Roses grand daughter
I wonder if she thinks sheās winning
TRIGGER WARNING!!!
I did have to record a seizure for the vet. He has them so often it was easy. I didnāt want anyone to think this wasnāt a real emergency. And if your animal has seizures, you now know what to look for. Everything I work for is for my animals. They are literally the reason why I get up in the morning! I wouldnāt be here without them. The rats are like layers of my skin, a part of my soul. My dogs are my children. If all doesnāt go well and I have too, I will be stating a go fund me and I will be pushing for it! His appointment is tomorrow morning. I will keep you updated.
The sound is off because I started wailing and Iām sorry.
We want to let everyone know that all the proceeds from these litters will support our beloved baby with no eyesight. By adopting from us, you're not just bringing home a new pet; you're also contributing to the care and well-being of other surrendered rats in need of medication and assistance. Thank you for helping us make a difference.
Rescue/Surrendered Rats
These babies were an oops litter that was surrendered to us. They arrived in rough condition, covered in mites, with their poor ears covered in sores. They had to be rehabbed and recovered and are now ready to find loving homes.
We are accepting visitors to meet the rescue and surrendered rats. These wonderful rats are looking for loving forever homes and would love to meet you. To schedule a visit, please fill out the application pinned at the top of the page and reach out to us when finished.
Did You Know?
Rats have a remarkable memory and are excellent learners. Once they learn a navigation route, they rarely forget it, which makes them proficient at finding their way through complex mazes and environments. Adopting a rescue rat not only provides them with a loving home but also offers you a chance to experience the joy of having an intelligent and interactive pet.
Iām working through things sorry guys. I know all my rats are around the same age. And big daddy and max are the last of the originals.
Any ways, I got this cute video of everyone sleeping in the ice cream stand.
I try to give the moms individual out time, the rooms pretty safe for rats. A lot of the cords are tied up so they arenāt laying on the floor and thereās no exits for them to escape. Probably the safest room in the house lol
Rat room
For those of you curious about where I keep my 35 rats, it's right here in my small sanctuary. This is a space where i keep an extension of myself that lives and breathes with me. They are a part of who I am. Despite my occasional complaints about stress, I wouldn't give them up for anything in the world. The whole right side is girls. The whole cage is connected so they can use all four cages freely. Then the boys are on the left, the top two cages are connected together and the bottom two are separated for breeders. The cage in the front is also our breeding/recoup cage.
Not sure if yāall knew but I also rehab winged rats. This lil guy ( I can only take one or two in at a time) is so sweet and he definitely thinks Iām mom. He will take cute lil naps on me and itās the sweetest
So the wild rats are going back to mom or at least to the same area. The owner of the property doesnāt kill them so Iām ok with returning them home. They are so far advanced THEY STARTED MAKING AND FINDING WAYS TO LEAVE THE CAGE!!!! When Iād try to put them back I would just receive multiple bites to the hand š¤·āāļø they are wild so Iām not mad maybe a little sad and betrayed lmao! This is their very basic instinct you know? It probably took years to get the fancy rats we have now. They are so fast and incredible. Two passed one with no red from the nose or eyes, sneezing or any markings so Iāve concluded (with the confirmation of my vet friend ((thank youuu))) tht they more then likely passed from poor genetics. And the other from swelling to the brain. They were so far advanced they could climb long before mine could and still climb better, we assume because I did not see , that she fell from the top of the cage conked her head and the blood had built up on her brain. That was tragic and hard to see. I wasnāt prepared for how far the grow compared to fancies. The person who surrendered them also agrees it would be best for them to be returned to the wild where they have a chance to thrive. They were an amazing learning experience, in a way they taught me to appreciate the rats we have now, even the poor tempered ones. In their brief time with us, theyāve left an indelible mark, reminding us of the wonders of nature and the interconnectedness of all creatures. Thank you for sharing this enlightening journey with us.
I tried to make a semi educational video lmao at least I tried
Omg they are trying bits of moms food! I always give fresh fruits and veggies so at least they are trying the good stuff lol
The wild babies are doing great! Iām super curious about their personalities! What will they be like? They hold onto my fingers like little squirrels. Itās super adorable.
I would fight for these babies I love them so much. This has been a super fun litter
There is still a waitlist and if your interested in adopting your welcome to apply for it or ask about it. Iām currently working on our next two litters. One is roses half sister Vienna sheās due probably next week. And then we will try Stella after but I really wanna plan it right so we get some super friendly babies from her.
But this current litter is all now claimed sorry guys !
So last night we got some wild babies that were dropped off in an emergency. And they were pretty much the exact same age as mochas babies so I accepted them and I let her know that thereās a chance she could reject them. lol she didnāt and now she has five extra babies that I will be rotating in and out of litter so everyone gets what they need from her. She literally snatched up the wild babies with not a second thought. We did end up washing the babies at like 1 am after they got here cause I didnāt want anything like mites and stuff going to mom. And we ringworm checked too. They seemed healthy but dehydrated.
Now I get to learn a little too as I watch these babies grow and adapt to pet rat life. Some will be going back to the rescuer for her and her class.
