Same

Our amazing community should be so proud of how many are adopted, fostered, volunteers spending time with them and donors supporting us in this mission.

Thank you!

🎉🥳Congratulations Chaos and Nyx🥳🎉 on finding your forever home. These two precious little babies went to their new home today. They will have two older sisters to show them the ropes in their new home. Honestly so happy they found a home but was hard to see them go. I will miss them during free play and morning eggs. Chaos was named that for a reason. Raising them has been nothing less then magical. Best wishes to Chaos and Nyx and their new family.

Pouches of babies. There’s 5 babies stuffed in each pouch. The girls are hilarious and pure chaos. And even chaotic forces love a good cuddle.

The final six babies. That makes a full 18 babies. I missed gendered one of them and had to make sure that I didn’t miss any others before I move them to the boys and girls baby cages. This litter is 5 girls and one boy. I thought it was 4 and 2 but was wrong. I named this litter after my favorite Disney characters. I’d like to finally introduce Mirabel, Ariel, Tiana, Belle, Elsa and the boy is Scuddle. So the final count is 4 boys and 14 girls. Did not expect such a difference between the number of girls vs boys. Boys tend to be the preferred gender due to them generally being mellow compared to girls. I personally love both. I will also say I did name a girl Chaos. Just saying. Minerva is the mamma of this litter. She is the calmest of the trio of mammas. So I’m hoping that hippyish trait transferred to these babies. Two weeks before they’re ready for adoption but the first 12 are now ready for homes.

I got a basket full of babies. All nine girls are in the basket snuggling. They just moved out of moms house and throwing house parties now. It’s pure chaos.

🎉🥳Happy 2nd Birthday Preston🥳🎉 This month Preston turns two years old. He’s been with us for almost a year and half. Now that he’s two years old, he’s officially now a sanctuary hamster. He’s going to stay here with us and just enjoy his retirement. He may not have gotten adopted, he did find his forever home. He’s been a joy and is very calm during free play. He usually just finds a corner and takes a nap. They only time I see him get excited is fruit and veg night here. Preston is happy and healthy so I hope to have him around for awhile. He’s going to be getting a new hide for his birthday and retirement party. Keep an eye out for Preston updates.

Litter 2 names. Four girls and two boys. Used all my favorites Greek/Roman god names. The last two names are other god names I like. Hercules and Ba’al are the boys. Mamma Demeter also did great work making these babies.

Here is Mamma Venus babies, litter 1, learning how to dig and climb. They’re so busy and clever. Only took them a few minutes for them to figure out how to get out.

On June 15th the day after the three week anniversary of their rescue, Minerva gave birth to a gorgeous litter of six babies. I thought we were out of the woods with having more babies. Hera was pregnant but she reabsorbed them. Minerva and Artemis are they youngest girls and I was hoping she would do the same as Hera. It’s common for first time pregnancies in rats. And still can happen at any age. We were doing Greek/Roman gods as a naming theme. I fill like we’ve done enough of that. With this litter I wanna do Disney characters. One girl for sure will be Mirabel. Any other suggestions?

The babies eyes are open now and they’re exploring. Here they are trying scrambled eggs for the first time. Gotta get that protein to help their little brains grow. They’ve now had egg, yogurt and fresh fruit and veg. They also go through more rat food then I expected lol.
