Deleted pix as they are outdated.


Let me know if anyone is interested--adoption fee is $15 per pair and an additional $25 for us to build a cage roomy enough for 2 rats if you don't have one already.  We can build bigger cages if needed too.

ETA~There are more pix at www.nikitaswish.org

Bumping for these babies.  I just got a call about 10 more babies that need a place.  We have to move babies to make room for more.  They will end up at a pet shop for snake food if we cannot make room.   Cry

I have a place for the dumbo rex boys and two of the girls but still have several in need of homes.  Anyone in Ohio looking for some super cute and sweet ratlets?

Well....guess what...one lady was supposed to be adopting Daphne (who's eye is all healed now) and the 4 rex and double rex boys but she waited until the last minute (while she was traveling by--she is 6 hours out) to phone and I wasn't home so now Daphne,Stewart,Blake,Curly and Maverick are looking for homes again! Undecided  They are all such cuties and I am sure they will find homes but it is so frustrating that I have been holding them for a week for this lady and now....UGH!  Anyhow, sorry for the rant....if anyone would like some super cutie babies....I can hook you up.

PS.  The other 10 were all adopted by the original owner!  So that was good!

Sorry Wolf, but as a rescue we do not adopt to breeders or people that are sending their own babies to a pet shop because they are going on vacation.  I really wish you could see that what you are doing is just not right.  Thanks anyhow.

i'm finding ways to get around the whole vacation thing and my parents with the rats. not like it'll redeem myself in anyone's eye, but they won't be going to the pet shop. it was only a last resort, and i'm finding ways around it. you have the decision to accept or reject anyone, and i have to respect that, which i do.

I am glad to hear that you have worked it out so they don't have to go to a pet shop! You don't have to redeem yourself in anyone's eyes.  You know if you are doing right and that is all that matters!

i'm sure we've all known tough times and tough decisions. it would have been the last last resort. i'll just pile tons of food in the cage and all my parents will have to do is change the water bottles, which are outside the cages. i always try to do the right thing, and not only with the rats but in general. half the time things fall through because it's me. but i'm trying, and working around things. and i hope your kids find homes too =)

Well, if you need trasport help, I'm picking up Stewart, Maverick & Curly on 7/13 and bringing them back to Pittsburgh, PA.    (tempt, tempt) 

I didn't let my hubby see the agouti boys because we recently got an agouti berk, my hubby's fav, and I think he'd have snatched up those two (Speedy & Teddy) and I'd have to give up 2 of the ones I wanted!   Ratty Smiley

Oops.  I did answer this is the PM. We will have an odd number since ANN is taking 3. LOL.  But Waffles has decided to hold off adding a rattie at this time.  So we still have 3 rattie boys looking for homes.

Blake~blackish-chocolate-ish dumbo rex
Speedy and Teddy~Agouti dumbo rexes

I may just have to keep the Blake-meister!

Those black berks always seem to get that rusty brown fur off and on, then it seems to stay as they age.  My Gino is a big wide berk!  Not fat, just W-I-D-E!  He looks like a big brute...hence the name 'Gino'.  Sounded like a 'muscle' name!   Yellow Cute Laugh  Though he DID protect my tiny D'Marco (adult weighing only 364g) when I was doing intros with our newest, Nunzio.  Anytime Nunzi threatened D'Marco, Gino jumped right in. 

Woo-Hoo!  Pick up my boys tomorrow!  CAN'T WAIT!  Need yo go get my travel cage ready!  Ratty Smiley Blue Dumbo Smile Ratty Smiley
