Star’s Rat Rescue

The home of Star’s Rat Rescue. Seems rather appropriate to me, and as the name infers, this operation takes in pet rats that need to be re-homed, or sometimes just need their first home. The rescue is run by a fine young woman named Brittney and I have had the pleasure of getting to know her over the last year via RatChatter forums.

She is kind and considerate and has no issues putting the rats ahead of herself. A patient individual that works very hard to help educate those unaware of the great companion animals that pet rats can be, and for many people are.

Star’s Rat Rescue is supported through donations, mostly unsolicited, and by the sales in the SRR Store of Brittney’s sewing handiwork. Hammocks, cubes, cage liners, shelf liners … the list goes on. A lot of the handcrafted items are geared towards Ferret Nations and/or Critter Nations produced by MidWest home for Pets. These types of habitats are common for rat keepers.

I would like to ask my readers to stop over at Star’s Rat Rescue. Take a few moments to read about the rescue operations and see which beautiful and handsome pet rats are waiting to find their permanent homes. Perhaps make arrangements with Brittney to adopt a pair (or more) of these fine pets; maybe purchase an item or two for your own pet rats; ferret and chinchilla keepers using Ferret Nations can benefit, too; or, you could offer something else … I’m sure it would be appreciated.

Everyone Needs a Home

Sometimes there are special animals that need a home, and as a supporter of the Toronto Human Society (THS) I receive emails about the goings on at their facilities.

Recently they have released for adoption two special needs animals, one a dog that has found a new home, and a two month old kitten that still needs a new home.

From the THS:

Regis was sadly stepped on accidentally by either an animal or a human, we are unsure, although we have been told by his previous owner that he was stepped on by another cat when he was very young (about 2 weeks). His rear legs are completely paralyzed from the accident. Now at two months, he is just starting in the cart. Although Monty seems to excel at the cart a little better, Regis is still young and still learning.

… and a YouTube video of this precious little cat:

Besides being a rat lovers, we love other animals, too, especially our cats (and our rabbit).

This is a great video to promote a cat sanctuary, please watch and enjoy …
