🍀 Meet Cookie & Cache 🍀


Cookie (black & white hooded) and Cache (black w/ white tummy) are super sweet young ladies, estimated to be around 4 months old. We were very glad to see these girls come to our rescue rather than be surrendered to a pet store. Cookie is extremely outgoing and loves to participate in anything and everything that you're doing, while Cache prefers to get pets while inside her enclosure. These ratties would be an excellent pair for a first-time adopter, as well as making the perfect additions to an established mischief.

If you're interested in adopting Cookie and Cache, please complete an adoption application through our website or LinkTree, or email us at [email protected].

UPDATE: Thanks to the help of The Pipsqueakery, we are able to get all of the rats out of the hoarding situation. Poet and one of our volunteers are heading to the owners house now to remove the rats and transport them up to Indiana to be spayed/neutered and vetted. Once they're recovered they will be available for adoption through various other rescues, ourselves included.

We truly appreciate everyone who reached out interested in adopting these critters. They will still be available soon, so please keep an eye out if you're still interested. In the meantime, we're bringing ~ 20 already altered rats back from The Pipsqueakery that will be available for adoption immediately. Pictures coming soon! 📷

Hi y'all! We were recently contacted about a rat situation. Just yesterday we had someone reach out with over 100 rats (including werewolf, naked, silvermane, and harley lines) who need homes pretty immediately to prevent them being used as feeders. If anyone would be able and interested in taking in a pair or more, we'd love to assist in finding these ratties homes any way possible. Please feel free to reach out if you'd like to adopt!

LOCATION: We are working with Animal Control in the owner's county to facilitate the removal of the rats from the owner's home. We are located in the Lexington, KY area. Due to the circumstances, we are willing to drive up to 1.5 hours for an adoption and further for any other rescues able to assist with the situation.

GENETICS: These are pet quality rats that were being bred as feeders for the owners raptors, which have already been removed from the home. Due to the situation, we cannot verify the lineage or genetics of these rats, and while we never allow pets adopted from our rescue to be used for breeding (as stated in our Adoption Contract), that is exceptionally the case with these rats due to potential inbreeding.

Additionally, if any other rescue has space to help us get these animals out of the home to then be adopted out, please reach out. We're happy to assist with transport as well.
