Kimie Smothermon operates the Guinea Pig Sanctuary in Salisbury, Massachusetts, which houses between 350 and 400 guinea pigs daily. The sanctuary takes in abandoned guinea pigs from across the U.S. and also offers boarding and rehoming services. Smothermon's dedication stems from a personal connection, as her grandson Alex found comfort and safety interacting with guinea pigs after a childhood fire, inspiring her to continue the rescue work even after a devastating fire in 2019 that claimed the lives of her grandson, two dogs, and many guinea pigs.
