Gideon & Squiggles

Posted on January 10, 2015January 31, 2015 by Kaitlynne-Rae

They are the perfect pair, but also perfect opposites. While Squiggles can never get enough of out-time, and never gets tired of running all over her human, Guideon just likes to be lounge and be handed treats. They are very much bonded to each other and are looking for a loving home as a pair.

Nelly

Posted on November 29, 2014 by Kaitlynne-Rae

Nelly was one of the 4 French girls originally rescued from a Montreal pet store where they were about to become used as feeders. After living a full life with a gaggle of other girls in a Princess-themed Critter Nation, Nelly is now a grouchy, but content old lady, getting spoiled and taking up all of her human mom's attention.

Molly, Maggie & Mr. Moo

Posted on November 29, 2014 by Kaitlynne-Rae

Meet Mr. Moo, Maggie and Molly, three of the most adorable and friendly rats you will ever meet. Poor Mr. Moo was found trying to survive outside. He was infested by a huge bot fly larva, then later had to recover from a massive abscess in his side and groin. Just when we thought he had found his perfect home, the hormones kicked in, and Mr. Moo had to be separated while he waited for a neuter. Now much calmer, Mr. Moo lives with two of the Blonde sisters, Maggie and Molly who were surrendered a...

Now named Mistrale and Stella, this gorgeous mother-daughter pair have found their forever home. While other people over-looked this beautiful pair for months, their new human mom and dad could see how sweet and loving these girls could be. Thank you!

Mina & Lil’ Momma

Posted on November 29, 2014 by Kaitlynne-Rae

Mina is the black Rex, who also happens to be a brave adventurer able to climb just about anything! Lil' Momma loves to give kisses, and as her name suggests, is the mother of the Blondie Babies. Both girls captured the heart of their foster mom, and never left!

Maple & Ash

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

Maple is a gorgeous agouti Berkshire and Ash is black, with a perfectly heart-shaped white spot on her chest. 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. As of November 10th, 2014, they will be available for adoption as a pair or...

Harriet & Selma

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

Harriet and Selma were rescued from a situation where they were used to produce more rats in Masouche, Quebec. Both girls were timid and scared of hands. However, with the time and love their foster mom has invested in them, both girls slowly but surely came out of their shells. Harriet and Selma are curious and friendly and are quickly learning that humans are quite awesome. They are a tightly bonded pair and have been adopted together into a wonderful young home that will be able to give them ...

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.

Pixie

Posted on September 28, 2014September 30, 2014 by Kaitlynne-Rae

Pixie came to us as part of the Mascouche Breeder Surrender and was pregnant. She is a beautiful black and white hooded. As we already had two mommy rats who were far along, we had Pixie spayed in order to keep our numbers manageable and ensure that everyone was able to find an amazing home. She was originally frightened by human hands but came so far in a few months. She was adopted into an amazing home where she now has 3 boys to keep in line and snuggle with!

Stella & Bijou

Posted on September 28, 2014September 29, 2014 by Kaitlynne-Rae

These lovely ladies are from one of the two resulting litters from the Mascouche Breeder. They lived the first six weeks of their lives at the rescue and are extremely playful and cuddly.

Dixie & Anna

Posted on September 28, 2014September 28, 2014 by Kaitlynne-Rae

These two girls came to us from a breeder in Mascouche who had been reported and was getting rid of his animals. Both came pregnant and very unsure about humans, hands, and everything else. In the past month Anna has been spayed; Dixie has given birth to a litter of 6, which she is currently nursing; and both girls have learned that humans can bring love, warmth, and of course treats. Dixie will need to stay at the rescue until her babies have been fully weaned so that they get the best start at...

Minuit

Posted on September 15, 2014September 25, 2014 by Kaitlynne-Rae

This lovely lady is from one of the two resulting litters from the Mascouche Breeder. She lived the first six weeks of her life at the rescue and was extremely playful and cuddly. A gorgeous black and white dumbo, we're so happy she has found a loving forever home that can give her tons of love and cuddles. She will be joining a lovely rat named Bisous who recently lost a cage mate. We're so excited that this adoption ended in happy endings for not one, but two rats!

