This pair of sisters were surrendered to by their previous owner who found herself unable to provide the care they needed.
The foster confessed that she may have chosen their names a little bit too soon. The first day she took them home, Serein found a cozy spot to lounge and took a long nap, while Tsunami spent her entire playtime tearing around the play room, trying to climb the walls. Thus, she decided to name the “calm” girl Serein.
Little did she know, within the next 24 hours, Serein decided that she had recharged her batteries, and she and her sister more or less decided BOTH of them would like to climb the cage door, begging to come out any chance they get, and once let out, they would climb every surface available – including their foster mom1
These two girls are estimated to be be less then one year old. We suspect they were born some time February or March of 2023. They must be adopted together as a bonded pair
If you’re ready to welcome an active, playful pair into your family, please fill out an Adoption Application form.
A few words about them from their Foster Family:
Sakkari: This strong and friendly girl is a cuddler. She loves to snuggle in my neck and she can stay there for as long as I let her. She runs to the front of the cage whenever she hears us go by.
Aryna: My little drama queen! She lets out little screams (when she doesn’t agree with my decisions of when we should interact), but don’t let it fool you, it’s all an act. She is a little more shy then Sakkari but has been coming out of her shell more and more.
These two girls are estimated to be be less then one year old. We suspect they were born some time February or March of 2023. They must be adopted together as a bonded pair, or with their other sisters, Serena and Venus.

Sisters Velma & Daphne were purchased from PetSmart about a year ago, and unfortunately they were nor very brave or social. Their previous owner tried what she could to win them over, but having no experience with rats, she had them a year and made no progress and thus decided to surrender them to the Rescue.
Luckily we had an amazing foster who was able to almost immediately gain their trust and in the three weeks they were with that foster, they learned to enjoy hanging out with humans, taking food from them (gently) and even being brave enough now to wait at the door to come out for some cuddles.
They are unfortunately still quite easily startled and Velma especially is still quite wary of people.
Velma and Daphne are tightly bonded and must go to an experienced home together.
If you think you’re up for the challenge, or you have lots of experiencing winning over skiddish rats, please fill out an Adoption Application form.
Jerry and Tommy were surrendered to the Rescue after their previous owner had to move and decided she couldn’t take the pet rats with her. It just so happened that they were both still babies because she had just purchased them 3 weeks ago, but unfortunately she couldn’t remember the name of the breeder she got Tommy from, and the pet store she bought Jerry from only allows 7 days to return an unwanted pet.
The good news is that we had a foster family become available, and so we were able to take in these boys on short notice.
Jerry is a sweet, curious boy who loves to explore, climb and have his own independence, while Tommy is a total snuggle bug and lover. Both of them will cover you in gentle kisses.
These boys are estimated to be born some time in May of 2023. They are still babies and have tons of growing to do. We hope to find them a loving forever home where they will be given lots of room and enrichment to be able to continue developing mentally and physically.

This beautiful trio of sisters were originally purchased from a breeder online, but unfortunately, their original owner decided they could not take their rats with them when they moved. They couldn’t remember the name of the breeder, so instead, she thankfully reached out to us hoping that we could take them in. She believes that they are all about one year old, making them born some time in May of 2022.
All three girls are incredibly friendly, even though they arrived quite skinny, with extremely thin and poor fur and smelling like cigarette smoke.
Thankfully, after three weeks of being pampered by their foster mom, getting tons of yummy fresh foods and a clean environment, their coats are now starting to fill in and shine! Just like their personalities.
Of the three, Faye is a little dare-devil and adventurer, never wanting to stay still. Raven is a lover, and is always staying close to her foster mom. And finally, Angel is just like her name’s sake: sweet, curious and full of kisses.
We hope to find these adult girls a loving forever home who will pamper them, care for them, and give them the proper care they need for the rest of their lives.
If you are interested in adopting Faye, Raven and Angel, please fill out an Adoption Application.
Dusty and Remi were part of a group of 13 baby rats who were dumped outside in a Brockville cemetery. Due to sheer coincidence, a kind couple were at the time out walking their dog and they watched as a woman with a plastic bag abandoned them outside to fend for themselves.
We estimate that they were born some time in early April of 2023.
Luckily, all of the babies are incredibly sweet, easy to handle, and just want some love. They didn’t even try to run away from their rescuers who were able to just scoop them up by hand. Dusty and Remi are no exception! They are always happy to see their fosters and love to cover their hands in kisses.
If you’re looking for extremely social, sweet, and adorable boys to care for as part of your family, please fill out an adoption application form. Dusty and Remi can also be adopted with their brothers Leo and Eddie.

Of the three, Mango is the explorer! Always climbing and looking for adventure. Peach is the lover! Trying to cover your hand and face with gentle kisses all the time. But when she’s out, she likes to be quite independent. Ichigo is the one who will win your heart once you’ve won her trust. It takes her a while to warm up to you, but once she does, she comes running to you all the time looking for attention.

