Hi Everyone,

I am foster mom for 17 gentle & tame baby rats. ALL are ready for adoption now. I have hand-raised them; they are tame, brave, and REALLY do not bite. They even like to cuddle and be petted. Various colors; creams, browns, plus several black, brown or cream hooded. They have had a check-up from the doctor and are healthy and sound. Ages range from 6 weeks to 4 months.

All of them get along (luckily, one positive outcome of their early confinement), and rats do make better pets as groups, so please consider adopting 2 or 3 together (boys or girls). I am in SF very near Animal Care & Control, which is where all of these siblings/cousins were dumped on Wednesday Dec. 15th.

You may have read about the surrender elsewhere. [On Dec. 15, 178 rats (yes 178) were dropped off at San Francisco Animal Care and Control.] Please adopt 1 or more of my little guys! I am available for adoption visits most days; $10-20 donation adoption fee, incl. neuter if needed, through SFACC. e-mail me to arrange for a visit. Photos available on request, although they are growing so fast i can't keep up! Better just to meet in person. e-mail me at amonk1@juno.com
