I've started my own website, and one of my biggest goal is to organize a list of rat rescues that is as complete as possible. I've found that most lists I've come across so far is only partial, many of them out dated with incorrect information, etc and it wasn't easy to find one place that has all the rescues listed.

Granted, it's only a start, but I've already combined a few lists I've found online and have contacted everyone to make sure that all the information is still correct. I'll add onto it as I gather more info, and also plan on contacting everyone in regular basis so the list can be updated as time goes, so this doesn't turn into yet another list that contains too many dead links, rescues that are no longer operating, etc.

In the future I would hope to add rescues outside of the states too, but right now I'll focus on the US rescues only. If you know of any other rescues that are not listed on my site, notice any incorrect information, etc please email me so I can update the page. In order for me to make this list work I would need everyone's help, in gathering information as well as spreading the list out there. If you have a website, I would also appreciate it if my link can be added onto your site

Here's the main site
www.crittersnest.com (Click on the rat picture on the top right. Rest of the sections are still being worked on)

Here's the link to the actual rescue list

Let's sticky this thing for a little while to see if it helps.

I don't really know much about it, but there's a rescue in CO.  http://www.freewebs.com/raerrf/index.html

Heatherbee, the link you gave says it doesn't exist

Taku, thanks for the info. I'll definitely look into it. I'd like to contact the rescues first and make sure that they ARE indeed rescuing, so as soon as I get in touch with the person I'll post her info on the site

That's weird.  I took it from the website.  oO  But yeah, this one works.

Heatherbee, thanks for the link. Email sent and once I hear back from them their info will be on the site.

BadRattitude, I hear you about the cats. Some animals just find their ways to us Your info has been updated and I've sent the emails to the rescues you listed. Thanks!

It looks like this will take longer than expected, mostly just oragnizing and sending out mass emails and WAITING. Getting return emails, delayed deliveries, permanent failures, sending out more emails, and of course wondering if those emails I haven't heard back from are still active. It looks like it'll be yet another task to maintain this site to be current but I'll give it a shot!

Hi Mindy with the RMCA here. I believe the address you have is incorrect, for Furry Friends Orphanage, we are in the process of getting a new PO Box. In  the mean time you can put the contacts of our board members:
Diane Carson     949-631-4513
Debra Newgard  949-770-0323
Mindy Van Neck  714-750-2352

It is ok to list these here, these are our rescue numbers
I will get back to you as soon as we get a new PO Box
Thanks!

I run a tiny tiny rat rescue in my home. Take Two Rat Rescue.. PM me with any info you need.

Yes that's the correct link. I've changed it and didn't realize I posted the old link here

I'm having some server issues so I haven't been able to udpate it in a few days. If you've sent me new updated info and don't see it online, don't worry it's been updated on my file I just haven't been able to upload it. I'm contacting the hosting company to figure out what the problem is and as soon as it is resolved current info will be uploaded again. Thanks everyone for all your help!

I do rodent rescue [rats & hamsters], Mine's Gizmo the Tzu's Rat Rescue [A sub-rescue of AMRT.net]. If you'd like anymore information you can email me at gizmothetzu@yahoo.com.

LOL Amy, Babyblue....I mentioned you and Tara around the 16th of January. I'm so glad to see you here again!! Another person with much rattie experience is always wonderful to have.

Don't forget Heather with Rats Rock Rescue in St Louis. Her info is on Petfinder.

Im actually looking for a rat rescue, around me, I live on the Eastren Shore of Virginia, so Virginia Beach, Maryland, and Deleware, are good.
