Jacob

Posted on May 27, 2016July 12, 2016 by Rachel Shen

Sweet Jacob has come a very long way and anyone who meets him now would never guess that he used to be a terrified, aggressive rescue from a hoarder. Estimated to be just over 1 year old, Jacob has been neutered, properly socialized and now just wants a home with 2 or more female rats and a human lap to call home. Although it will take a week or more for Jacob to warm up to you, once he does, he is the perfect cuddle-buddy and fellow couch-potato. He loves to just lay on your stomach or on yo...

Gaston & Chias

Posted on April 18, 2016May 6, 2016 by Rachel Shen

Meet Gaston and Chias who were abandoned by a "feeder breeder" in Toronto. Thankfully, our good friend Alex offered these brothers - and TWENTY TWO other rats - a safe home until they could be transferred to the Rescue in Ottawa. Gaston is brave, outgoing, and definitely wants to be the boss. His right hand man is Chias, who gives as good as he gets. These two are the most friendly and are looking for a home where they will be allowed to have lengthy out-times to burn off all that excess energy....

Pipper & Charlie

Meet Pipper and Charlie. These two sweethearts didn't get much love or attention in their previous home where it seems like they were rarely handled. Pipper (agouti) arrived with a pea-sized abscess on her throat which has now been resolved and 100% healed. She is definitely the slightly more nervous of the two girls. Charlie is slightly more outgoing, and much more easily coaxed out with food and gentle words. Both girls still have a ways to go and are looking for a caring, understanding hom...

Guy & Stéphane medical hold

Meet brothers Guy and Stéphane! These two nearly identical brothers were rescued along with 18 other rats from a horrible situation. Although they were terrified, quick to bite, and sick, with the amount of time and love their foster-dad has given them, both boys are now fully adoptable! Guy is the more outgoing of the two brothers. He spends most of his time wondering around his foster dad's bedroom, going back to the cage only for food, water, or poop-breaks (he's well litter trained!). Gu...

Judith, Seyla, and Olympe

Posted on December 14, 2015February 10, 2016 by Rachel Shen

These 3 carefree baby girls are looking for that perfect home and human family. All three are extremely friendly and outgoing. Judith and Seyla were born at the Rescue three days after their extremely pregnant mother was found abandoned in a garage and taken in by a kind stranger. Olympe was originally purchased from a pet store, then surrendered by her previous human. These girls must be adopted together!
