Susan & Gabriel (neutered)

Posted on May 12, 2015October 20, 2015 by Rachel Shen

** Medical Hold ** Susan has developed a mammary tumor and will not be available for adoption until after successful removal and recovery. Susan & Gabriel are two sweet rats who are absolutely in love with each other. They are never far from each other, and spend most of their time cuddling, eating while pressed against each other, or taking turns draped over each other. And if that weren't cute enough, Gabriel is about twice Susan's size, yet he regularly lets her roll him over and groom ...

Fred & George

Posted on April 20, 2015May 9, 2015 by Rachel Shen

These brave little boys are estimated to be about 3.5 months old as of April 20, 2015. Fred & George are two nearly identically, and totally inseparable brothers. They have lived every moment of their young lives so far, together, and we would like to make sure that it stays that way. The best way to tell these boys apart is to look at their white tummy markings. Similar, but one definitely has a little more white (we just aren't sure which yet!). Both boys are super outgoing and always fo...

Harry & Ronald

Posted on April 20, 2015May 25, 2015 by Rachel Shen

These brave little boys are estimated to be about 3.5 months old as of April 20, 2015. Harry is a black self with a big healing gash on his shoulder. He's quite the trooper, and despite his deplorable beginnings, is happy to march right out into anyone's hand! His brother Ronald is just as outgoing. These two lucky boys are unfazed by the sudden change in their life and has accepted their new freedom with gusto! They are looking for a forever home that will allow them to climb, explore and...

Chib & Strich

Posted on March 23, 2015May 9, 2015 by Rachel Shen

These two adorable 8-11 month old boys are looking for a forever home together. Here are a few words from their foster-dad: Hi, my name is Ilia and I was lucky to become a foster for these amazing rats during my short four-month visit to Ottawa. Their names mean "Black and White", and "Stripe", respectively. They came in a tiny hamster cage on January 28th 2015, and soon got used to their new, six-story cage provided by the Rescue. Chib is the alpha male. He is not aggressive, although he ...

Blitzen & Dancer

Posted on January 31, 2015May 9, 2015 by Anita U

Blitzen and Dancer are two adventurous and brave baby brothers looking for a loving home together. Both boys rush to the door of the cage when you walk by and can't wait to come out to play. They are part of a group of 21 rats rescued on Christmas Eve. They can be adopted with any of the other "McLaren Boys". These boys are currently being fostered in Ottawa.

Stanley & Brando

Posted on January 10, 2015April 28, 2015 by Kaitlynne-Rae

Both boys were rescued by a kind lady in Kingston right before they were to become snake food. Stanley is much larger and very outgoing where as Brando is smaller and takes a little longer to warm up to you. Both boys are oh so sweet and really bask in any attention they get. Please do not let the fact that these boys are albino put you off. Fur-colour and eye-color are not an indication of temperament or personality. Just like other rats, these brothers are looking for a loving home of their...

Tarragon & Laurel

Posted on November 4, 2014January 31, 2015 by Kaitlynne-Rae

Tarragon and Laurel are looking for their forever home! These two girls are members of the group of rats and babies we took in from the SPCA. They are originally from a pet store that dumped 66 rats (including some pregnant adults) on the SPCA - who is simply not equipped to handle that many rats. We stepped in, taking 29 of the rats - including these two loves. They are available for adoption as of November 10, 2014, as a pair or in larger groups with their roommates Anise & Sage and Rose...

Archer & Cyril

Posted on September 30, 2014December 4, 2014 by Kaitlynne-Rae

These two lovely black and white boys were surrendered to us because of a very unfortunate financial situation meant that their human guardians could not afford to keep them anymore. They were truly well loved by their past mom after they were given to her by a family who had lost interest. These darlings have found a new forever home where they will be showered with just as much love and attention as their past parents lavished them with. One boy is still a little shy of hands, but the other is...

Lola

Posted on September 29, 2014September 30, 2014 by Kaitlynne-Rae

Lola is a darling blue hooded who came to us as part of the Mascouche Surrender. She is remarkably outgoing and oh so loving - she loves just curling up against your side and chilling. She went to spend some time hanging out with a foster mom but then stole the foster mom's heart as if it were a cheerio and ran away with it. Suffice to say, she's staying put and soaking up all the love and affection possible. She's with two other rescued girls and can be caught snuggling away her days.

Ben & Rupert

Posted on September 18, 2014August 9, 2015 by Kaitlynne-Rae

Rupert was found running around outside and was rescued initially by Lisa. Unfortunately, one of her boys is a bit of a bully and did not accept Rupert. Ben is a tiny albino boy who was dumped along with his sister at a pet store just outside of Alexandria and was rescued by a woman named Adele right before the pet store owner was going to feed him to a snake. She realized very quickly that rats need a friend. She asked us for help. We took him in because we knew Rupert and he would be similar i...

Icarus & Samos

Posted on September 15, 2014October 19, 2014 by Kaitlynne-Rae

These two boys are from the the two resulting litters from the Mascouche Breeder. They've just reached six weeks old as of Sept 14, and are now ready to find forever homes. They have lived their entire lives at the rescue and are therefore extremely well socialized and friendly. Icarus is the black boy - who is aptly named for the wings between his legs - he has a little bit of webbing on his back legs - and personality: he likes to explore and venture off. Samos is the tan boy and is never too ...
