Lyra & Olivia

Both girls are also in perfect health and clearly lived in a clean environment. The ideal home for Lyra and O...

Yara & Sanna

You will not find a more perfect pair of rats anywhere. Sisters Yara and Sanna are estimated to be born in July of 2020. They are sweet, attentive, brave, loving and so very smart. They know their names and come when call. Of the two, Yara is slightly more food motivated, while Sanna will literally forego a treat for the sake of playing and interacting with her favourite toy in the word: humans. If anything, the only negative thing about these girls is that Sanna so desperately craves attenti...

Mirabelle & Leonor (spayed)

Meet adopted sisters, Mirabelle & Leonor. These two girls were born Oct. 25 and Oct. 23, 2020 respectively. However, they get along wonderfully as they were raised together. Mirabelle is a half-wild rat, meaning her father was a wild rat, while her mother was a fully domesticated (and extremely friendly) pet rat who had been abandoned outside. Both girls are fine with being held and handled, however, due to their past, they would prefer an experienced home. Strong preference will be given ...

Poppy, Pixie, Ivy & Lucy

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...

Ronnie & Ru

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...

Lexie & Jackie

These tightly bonded girls were surrendered to the SPCA in Gatineau because their previous owner wanted to euthanize them after they got lice. Thankfully, the vet refused, and referred them to the SPCA. Due to their poor chances at the SPCA, these girls were transferred into the care of the Ottawa Pet Rat Rescue. After 6 months with the Rescue, the oldest girl, Blossom, unfortunately finally succumbed to her illness and with careful consideration and support from our vet, she was put to sleep...

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.
