An important message from the Rattie Ratz Board of Directors:

The health and safety of our volunteers, our adopters, and our rats are our top priority during this difficult and confusing time, and we hope that you, your family, and your pets are remaining safe and healthy.

In light of recent news, and in an effort to keep our volunteers safe, we are suspending all public events effective March 16, 2023. This includes all adoption events. At this time we do not know when we will resume public events. Please contact us regarding private adoptions or surrenders.

At this time there is limited evidence to suggest that domesticated companion pets are at risk of contracting COVID-19. Regrettably, we have already seen an influx in surrendered and abandoned pets due to this epidemic. Now is the time to please consider adoption or donating to the rescue!

We appreciate everyone’s patience, understanding, and support during this difficult time. All we can do is plan for the worst, and hope for the best. Thank you for your continued support.
