*** In order to adopt, you must be an existing client of a vet clinic that sees rats or have been accepted as a new client at a clinic that sees rats *** Ebby and Bob are an odd couple for sure. Ebby was actually born at the rescue on Aug. 30, 2020. Her mother was a domesticated rat who was dumped outside and her father was a wild rat. This means Ebby is half-wild. She's not a big fan of being held, although she will tolerate it if it means play time. And she's not a big fan of being pet....

Kesa Rattery – The Fallacy of an “ethical” breeder

Posted on March 14, 2022May 8, 2022 by Rachel Shen

We want to share the following story to help others avoid the pitfall of thinking that "breeders" are in any way better than pet stores. THEY ARE NOT. Here are Bear and Buddy's stories. We were contacted in January by a lady, we will call "Nancy" who desperately needed help with her rats. Nancy tried to do everything right as a first-time rat-keeper: she did tons of research; she invested in a Double Critter Nation; and purchased a mountain of toys and accessories. Nancy also found a lo...

Benji & Rick (neutered)

Posted on December 9, 2021March 6, 2022 by Rachel Shen

Benji and Rick are both estimated to be around 8 months old as of December 2021, and both were surrendered by their previous families who could not keep them for various reasons. Poor Benji is a sweet, but shy boy who lost his brother to an unknown illness and his previous human felt like he was simply lonely and deserved new rat friends. Rick on the other hand, was surrendered because he was a huge bully who was beating up his cage-mates. His previous owner unfortunately could not afford ...

Both girls arrived with mild respiratory infection, but were otherwise friendly and well-socialized. After 3 weeks of antibiotics and a clear environment, they are now ready for their forever home. Of the two, Prim is much more outgoing, while Rosey is a little bit more shy and will need some convincing before she agrees to be ...
