    Well I haven't been around for a while. I finally started a new job which has been keeping me busy. Romero also passed away 3 weeks ago :( I'm still having a hard time with that and putting all my energy in work and working out. The rescue is still going but slowly. We're on hold right now till...

    MRRG was in the Here paper

    Kinda cool. A lady from Here (a local paper) contacted me to do an interview for MRRG. The article was really well done. I made a collage of it. Hopefully this will get some attention and some ratties will get adopted!

    Garek has bloody poop

    We just let the boys have out time and noticed that Garek had some major bloody poop and what looks like a blod clot. He has blood all over his bum. We washed it off and as we were doing that he had another bloody poop. It was quite hard and when I squeezed it the regular poop was in side. So it...

    Rizzo's litter Day 24 pics up!!

    I rescued a girl two days ago. She was listed as being snake food because she wasn't friendly. As soon as I saw her when I picked her up I knew she was preggo. She was huge! She had 7 babies last night. All look really good with nice milk bellies. She's very protective of them so we're...

    Warrick has teeth issues

    I swear this poor little guy can't catch a break. We were giving him a once over today and noticed he has very crooked teeth. I have never had any ratties with teeth like this. How would we even go about this where he's so tiny? Could they straighten as he grows?

    Warrick has a hurt foot

    I'm pretty sure Warrick is trying every way possible to take a few years off my life. Yesterday I noticed he was not using his left back foot. I gave him a tiny drop of infant ibu. Today he's still not using it. Doesn't look that swollen but I'm thinking he must have sprained it? Would it be...

    Leroy's mouth smells

    Leroy hasn't been feeling that great. We checked his teeth the other day and noticed that one of his teeth needed to be trimmed. We've had to trim his teeth before but it has been quite a while. I trimmed the tooth but then it fell out and had a kinda dead look to the root of it. I gave him...

    Emily the Stray rat

    I got an email a couple hours ago that the person's daughter was having supper at her boyfriends and a white rat decided to dine with them. The boyfriend freaked out and wanted to kill it but thankfully the daughter scooped her up and brought her to her moms. Emily is a sweet Siamese Dumbo. I...

    Opinions on adopting to people that smoke in the house

    We haven't had any applications with people that smoke thankfully but it could be a possibility. I have been thinking of putting in our power clause that we will not adopt out to people that smoke in their home because of the rats sensitive respiratory system. I think adopting to someone that...

    40 or so ratties going from NB to MRR

    So a while back SQ rescued some ratties and then I rescued some ratties for her in SJ. All babies so it was easy to put everyone together (males with males and so on obviously lol). MRR said they would take them all. The SJ babies were here for about a week I think and then I took them to Holly...

    Need help from the intro gods lol

    Ok. I really really REALLY want to have the boys together. Sprocket seems to have calmed down a lot. It has been 1 months and 9 days since his neuter. When we had tried intros before his neuter and once after his neuter (it had been close to 4 weeks I think) he went after the nakid boys each...

She didn't have the heart to fed this baby to the snake so she called up her sister and her sister took it and cared...

    Prue is going for xrays

    Prue's belly just doesn't seem right to me. She still looks preggo to me and she isn't a fan of me touching her belly. So we're going for xrays tomorrow. I find her behaviour has changed over the last couple of days. She has bitten both her QT mom's and each time they were just fixing something...

    Not a cat lunch today

    I replied to a kijiji add that said she had gotten a rat and was not working out with her cat. I got a reply back today and I honestly thought it was someone that was trying to pull my leg. They said the cat would bite and scratch the rats and play to rough so they wanted to find them a new...
