Rats, the forgotten rescue pet

[Catherine]

There is no doubt, rats get slightly worse publicity than reptiles.

Most people do not see them as pets at all.  That is what motivated Rebecca to found Guelph Rat Save. She takes rats from big shelters where they have little chance of finding homes.  She gets rats from people who want to get rid of them. These rats are all gentle loving creatures who deserve a chance at life.

Now she needs good homes and some funding. People are not quick to donate to a rat rescue.

She is right. Rats a gentle and intelligent and they deserve better from life than they get.
I wish them every success with fund raising.