Cassy & Jezzabell

Posted on September 10, 2014September 28, 2014 by Kaitlynne-Rae

These two darlings came to us from a horrible breeding situation in Mascouche, but you wouldn't know it. Cassy is a firecracker of energy and loves exploring, but will come back for a cuddle to make sure you're still there. Jezzabell is a little shy, but once she feels safe will settle down on your chest for cuddles and love. Both girls are an estimated 4 month old as of August 2014. These two gorgeous girls were adopted and are off to their new home in Kingston with Ashley! We're super thrilled...

Caleese

Posted on September 8, 2014September 25, 2014 by Kaitlynne-Rae

This little darling came to us from an intake pound called Auberg Zen in Laval QC. They give them 30 days at the pound. If they are not picked up by an adopter or another shelter, they are euthanized... She is so friendly, energetic, and brave! She loves exploring and getting into mischief - as well as visiting all the other rats in the rescue. She is also here to stay - she's managed to wriggle her cute little face deep into Rachel's heart, so has been given her forever home permanently with Ra...

Wilma

Posted on September 8, 2014 by Kaitlynne-Rae

Wilma was a sweet old girl who was part of the Mascouche breeder surrender. She was aged and came to the rescue with a large tumour and a respiratory infection. Despite rounds of antibiotics (she was too ill to undergo surgery to have the tumour removed), she eventually passed away and joined so many other friends across the rainbow bridge. We are happy, however, that in her last weeks of life she was able to know so much love and care.

Cleo

Posted on September 8, 2014 by Kaitlynne-Rae

Cleo was one of 6 rats we were fortunate enough to have the opportunity to rescue from a Gatineau pound who was not properly set up to care for rats. She has since blossomed into one of the alpha rats at her adoptive mom Karen's home and is soaking in all the love and attention a rat could ask for along with her two other cage mates.

Angel

Posted on September 8, 2014September 8, 2014 by Kaitlynne-Rae

Angel was part of the Masouche breeder rescue. Extremely timid and afraid of hands at first, with lots of time, patience, and love from her adoptive mother, Karen, she has begun to come out of her shell and start to soak in all the love that's being showered on her. She is now living with 4 other rats and is doing extremely well.

Ivy & Rue

Posted on September 8, 2014 by Kaitlynne-Rae

Sweet Ivy & Rue are a mother and daughter pair originally rescued from the Valleyfields SPCA. They are now living comfortably together with a family of animal-loving vets! These sweet girls are still a bit scared and unsure about people and our hands, but their new family will love them and work with them. Hooray for wonderful families!

Elly & Ingrid

Posted on September 8, 2014September 8, 2014 by Kaitlynne-Rae

It can be said that Elly (left) & Ingrid were a pair made in rattie heaven. Both of these older girls had lost their previous cage-mates and were lonely. They accepted each other almost immediately and now live in a spacial Critter Nation together. Their mom is a loving parent who not only dotes on them, but will go the extra mile to make sure her girls are healthy and happy. Elly was definitely one of the lucky ones - she lived to a ripe old age of 3.5 years!

Peanut & Reiki

Posted on September 5, 2014September 6, 2014 by Kaitlynne-Rae

Q-Tip ("Q" for short) is the beautiful black dumbo girl who unfortunately lost her sister. Her human parents were concerned with her advancing age and her lack of friends. They adopted Peanut and Reiki, two beautiful beige baby girls who took to Q almost immediately. Now all three girls can be found spending relaxing days in their massive playground and doing naughty things to keep their humans amused.

Rhea & Kali

Posted on September 5, 2014September 6, 2014 by Kaitlynne-Rae

Rhea and Kali have stayed within the rescue due to some recurring respiratory issues. Dear Rhea is the sweetest, most loving rat and has a gentle nature that makes it hard not to fall in love. These two beautiful girls also live with Soleil & Gaia.
