Family and environment

What kind of family am I looking for?

Rats make excellent pets for all the family; they are inquisitive and affectionate and love to come out and play. These girls are looking for a family who will have patience and gentle handling for them to feel safe and grow in their confidence. 

What type of environment would suit me?

 Rats need to be housed in a large cage filled with suitable enrichment to keep them interested and active. The ideal size cage for 3-4 rats is: 80cm deep by 50cm wide by 80cm high.

About Minnie, Lily and Billie

Minnie, Lily and Billie, these girls are ready to find their new family. They love exploring, and are a very busy trio! These girls aren’t keen on being picked up, so are looking for a patient home that will understand their boundaries and help work with their confidence with handling. However, don’t mistake this for shyness! They’re incredibly curious and will come over to see what your doing. They absolutely thrive when out free ranging, happily coming over to investigate and use you as their very own climbing frame. Lily is certainly the boldest of the group, where she will be plotting her next great escape, Billie being more reserved and will be watching from her very cosy hides; she loves to her house filled to the top with soft bedding! Minnie will flitter between her sisters, and enjoy taking in all the different smells you have on your hands!

If you can give these girls their forever home, please do get in contact via the website.
