Lucy (Siamese momma) and her 8 babies

You forgot to say adoption pending for Lucy or something. I claim her!!!

How old are the 3 adult girls? Are they living together?

But it's not that they are really bonded and can't be separated? I am asking because my friend might get two and I would get one. She would quarantine all three but when I come back from vacation I would take the one girl. Now, how old are they?

They're not bonded, though they get along fine.  They would be okay to adopt out separately.  Francisca is about 6-8 months old, Jenny and Cheyenne are about 3-4 months old.  Where are you located?

If I could find someone to help transport (say from Kalamazoo to Gary or such), that might be doable.

Francisca is pretty outgoing and sociable.  The other two are much more skittish, but slowly coming around.  The variberk is not so keen on being held, but will climb on you and investigate people.  All three have been healthy so far.  Some sneezes, nothing warranting meds.  They've all been treated for mites as a precaution considering the environment they came from.

I always strive to be honest in regards to my rats and rescue.

Thanks for the pictures, Chelsey. They are adorable!

Kyssyfur,I hope to get the girl(s) before Christmas but if not I will definitely keep you in mind. Thank you so much!

If you really have someone willing to transport to the Burgh, I would love to talk to you about possibly getting Harvey. I haven't been able to stop thinking about him since I saw him. I know I said no more boys, but lookit him!

I understand.  I don't think it helps anyone to be dishonest about rescue rats, but yes I know that it happens.  I'm not infallible, but I do my best to assess the ratties that come through my rescue.

This weekend, I don't think will work.  I've got "social obligations" up the wazoo.  Ick to the holidays.  If possible, I'd like to include Lin in the transport and get Lucy to her.. but of course Lucy needs to be done weaning her babies.

*lol* your telling me?!  I am getting married in June in MN but I am spending Christmas in Lansing, MI.  My dad wants to make the whole 15 hour drive in one run..... switching drivers every 3 hours.  We have to go look at churches,etc.   Talk about a fun time    So I thought a few rats might make it more fun!

Well, let me talk to Puck and the boys and see if they would like a new friend 

Also, I plan on getting pics of all the kids for Christmas, so expect some pics sometime soon!
