Max, Merlin & Marcel

Posted on January 6, 2021March 8, 2021 by Rachel Shen

This trouble-some trio were from two separate litters, but you would never guess because of how tightly bonded they now are. Of the 3, Marcel (right) was born Oct. 25, 2020, while his two adopted brothers were born just 2 days earlier. Marcel is also half-wild, meaning his father was a wild rat, while his mother was a fully domesticated (and extremely friendly) pet rat who had been abandoned outside. These three must be adopted together. Due to their past, they would prefer an experienced ...

Spud & Skadi

Posted on January 6, 2021March 8, 2021 by Rachel Shen

Sisters Spud & Skadi were born some time between June and July of 2020 when a girl brought home a pair of pet rats from a store without realizing that the store had given her a boy and a girl. Several months later, the girl found herself overwhelmed with many babies from a litter of rats that she had never intended to breed. Luckily, the girl had done a wonderful job socializing all of the rats, and despite their cramped conditions, Spud & Skadi are extremely friendly, social and loving girls...

Babs & Galadriel

Posted on December 29, 2020January 23, 2021 by Rachel Shen

Sisters Babs & Galadriel are estimated to be born around July of 2020. They are both extremely curious and friendly and don't mind being picked up or handled. They prefer of course, to run and explore, but they're always willing to come to the door of the cage to see if the humans are there to hand out treats or to take them out for some run-around time. These girls can also be adopted with their sisters, Arrielle & Ursula.

Arwen & Hera

Posted on December 1, 2020December 26, 2020 by Rachel Shen

Meet sisters, Arwen & Hera. These two girls were born Oct. 25, 2020. Both girls are half-wild rat, meaning her father was a wild rat, while her mother was a fully domesticated (and extremely friendly) pet rat who had been abandoned outside. Both girls are fine with being held and handled, however, due to their past, they would prefer an experienced home. Strong preference will be given to any adopters who already have friendly, older female rats at home. Half-Wild rats tend to remain wary...

Desdemonna is a half-wild rat, meaning her father was a wild rat, while her mother was a fully domesticated (and extremely friendly) pet rat who had been abandoned outside.

Yuri & Neptune

Posted on October 27, 2020December 1, 2020 by Rachel Shen

Meet brothers, Yuri & Neptune. Born Aug. 22 or Aug. 23, 2020, these two are maybe technically actually cousins, but their mothers raised them together, literally taking turns feeding them. Because of this, the two are absolutely inseparable. Yes, they do have their scuffles here and there, like all brothers do, but they are always found curled around each other in the hammocks. Both Yuri and Neptune are curious and adventurous. They're not the biggest fans of being picked up, but at the same ...

Evita & Celeste

Posted on October 16, 2020December 26, 2020 by Rachel Shen

Meet sisters, Evita and Celeste. These girls are perfect. They love people, they love each other, they love to eat, run, play and explore. You simply will not find rats who are more fun and energetic than these two. We estimate that they were born around end of April/beginning of May 2020, making them only 5 months old. Evita and Celeste were actually surrendered to the Rescue extremely pregnant. They had been neglected and bred by a young man who had no idea what he was doing. Poor Evita had...

Frankie (neutered) and Toby

Posted on October 16, 2020December 10, 2020 by Rachel Shen

These boys are estimated to be 4-5 months old, with Toby being about 1 month younger than Frankie. Both these boys had a very rough start to life. Toby was sold as snake food, but thankfully, the snake started shedding, and so the people who bought him decided to give him away. Thank goodness, because Toby is the sweetest, most loving rat ever. He loves people! Every time he sees his foster dad walk by, he usually sprints to the door in hopes of being picked up. Poor Frankie was abandoned...

Ned & Edbert

Posted on September 18, 2020December 1, 2020 by Rachel Shen

Meet brothers Ned and Edbert. These two were actually surrendered to the Rescue when only a few weeks old and thus benefited from being socialized since a very early age. Both boys are extremely friendly and social, though Ned is definitely the more outgoing one. Edbert loves to be around people, and playing and cuddling with his brother, but he's definitely less happy about being carried around. These boys were born in July of 2019, making them just over a year old. Unfortunately both are...

Posted on September 14, 2020October 27, 2020 by Rachel Shen

Meet this trio of unlikely friends (from left to right), Wilma who is about 1 year old, Amy, who is estimated to be 1.5 years old and Nutmeg, who is around 7 months old. All three were brought into the rescue from dire situations. Wilma had a small mass and a hernia on top of a respiratory infection. All of her health issues have now been completely resolved.

