not always mean good for guinea pigs.
PurePiggy began as a young maker’s Invention Convention project after noticing that some food, toys, and cages sold for guinea pigs were sugary, glued together, or simply too small.
The idea was simple: research the safer choices, explain the reason in plain language, and make learning about piggies feel fun.
