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.

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 Ripley, Seven, Newt, Inara, Janeway, Torres, River and Kaylee

These girlies are looking for their new home in groups of 3 or more.

This is a stunning little group who are just full of mischief! They’re curious, social and are ready to play at any time of the day. They’ve been well-handled and love human interaction. When they first arrived to us at Woodgreen, they were a little cautious with being picked up, but with time they are proving to excel expectations and are all ready using you as their escape route.

Being young, they’re at the perfect stage to create a strong bond with their humans. If you can offer some (or all!) of these girls a home, please do get in touch with us via the website.
