Not even a week into announcing Gus and he had already found the perfect home! 😍 Congratulations, buddy! ❤️🐍

Gus’ new family is working on upgrading his enclosure and supplies, and is already eating like a champ. We couldn’t ask for a better outcome! 🥰

Mouse and Neo, now known as Lloyd and Harry, have FINALLY found their true forever home! 🥹 It’s been a stressful last couple of years for these brothers, but it was all worth it in the end. 💕 Congratulations, little ones!

If you’re looking for a great cause to support, please consider donating to Salthaven! 💕 These folks have done an amazing job rehabilitating and advocating for Saskatchewan wildlife, and they need help now more than ever.

This is a plea to our community. We MUST raise the remaining $489,840 towards the build of our new wildlife facility so we can continue serving Saskatchewan’s wildlife without interruption. 🦆🦇🐢🐦

This is the final year that we can operate out of our current clinic. After years of searching, we found our fur-ever home located just a few minutes from Regina. This space will allow us to stay close to the community and increase our capacity to rehabilitate wildlife and provide community education for decades to come!

Every donation counts! Visit our website to learn more and donate to help us build our 3000 sq/ft wildlife rehabilitation facility: https://www.salthaven.org/fundraising-west

Thank you for being an integral part of our journey and for your unwavering dedication toward our wildlife. 💚

It’s not often we get a coffee companion before work! 🥰 Ursula is a sneaky one: she likes to make her grand appearances when everyone is asleep!

We’re a bit behind in posts, so we’ll be playing catch-up in the following says. Usually we try to make a post every couple of days, but our summer has been crazy: broken air conditioner, broken car, personal life and work… We never seem to run short of chaos! 🤪

A green budgie was spotted yesterday at Pioneer Village. If you are in the area, please keep an eye out! 💕 Playing budgie videos may draw its attention to you. Budgies are notorious biters, so if you’re attempting to catch it please use a net or a towel!

Phoenix and Geronimo’s remaining pups will be 3 months old soon, so we decided to update their photos! 🥰

The lovebird who’s been roaming the Harbour Landing area of the city has been spotted again! 🤞 We can still help him!

We’ve been notified that he’s attempting to enter homes. If this bird is trying to enter, please let it in if you can. Our primary goal is to get him indoors, as he flies away when approached outside. Use a towel, a fishing net, a box, or a cage if you are able to. Playing lovebird videos from YouTube can also draw his attention to you. Once he’s secured, contact us or the Regina Humane Society immediately.

Help us save this bird! 🦜

Oops! We forgot to post for Canada Day! 🥲🇨🇦

The 1st of every month is the time we start deep cleans of the enclosures. Between that, housework, and other business tasks, we lost track of time until it was way too late!

We hope everyone had a great time, whether it was relaxing at home, at a gathering, or enjoying the festivities around the city! Louisa and a few others got to enjoy some fresh bedding for the holiday.

Vixey found her forever home last week! 😍 We were originally planning on keeping her as a future breeder—because, well, look at how BEAUTIFUL she is!—but ultimately we decided she deserves to have a hooman family to call home. Congratulations, little one! 💕

It’s been a week and Mr. Knight’s family still hasn’t stepped forward. 😞

While we’re waiting to hear back from the humane society about how we should proceed, Knight’s been enjoying his time at his foster’s house, binkying and getting all the love and snuggles. 🥰 What a spoiled bun.

If you have any leads on whether he’s lost or abandoned, please let us know!

The lovie was spotted again just now at one of the apartments on Parliament. There are several people searching for it now. If you live in the area, keep an eye on your cameras and feeders. Approach it slowly and gently as it may fly away. If you have a net, use it. Let’s get this baby safe indoors! 🙌

Spotted in Regina, Parliament Avenue towards the south. Anyone missing this beautiful lovebird? Please share, and let’s get this birdie captured and back home!

Hi everyone! Roz here! ❤️ Many of you know that the last year has been hectic and stressful for us, but did you know the reason why? The other half of the CrayZfish team—Braeden, my fiancé—convocated today as a computer networking technician. 🥹 Congratulations, my love!

Now, when we have technical difficulties, remember to blame him, not me! 😂

A couple of donations have rolled in the last couple of weeks! We’ve received a hamster bin enclosure with a variety of small animal accessories, and some paper bedding that the donator no longer needed as their last ratty passed away. 💔🌈 Adoptable Chewy says thank you for the supplies!

“Big ol baby falls asleep if you let him just snuggle. He also wears a harness with a helium balloon attached and goes exploring ( with us closely following) around the house.”

It’s time to let the hams out of the bag! 😍 Phoenix, one of our new breeders, and Geronimo had a litter of nine pups that will be four weeks old this Friday! We will be making a post in the following days to officially introduce everyone to the little gaffers, but in the meantime, enjoy this adorable photo we got of baby Louisa winking! 🥹

A few of these hamsters are on hold for customers on our wait list. (Thank you everyone for your patience while we worked on pairing our breeders!) If you would like to be added to the list, please contact us so we can forward the application form!

Mouse and Neo have had little to know interest since coming back to the rescue, which is why we want to give everyone an update!

Mouse and Neo are brothers that were born in late November of 2022. They had been adopted before, but due to unfortunate circumstances beyond anyone’s control, they had to come back. They LOVE their hay and veggies, and are incredibly food motivated! They like to have a variety of chews and hides in their enclosure.

Mouse is an incredible piggy. He loves to snuggle and is always asking for attention! He is comfortable with grooming sessions and nail clipping time. Sometimes he will remind his brother that he is the dominant boy, but he will never hurt him. Mouse is intelligent, knows when it’s feeding time, and when his humans are awake!

Neo is more reserved and skittish, but will follow his brother around when it’s time for an adventure. He likes snuggle time too, but will protest a bit before he settles in. He’s not quite yet comfortable with being groomed, but is tolerant of having his nails trimmed.

If you are interested in meeting Mouse and Neo, please contact us via text, call, email, or DM!

Our Story

We are primarily a pet breeder based in Regina, Saskatchewan. Our focus currently goes towards breeding the M. auratus (Syrian) hamster species, and Procambarus crayfish species.

We also welcome a wide variety of tropical fish, other hamster species, and small birds if they need a new place to stay, or will help them find new homes if we are unable to meet their needs here.

Our goal is to introduce, guide, and educate others who share the passion we have for all living creatures. We are always happy to answer questions and give advice—and the resident pets never turn down an opportunity to make new friends!
