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 cuddling, and lounging, and love to explore. So far, they’ve been great with their litter box and cautious, but willing to try all sort of new healthy foods.

If you are looking for two, sweet boys to join your family, please fill out an adoption application form.

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.

These two sweethearts were quickly adopted, but due to changes in their former adopter’s personal life, they could no longer keep the boys and so Ralph and Norton are now back at the Rescue almost exactly 1 year later. They are still very sweet, curious and just needed a little TLC. Now we just need to find these brothers a forever home where they can thrive again and make someone else incredible happy with their antics.

If you believe you can give these brothers the third chance that they need, please fill out an adoption application form.

Gizmo and Gumshoe are the sweetest, most friendly boys we’ve met in a long time! And despite everything they’ve been through, they managed to maintain their wonderful personalities and warm up to new people very quickly.

Gizmo and Gumshoe are brothers, with an estimated date of birth of July or August of 2021.

According to the person who surrendered them to the Rescue, she purchased them from someone on Kijiji who had in turn originally purchased them from a local breeder. When these boys arrived, they were extremely skinny, covered in lice and all of them had thin, rough fur. Gizmo especially basically had no hair left and you could see his thigh bones and back vertebrae very clearly. After just three weeks of proper parasite treatment, good food and a clean environment, both have gained significant weight and Gizmo even got all of his hair back! It’s safe to say they are now feeling wonderful and so ready to find their forever home.

Here’s what their foster family had to say about them:
Gumshoe:
Little Gumshoe is a true detective. He has to sniff and check out every hand that’s put in front of his nose and every nook and cranny of every place he’s given the chance to explore. He is cunning, brave, and even gives occasional licks. He likes being pet and held but prefers to stay in motion. If you’re holding him, expect he’ll find some way up to your shoulder or even to the lookout point on top of your head.

Gizmo:
Gizmo is a sweet little boy who likes cuddles and treats. He is shy but enjoys company once he’s warmed up to you. He can often be found following closely behind Gumshoe, letting his brother do the dangerous exploring while he takes a more cautious approach. He loves a good scratch behind the ears and is very food motivated.

If you believe you can offer Gizmo and Gumshoe their forever home please fill out an adoption application form.

Meet brothers Rocky, Zuma & Skylar. Their mother was originally purchased from Pets World to feed a snake. Luckily, the snake wasn’t feeling hungry and a kind lady offered to take in the mom rat. What she didn’t know was that the mom rat was pregnant, and she gave birth to 8 babies on April 1, 2022, including these three.

All three boys are amazingly sweet and well-mannered. They love to hang out with their humans, explore their plan area and cuddle with each other.

These boys are looking for a loving forever home where they will have tons of space to grow and develop, and a loving home where the humans will consider them part of the family.

Please fill out an adoption application form to apply. Rocky, Zuma & Skylar can be adopted with their brothers Marshall & Chase.

These babies have been handled since the day they were born, and you can tell they were showered with love. Pebbles and Nori are incredibly sweet, lovely to handle, and are perfect little beings who just need a loving forever home and a family to call their own.

Half-brothers, Buddy and Button were originally from a rat breeder in Ottawa where they were going to be killed. You can read about their story here. Luckily, their former owner reached out to the Rescue and after a neuter and several weeks of socialization, Buddy & Button are now ready to find their forever home.

Button is estimated to be approximately 11 months old, while Buddy is 3 months younger. Of the two, Button is the leader, the adventurer and the super outgoing one. He’s always eager to greet new people and is completely fine with being held and handled. Funny enough, when he’s had enough, he’s usually the first to squeak in protest.

Buddy has come a long way and is now finally comfortable with being pet and handled. He still doesn’t enjoy it the same way Button does, but he’s no longer fearful and in fact will now run towards his foster mom instead of away from her during playtime.

Because of the multiple homes Buddy and Button have already been through, we really hope to find them a loving forever home with someone who has the time and the experience to give these boys the love they deserve.

Buddy & Button soaking in some love.

This pair of adorable sisters are ready to win over your heart.

Linda & Dolly are estimated to be born late November of 2021. Of the two, Linda (black and white) is more outgoing (and some may say) a little bit bonkers, while Dolly (white) is just as friendly and sociable, but she actually stays still (sometimes). Both girls will perk up immediately when you enter a room, and they’ll follow you around no matter where you go like tiny puppies. They are literally the most perfectly adorable and well-behaved companions anyone could hope for.

