Rats in NC

[katrina_herron]

I have 6 babies that need homes. 5 boys and 1 girl. They are a cream color and black berks. Mother was a feeder that was apparently pregnant when my husband bought her. They are now 5 weeks old. I am in the Charlotte area, and can travel a little to get them to their forever homes. You can email me at Katrina_Herron@yahoo.com if interested.

I might be interested in two little ones. same sex. I do alot of children class room and boyscout meetings with my rats so they have to be very friendly. I know at this age they usually are if you have handled them alot. I live in near Raleigh, NC. Some of my rats are getting old and ready to be just cuddled by their mom and close friends. I could really use some new little ones for the kindergarden presentations. What is the mom's health like?

[katrina_herron]

Mom is healthy, but not very friendly. She came out of a feeder bin, so was not handled very much or at all. My husband only had her a week before she gave birth. She can be handled and petted, but not a big cuddle rat. She is an amazing mother. My husband didn't handle the little ones a lot before I got them, but I try to take them all out and cuddle with them. They are coming around.

[rattie]

As long as they can be handled I can work with them. Do you have pictures?

[rattie]

I want either two girls or two boys I would prefer two fawns but I will take one of each color. I wasn't sure of which ones were the boys and which ones were the girls in the picture.

[katrina_herron]

I think I can work out two fawn boys. That is the only color I have left in the boys.

[rattie]

when could I get them. If they need handling alot the sooner the better. I really need them friendly by Easter. I usually do the kindergardens when they study the letter R. and they usually do this by Easter. especially handled by children, this works out easy for me because I have a 6 yr old that loves rats

You wouldn't happen to be coming anywhere near Charlotte in the near future? I don't really travel much, but we could meet up somewhere halfway or I could try going out to Raleigh. Whatever works best for you.

[rattie]

I could probably plan a sunday trip to
charlotte on October 26th if that would be okay. I am not sure how far Charlotte is from Raleigh though. Maybe we could meet half way.

[katrina_herron]

That day is good for me. It is about 2 1/2 - 3 hours from Raleigh to Charlotte.

[rattie]

okay then I can drive that in one day so I will plan on driving to Charlotte that Sunday to get the babies. I will need you to email me with directions. I will email you my email address.

Let me be sure that I am getting what I think. two fawn males. this is right?

[katrina_herron]

Two fawn males is correct. Getting to Charlotte is pretty simple. I believe you just take I-40 to I-85.

[rattie]

okay when I get to charlotte where do you want to meet?

[katrina_herron]

I've been thinking about that. Obviously somewhere easy to find. Would a restaurant or Wal-Mart be fine?

[rattie]

That is fine with me.  What ever is easier for you. I can look it up on mapquest hopefully if not I usually ask for directions at gas stations anyway. I am leaving here early Sunday morning and should be there no later than lunch.

[katrina_herron]

OK we can meet at Wal-Mart. I'll have to look up the address and get it to you.

[katrina_herron]

Ok I sent the address.

[rattie]

sorry I did not get the message please send address again
