Wilma, Amy (special needs) & Nutmeg

Posted on September 14, 2020October 27, 2020 by Rachel Shen

Meet this trio of unlikely friends (from left to right), Wilma who is about 1 year old, Amy, who is estimated to be 1.5 years old and Nutmeg, who is around 7 months old. All three were brought into the rescue from dire situations. Wilma had a small mass and a hernia on top of a respiratory infection. All of her health issues have now been completely resolved. She is a lovely girl who loves to play hard, but then cuddles just as hard. Amy was surrendered by a family who ignored her obvio...

Poppy, Pixie, Ivy & Lucy

Posted on August 6, 2020October 5, 2020 by Rachel Shen

These 4 tightly bonded girls range from 8 months old (Lucy) to the eldest, being 18 months old (Ivy). Sisters Poppy and Pixie are estimated to be about 1 year old. We would like to find them a home together as each of them relies strongly on the other for comfort and confidence. Of the 4, Lucy is definitely the most shy. She may never exactly be a human rat, as she much prefers the company of her sisters. Once she's out of the cage, she's quite confident in exploring and running around on her...

Ellie (sponsor me!)

Posted on July 20, 2020August 25, 2020 by Rachel Shen

Sweet elderly Ellie was surrendered to the rescue covered in lice, with a respiratory infection and initial symptoms of PT (pituitary tumor). We were honestly not even sure if little old Ellie would make it. Miraculously, with the love and care of her foster, plus the right antibioitcs and cabergoline to treat her PT symptoms, Ellie is almost completely back to being a normal rat. She's a little cuddlier than most, and she does sleep a lot, but you would never know that just a few weeks ago, ...

Ronnie & Ru

Posted on July 2, 2020August 6, 2020 by Rachel Shen

Meet adorable sisters, Ronnie & Ru. These two fun, quirky girls were estimated to be born around Sept. of 2019. They are inseparable and absolutely love chilling together in their hammocks. They are extremely friendly and well-socialized and came from a home that obviously cared a lot about them, but unfortunately just ended up with too many rats to have the time and resources to provide for them in the long-run. Especially seeing as Ru is hairless, she will need a family that is knowledg...

Duckie & Dove

Posted on June 29, 2020November 2, 2020 by Rachel Shen

Meet friendly, adorable sisters, Duckie & Dove. These two were born Dec. 28, 2019, and have been handled since the day they were born. Unfortunately, their breeder ended up with too many rats, and decided she would stop breeding and get rid of about half her rats. Duckie & Dove need a home where they will have lots of space, toys, and plenty of time outside of their cage to interact with their humans where they can live out the rest of their lives together. If you are interested in adop...

Nydia, Azumi & Haven

Posted on March 3, 2020June 29, 2020 by Rachel Shen

Meet this trio of sisters who had a rather interesting start to life, but are now looking for that perfect family to take them in. Nydia (hairless), Azumi (beige) and Haven (black) are estimated to be bout 10 months old. Their previous human unfortunately had to give them up due to health issues, but overall, kept these girls healthy and relatively well-socialized. Of the three, Nydia is the most friendly. She will happily be picked up, and climbs right up into your arms! Azumi, is just a lit...

Bella & Lily

Posted on January 1, 2020January 30, 2020 by Rachel Shen

These tightly bonded girls are estimated to be about 1 year old. Although they have been passed through several homes, miraculously, they have remained extremely friendly, social and loving. Bell and Lily are two perfect little girls who are still young enough to actively seek their human out at every opportunity, but just mature enough that they are very calm and so very easy to pick up and handle. Both girls seem to recognize their name and will come running to you when called. They love hu...

Mimi & Hazel

Posted on December 12, 2019January 8, 2020 by Rachel Shen

This Mother/Daughter pair are about as perfect as rats can be. Minnie was part of a seizure done by the Brampton SPCA when they had to remove over 30 rats from a home. Unfortunately, she was already extremely pregnant and shortly after, gave birth to 7 babies. Minnie herself is an extremely friendly and sociable rat. She loves people, their shoulders and especially treats. Her daughter Hazel is just as well socialized and is a miniature, grey version of her mother. She's a little more shy, es...

Reba & Dolly (sponsor us!)

Posted on May 13, 2019November 4, 2019 by Rachel Shen

Reba & Dolly were abandoned at the SPCA in Gatineau in mid 2019. Both girls are in their senior year and were left at the shelter with visible mammary tumors and respiratory infections. Unfortunately, the shelter was unable to provide these girls with the veterinary care and surgery they required and so reach out to us for help. Reba & Dolly are now with one of our permanent foster homes where they will live out the rest of their lives (whether that be 6 months or 12 months, or more). Reba...

Rosalind and Bella

Posted on March 19, 2019June 5, 2019 by Rachel Shen

Meet adorable, 8 month old sisters, Rosalind and Bella. You will not find a friendlier, or more sociable pair of rats anywhere. Rosalind is absolutely bonkers and will climb on anything, including you. Bella is definitely slightly calmer and more willing to stay put long enough for a few pets. The pair make a perfect duo, with Rosalind running around like crazy, and Bella hanging out with her humans. Please note these girls must be adopted together as they are tightly bonded. Rosalind w...

Ella & Ninja

Posted on February 21, 2019April 15, 2019 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...

Sammy & Lisa

Posted on January 29, 2019March 19, 2019 by Rachel Shen

Meet sisters, Sammy & Lisa. You will not find a more friendly or adorable pair anywhere else. These girls LOVE to run in their wheel, so we will say right now that any home that wants to adopt them must have at least one 12" Silent Spinner or similar wheel. Absolutely no wire or mesh wheels please! Other than that, they are not picky about food, they are friendly and curious with everyone and they love to explore and be with their humans. To apply to adopt these lovely ladies, please f...

Helga & Myrtle

Posted on January 4, 2019February 21, 2019 by Rachel Shen

Sisters Helga and Myrtle came from a situation where they were being bred for snake food. Due to their not-so-ideal start to life, both sisters are very shy, but are curious. Estimated at just under 6 months old, Helga and Myrtle are looking for a loving forever home that can patiently win over their trust and spoil them like proper house pets. If you have the time and the love they need, please fill out an adoption application form.

Smokey, Pinkie & Snowy

Posted on November 19, 2018August 30, 2019 by Rachel Shen

This trio of trouble-makers will light up your day and make sure you never have a dull moment when they are awake and around! Sisters Smokey, Pinkie & Snowy were abandoned at the SPCA in Gatineau, and were transferred to the rescue soon after as they would have a better chance of getting adopted. As well, Pinkie had a severe inner ear infection upon arrival. She was unable to walk straight or even balance enough to hold food! Poor girl was not doing well at the shelter at all. After 2 month...

Pebble & Yukon

Posted on November 19, 2018April 8, 2019 by Rachel Shen

Meet baby sisters, Pebble and Yukon! Don't ask us who is who, because thus far, they are pretty identical. These two baby girls are an estimated 2 months old and unfortunately came from a hoarder who originally had intended to feed them to his snake. They, along with 21 other albino rats, were surrendered to us when he realized that he just had too many rats! Pebble and Yukon are slowly coming around under the kindness and persuasion of their foster mom. They are curious, but still skidd...
