Cooper (neutered) & Bobby (neutered)

Posted on by Rachel Shen
Meet brothers, Cooper and Bobby. These two were found on the side of a highway in a box along with 22 other rats in St. Marthe QC. It is hard to say exactly how old they are, but we're guessing anywhere between 6 months and 1 year old. These two did not have it easy, as they both came in dirty, infested with parasites and were extremely aggressive with people and other rats. Thankfully, both have now completely changed after their respective neuters and now are friendly, curious and qu...

Brothers Chester & Ezra are estimated to be about 6 months old and are now looking for their forever home! These two beautiful, curious boys were surrendered by their well-meaning previous owner when she found herself in a very difficult situation. It would seem that at some point, they were well-loved, but came to us infested with lice and quite skiddish. After a few weeks at the Rescue, they are now quickly coming around. They love to dig around in blankets and also come up to you to sa...

Ella & Ninja

Posted on by Rachel Shen
Meet sisters Ella and Ninja! We're not sure if they're really sisters, but they cuddle, play and overall get along wonderfully. Both girls are super active and curious. They're much more interested in exploring than cuddling right now, but that's probably partially also because they are estimated to be only 5-6 months old. Ella and Ninja are confident and will do well in any family that can give them plenty of toys, time to run around outside their cage and lots to explore. If you'd like t...

Benny & Hugo

Posted on by Rachel Shen
Meet brothers, Benny and Hugo. You will not find a more adorable pair anywhere! These brothers were unfortunately surrendered for being "too big". Realistically, they aren't even full grown yet at an estimated 5-6 months old. Of the two, Benny (beige) is slightly more anxious and tends to take a few more days to settle in and get used to new surrounding and new people. He's incredibly curious and boy or boy can he climb and explore when he wants to. Hugo on the other hand, is a much more c...

Margaret & Elizabeth

Posted on by Rachel Shen
Meet Elizabeth (beige) & her sister Margaret (black) These 2 sisters came from a pretty horrid situation where they lived with 2 others in a tiny cramped cage with no food or toys. They have come a very long way, as all of them were desperately in need of some proper nourishment and socialization. Of all of them, Elizabeth is the most outgoing. She's brave, adventurous and actually kind of likes people now. Margaret on the other hand, still needs quite a bit of patience and someone who can...

Both boys have no flaws when it comes to personality. Hagrid is just a little bit snatchy when ...

Opal (spayed) & Pirate

Posted on by Rachel Shen
Meet Opal and Pirate, two spunky girls who still have a lot of growing to do and tons of energy to expend. Opal is estimated to be 4 months old. She was spayed when only 3 months old, meaning she will hopefully be much healthier with a drastically LOWER chance of any reproductive cancers. She is a little love bug. She loves to give kisses and always looks for opportunities to scramble into your hand. Once she's out, she's quite bossy and confidence. Nothing phases her. She loves to explore, c...

Leo has some scars on his tail, but managed to keep the whole thing (somehow!) and still has a few stubs for fingers which he uses to expertly hold things. They need a cage/enclosure that is nice and wi...

Beau (neutered) & Hugo

Meet Beau (neutered) and Hugo. Both boys were originally strays. Beau was found wandering around outside in Ottawa, while Hugo was found outside in Belleville.

Understandably, Orbit and Flare are nervous about being touched or picked up. They absolutely LOVE to...
