Now that I've got my student set up with a larger cage for her lone girlie, I'm on the hunt for a cagemate for her. I have also posted on the Florida Rat List, but I've not heard back from anyone. I really don't want my student to march into a pet store to buy another girl, so I've told her I'd see what I could do through different channels.
This student that I'm trying to help out is a great pet owner and she LOVES the one female rat that she has. She is 16 years old, responsible, and mature for her age. I know that she wants only the best for the girl she has, and she's been awesome about taking advice from me and letting me help her out without getting prickly about it.
She is not picky about color or anything like that. I'd just like to find her a friendly and well-socialized younger (maybe 3-6 months old?) female to be a playmate for the one she already has. I promise you that any rat she gets will be spoiled rotten and given excellent care. I wouldn't have volunteered to help her find another rat if I had any doubt about her ability to provide proper care and plenty of love.
Please contact me via this board or e-mail me at
diabolique1970@yahoo.com if you know of any females needing a home. Thanks for reading this
