looking for a breeder closer to me(MA)

[Rachel]

I'm in western mass(worcester is NOT western mass  )...in northampton, which is between amherst and springfield sort of...and I find it hard to believe that there aren't any rattie breeders closer to me, as I need some new babies, and it's very difficult to work driving distances into my schedual as I work odd hours(I *do* need time left for rattie play  )...so, I was just curious if there were any decent rattie breeders around me...I'm not looking for anything in particular I guess...just healthy, well socialized ratties

oh yeah....I do not breed rats.

Kim runs a rescue organization called Kim's Ark on the East Coast- and is VERY good about transporting.  Her e-mail is:  ksomjen@yahoo.com

I tried with her : / she's very nice and willing to work with people, but the closest she could meet me is an hour away, which does tend to strain my pathetic car

rachel - you arent going to get much closer than an hour, there are no breeders (at least repuatable ones) closer to you. i will be in hadley MA on june 15th , and i will be in grafton/shrewsbury this coming week may 28th if you would like to meet then. i will be travelling up to MA via 84 and 90 so i pass through sturbridge, etc - any of those places close to you?
