Celeste & Diana

Posted on by Rachel Shen
Meet Celeste and Diana, both so sweet and curious and just joyous to have a second chance.

Lilia & Shelby

Posted on by Rachel Shen
Lilia & Shelby are adorable baby sisters who really don’t need an introduction. Their mother was left to fend for herself on the streets, but was thankfully captured and brought to the rescue before she gave birth. They are typical friendly, bouncy babies, and are looking for a wonderful home, together!

Joy & Molly

Posted on by Rachel Shen
Joy and Molly are almost opposites of each other. Joy is a little crazy, super outgoing, brave like she's 7 feet tall (even though she's actually tiny, even for a young female rat!) and is the most vocal rat we have ever heard in our 4 years as a rescue. She takes every opportunity to escape, and hands? Hands are just platforms, to be used at leisure when adventure is on the horizon! We seriously can't say enough wonderful things about the busy-bee that is Joy. Oh, and did we mention, she's ...

Chico & Pikko

Posted on by Rachel Shen
Meet Chico and Pikko, an adorable mother-daughter pair who are extremely bonded and would like to find a loving home together. Chico and Pikko were abandoned at the SPCA Gatineau along with the father rat and several other babies. Having never had a decent loving home, both girls were extremely nervous and scared, but after spending a month with our experienced foster-mom, both have made incredible progress. Both are curious, and despite their fear have never bitten or even nipped. Both ar...

Fleur & Cosette

Posted on by Rachel Shen
These two sisters are looking for a patient, understanding, loving family who has experience with rats, or are willing to work with them, through thick and thin. They were rescued from a very bad situation along with 18 other rats, many of whom will also need a special home. The first is tiny little Fleur. Despite her diminutive size, Fleur is quick to protect her much larger sister, Cosette. She is unfortunately still quite prone to nipping, especially when anyone tries to pick her up. Howev...

Pipper & Charlie

Posted on by Rachel Shen
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...

Molly, Maggie & Mr. Moo

Posted on by Kaitlynne-Rae
Meet Mr. Moo, Maggie and Molly, three of the most adorable and friendly rats you will ever meet. Poor Mr. Moo was found trying to survive outside. He was infested by a huge bot fly larva, then later had to recover from a massive abscess in his side and groin. Just when we thought he had found his perfect home, the hormones kicked in, and Mr. Moo had to be separated while he waited for a neuter. Now much calmer, Mr. Moo lives with two of the Blonde sisters, Maggie and Molly who were surrendered a...

Lola

Posted on by Kaitlynne-Rae
Lola is a darling blue hooded who came to us as part of the Mascouche Surrender. She is remarkably outgoing and oh so loving - she loves just curling up against your side and chilling. She went to spend some time hanging out with a foster mom but then stole the foster mom's heart as if it were a cheerio and ran away with it. Suffice to say, she's staying put and soaking up all the love and affection possible. She's with two other rescued girls and can be caught snuggling away her days.
