Four dumbo rats adopted from a pet store surprised their owners with 29 babies in late July. As the parents were cinnamon dumbo hooded and rex, we expect the babies are at least in part rex and/or dumbos. Kim's Ark is looking into the possibility of having at least some of the rats spayed/neutered, so not all will be available immediately, but we'd love to have adoptive and foster homes lined up in advance. Transportation is readily available within a reasonable distance of Canadensis, PA. The Ark is working out arrangement for foster care in Scranton, PA, and transportation into Delaware is in the works.

For more information, email kimsarkadopt@gmail.com.

Sorry, no photos yet.

There are a couple of potential adopters in Delaware who may be able to help with transport to VA.

Several rats made their way to new homes this week, and a couple more are spoken for, but several are still available -

Two beige dumbo girls
Two beige top-eared girls

Two beige top-eared boys

There are a few additional currently spoken for but not yet adopted - of course this may change and more may become available.

Hi!  If you have any dumbo girls left, and if there's a way to get a ratty to Northeast Missouri, I'm very, very interested!

Thanks,
Susan