Posted on August 25, 2020February 16, 2021 by Rachel Shen

These extremely friendly and outgoing brothers were born around May 20, 2020. They do still have a bit of growing left to do and would ideally find a home where they will have a large enclosure, or free run of a home. They are extremely well behaved will come when called.

Poppy, Pixie, Ivy & Lucy

Posted on August 6, 2020October 5, 2020 by Rachel Shen

These 4 tightly bonded girls range from 8 months old (Lucy) to the eldest, being 18 months old (Ivy). Sisters Poppy and Pixie are estimated to be about 1 year old. We would like to find them a home together as each of them relies strongly on the other for comfort and confidence. Of the 4, Lucy is definitely the most shy. She may never exactly be a human rat, as she much prefers the company of her sisters. Once she's out of the cage, she's quite confident in exploring and running around on her...

Grey

Posted on July 20, 2020April 30, 2021 by Rachel Shen

Update March 2021: Unfortunately, both Wraith and Purple had to be euthanized by our veterinarian due to persistent and worsening respiratory disease, leaving Grey the sole survivor from this group. Even so, Grey himself has severe and chronic respiratory disease and requires medication twice a day. His monthly medical bill is about $30. If you would like to help support the Rescue and our continued care of Grey, please visit our Donate Page. This trio of boys came from a previous owne...

Ronnie & Ru

Posted on July 2, 2020August 6, 2020 by Rachel Shen

Meet adorable sisters, Ronnie & Ru. These two fun, quirky girls were estimated to be born around Sept. of 2019. They are inseparable and absolutely love chilling together in their hammocks. They are extremely friendly and well-socialized and came from a home that obviously cared a lot about them, but unfortunately just ended up with too many rats to have the time and resources to provide for them in the long-run. Especially seeing as Ru is hairless, she will need a family that is knowledg...

Quincy & Perceval

Posted on June 29, 2020October 16, 2020 by Rachel Shen

Identical twin brothers, Quincy & Perceval were born sometime in April of 2020, making them currently the youngest rats at the Rescue. These brothers were purchased from Kijiji, only to have mites or lice, which unfortunately their previous human did not have the time or funds to treat. With just a drop of Revolution each, and a very thorough cage clean, these brothers are now healthy, curious, bouncy and ready to find that perfect forever home. Although they may look identical, you can ea...

Duckie & Dove

Posted on June 29, 2020November 2, 2020 by Rachel Shen

Meet friendly, adorable sisters, Duckie & Dove. These two were born Dec. 28, 2019, and have been handled since the day they were born. Unfortunately, their breeder ended up with too many rats, and decided she would stop breeding and get rid of about half her rats. Duckie & Dove need a home where they will have lots of space, toys, and plenty of time outside of their cage to interact with their humans where they can live out the rest of their lives together. If you are interested in adop...

Personality-wi...

Arlo & Rene

Posted on May 26, 2020July 14, 2020 by Rachel Shen

These sweet, but slightly shy boys are estimated to be 5-7 months old. They were surrendered by their previous human who was moving and unfortunately didn't appear to have the resources to give them the kind of life they required. Both boys arrived very nervous, not used to handling and extremely skinny. Thankfully, after just 3 weeks with one of our experienced foster homes, they've already come a long way. They are now at a much healthier weight, and have learned to relax and enjoy the ...

Arthur & Henry

Posted on May 1, 2020June 19, 2020 by Rachel Shen

Brothers Arthur and Henry are estimated to be about 1-1.5 years old. Well, you would never guess it based on how active and friendly they are. These funny hairless boys have very contrasting personalities. Why Arthur is brave, curious and outgoing; Henry, is shy and a little reserved. But, with enough patience and treats, you can definitely win them both over. These boys are tightly bonded and need to go to a home together. To apply to give these boys a loving home, please fill out an o...

Posted on March 23, 2020June 19, 2020 by Rachel Shen

Meet these 3 adorable boys who are friendly, well-socialized, love to interact with their humans and are all-round, just perfect rats. Coco (beige and white) is definitely the leader of the three. He is mister independent and takes it upon himself to be alpha and to keep the others in line and safe. Papi (brown dumbo) is probably the most chill and cuddly of the three. He's relaxed, he's happy to get cuddles, food and lots of naps. Finally, we have tiny little Chaton who is a few months young...