If you believe you can offer these two girls a loving forever home and a second chance, please fill out an adoption application form.

This adorable mother/daughter pair are ready to win over your heart.

Patti, the mom is estimated to be born in July of 2021, while her daughter, Emmylou was born in later November of 2021. Both girls are sweet, dainty and just need a bit of time to come out of their shells. Patti, the mom is especially active and adventurous and would love nothing more than a large enclosure and lots of time outside the cage to explore and climb things.

We would strongly prefer if Patti could also be adopted with her two other daughters, Linda and Dolly.

Brothers Miso & Tako were surrendered to the rescue as day-old babies in March of 2021. They were quickly adopted and until recently, have been spoiled and lived a rather wonderful life. Unfortunately, Miso became hormonal aggressive and their adopters decided that they could not handle this new development and did not want to go through the neuter, so they were returned to the Rescue.

We promptly got Miso neutered, and he’s back to being a sweet, fun-loving and wonderful boy. Of the two, Miso is definitely more of a cuddler and loves to give you little licks and kisses. Tako is bigger, more active, and in terms of personality, is a little more adventurous and food motivated. Both of them love people and run up to you as soon as you call for them. They are also almost 100% with their litter box!

They are not picky at all about their veggies and will happily accept all healthy treats. Their favourites though are definitely banana, edamame and grapes.

If you are interested in these two sweet, perfect boys who need a third chance at finding their forever home, please fill out an adoption application form.

Meet sisters Nessa & Fingold who were born at the Rescue on Feb. 3, and Feb. 19, 2022 respectively.
Their mothers are sisters who were found dumped in a box on the side of the road in Napanee, ON. Luckily, a kind human found them, and brought them to the Rescue.

These babies have been raised with so much love and care and have been handled since the day they were born.

We would like these girls to go to a loving forever home where they will have tons of attention, and large enclosures where they will have plenty of room to grow and play. These two girls can be adopted with their sisters, Yavanna and Nayla.

Beatrix & Nora have not had an easy life so far. We estimate that they were born November of 2021 and are most likely sisters. On one of the coldest days of winter, they were found in a taped up box on the side of the road in Napanee, ON. Luckily, a kind human found them and brought them to the Rescue.

Unluckily for us, they were in that box with a male and were both pregnant. Beatrix gave birth on Feb. 11, 2022 while Pip gave birth on Feb. 3, 2022. Understandably, both of them arrived at the Rescue extremely timid and shy. Beatrix especially had a nipping problem, but this was mainly due to her strong instincts to protect her babies.

Now that all of the babies have been weaned, and Beatrix and Nora have spent close to a month with a loving foster, both of them have had a complete change in personality.

Nora especially is now completely careful and such a joy to be around. She loves to be picked up and is always begging to come out and ride around on your shoulders. You would never guess based on her behaviour that she was ever tossed out in a box!

Beatrix meanwhile has also made huge progress, and while she’s still a little bit timid around strangers, it doesn’t take her long to warm up to you and climb into your lap. Both girls are definitely ready for their forever home!

Beatrix and Nora can be adopted with their friends/sisters, Pip & Lexi.

Pip & Lexi have not had an easy life so far. We estimate that they were born November of 2021 and are most likely sisters. On one of the coldest days of winter, they were found in a taped up box on the side of the road in Napanee, ON. Luckily, a kind human found them and brought them to the Rescue.

Now that all of the babies have been weaned, and Pip & Lexi have spent close to a month with a loving foster, both of them have had a complete change in personality.

Pip is so sweet and fun loving, and always ready to come out and say “hi”. She is very gentle when taking treats and does not mind being picked up for belly kisses at all.

Meanwhile, Lexi is still just the tiniest bit shy, but once she gets to know you, she’s so sweet and will often try to quietly clamber into your lap for a quick sniff and pets. Both girls have a come a long way but are now ready for their forever home.

Pip & Lexi can be adopted with their friends/sisters, Beatrix and Nora.

Blue & Fiona were surrendered at the Montreal SPCA at the beginning of 2022. We suspect they are about 3-4 months old.

Both girls are active, playful, friendly and otherwise healthy. Of the two, Blue takes a little longer to warm up to new people, but once she is settled in, both girls are wonderful companions. They are looking for a loving home where they will continue to be spoiled with good food and lots of space to run around.