If you’re looking to add some love and cuteness to your life (and a healthy dose of chaos) look no further! The Blizzard Boys are here! We estimate they were born some time mid-March 2023.
Originally surrendered through the SPCA Gatineau, they were immediately transferred to the Rescue due to the lack of space at the SPCA. They were part of an unplanned litter when their previous human found himself with too many rats and all of the sexes mixed up.
These boys are so sweet, so curious and full of shenanigans.
There are 6 boys in total, and although they look nearly identical upon first glance, there are actually some major differences: 4 of the 6 boys actually have wavy rex hair and curly whiskers and several of them have brown nose smudges. Their personalities also vary from the extremely friendly, to the extremely chaotic! We’d like to find them all homes as pairs or in a larger group.
To apply to adopt a pair or more of these sweet boys, please fill out an adoption application form.
These sweet brothers are estimated to be born some time in early February of 2023. They were part of a large hoarding situation in Gatineau/Hull area and were luckily saved by a kind woman who spent weeks and weeks saving hundreds of pet rats from being exterminated.
They are currently tiny, excitable bundles of energy and joy and spend so much of their time tumbling and playfighting with each other. To follow their crazy antics, please visit their foster dad’s Instagram @ratcafe14
Pebbles and Piccolo now just need a loving forever home where their human family will give them lots of love, care, attention and the space and stimulation to grow into being happy, chubby boys.

Are you looking for the sweetest, cuddliest, friendliest boys ever? If so, look no further, because Pumpkin & Pebble will be your ideal companion rats. Both boys are so sweet, friendly and the cuddliest boys around. Once they’ve had a little play time, they love to just chill with their foster mom on the couch. Pebble will actually flop on his back to take a comfortable snooze right beside your leg. On our way home from getting his photo taken for this website, he actually flopped on his back in the car to get comfortable.
There boys are estimated to be born in January of 2023. They were surrendered by their breeder to the Montreal SPCA, who the transferred them into our care.
We hope they will find a loving home where they will get lots of yummy treats, plenty of space to grow and lots of gentle belly rubs while taking a nap on the couch with their human.

These two sweet girls are estimated to be born in late November or early December of 2022. They were part of two oops litters from when a young man purchased rats from someone on Kijiji and the girls turned out to be pregnant.
Thankfully, he has been doing his best to take care care of them and to handle them every day. Both girls are extremely curious, adventurous and friendly. Jade especially will climb anything and loves to explore!
All they need now, is a loving forever home that will give them tons of attention, lots of space to grow into, and the care they will need to ensure they get to grow old together.

Meet brothers Socrates & Ben, two of the sweetest boys ever! They were definitely well-loved and cared for by their previous human until life-changes made them too expensive to care for. They arrived to the Rescue in perfect health and used to being handled. In fact, they seem to really ENJOY being held and calm down once they get to spend some time in your sweater or your arms. It has taken them some time to get used to their new foster home, but it really only took a week to settle in. They are now zooming around in their free roam area and climbing all over things to get to their foster mom.
We were told that the boys are 9 months old, making their date of birth some time in May 2022.
If you’d like to keep updated on their adventures with their foster mom, please follow @melanie_falardeau on Instagram as she posts videos of them almost daily.
If you are interested in offering these sweet boys a forever home, please fill out an Adoption Application form.
Please note, since Socrates is neutered, their adoption fee is $100 (total for the pair). This is to help us recoup a third of the cost of their vet fees.

These two boys are estimated to be born in late November or early December of 2022. They may look nearly identical but Spot has a large white patch on his chest, while Speck has a tiny cluster of four white hairs on his chest. They were part of three oops litters from when a young man purchased rats from someone on Kijiji and the girls turned out to be pregnant.
Thankfully, he has been doing his best to take care care of them and to handle them every day. Both are extremely curious and friendly, but will take a bit of time to warm up to new people and things. Unfortunately, both arrived with mild respiratory infections, so they will not be available to go to their new homes until they complete 14 days of antibiotics.
Soon they will be looking for a loving forever home that will give them tons of attention, lots of space to grow into, and the care they will need to ensure they get to grow old together.

She is now completely better, but we just need to finish up about 7 more days of antibiotics to ensure she stays health. Ava was the shiest sister when she first arrived, but now, with lots of patience, treats and love, she is starting to come around.

Update: Feb. 13, 2023, Pluto has been neutered to help resolve some hormonal behaviour towards his brother.
These brothers were born from an oops litter when a couple purchased some rats from a pet store and they got a big surprise when two of the girls ended up being pregnant.
Despite arriving with mites, and being extremely skinny, after just a few weeks with our loving foster family, they are now healthy and put on some weight and muscle from being able to run and explore (as baby rats should!).
Ever since Pluto’s neuter, he’s become the perfect boy! He’s friendly, comes when called, likes to give you kisses and is always so excited and happy to see you. Best of all, he’s now always cuddling his brother and bouncing with happy energy. Goofy has also completely changed now that he can finally relax around his brother. He loves to climb and explore and although he can still be a little dramatic when being suddenly touched or picked him, once he gets to know you, he also comes when called and will crawl all over you.
If you think these are the right boys for you, please fill out an Adoption Application form. Please note, because Pluto is neutered, the adoption fee for this pair is $150 total.
We estimate that they were born some time in July, 2022.
