Joseph & Giorno

Posted on July 29, 2022September 27, 2022 by Rachel Shen

Brothers Joseph & Giorno are estimated to have been born sometime in December of 2021. They arrived at the Rescue extremely skinny, but their previous owner had obviously still done a wonderful job socializing them, because they are friendly, loving and love to follow their foster mom around her entire apartment! Of the two, Giorno (black) is slightly more energetic and tends to be more of the leader, but Joseph (brown), is just as active, and the two of them get along great. They're always c...

Meet brothers Ralph and Norton. They are so friendly, so brave, and so full of energy. Estimated to be born May 20th, 2021 their mother was abandoned (pregnant) at a vet clinic.

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 ...

Cleo & Leila

Posted on July 19, 2021November 23, 2021 by Rachel Shen

Sisters Cleo & Leila are estimated to have been born in May of 2020, meaning they are just over 1 year old. We would strongly prefer that Cleo & Leila be adopted with Shay & Lily and will only allow them to be separated if the applicant already has an existing colony of rats. You are unlikely to find more friendly, sociable or well-behaved rats anywhere. Aside from being soft, and cute as buttons, Cleo and Leila are 100% liter trained, do not chew or destroy anything, are not picky about thei...
