I can foster, but I can't transport right now. If you or someone else can transport, I'll take either the mother or some young ones of the same sex. -Kathleen ...
Bless your heart Kathleen! Do you live in Berkeley? Would you like me to post to my other rats groups in an attempt to help line up transportation for you?...
Hi All, Kathleen in Berkeley would like to foster a couple of ratties from the Monterey shelter and needs someone to transport them from Monterey to her in ...
It's a dog/rat story: Dog grabs rat, dog owner saves rat (last Tuesday), dog owner feeds rat... And the rat was doing OK until today (dog owner thinks the rat...
Can anyone suggest a local source for Blu-Kote? I'd like to get it quickly. My vet put Toby on Baytril for Bumblefoot, but I think Blu- Kote might be a better...
Hi Kara, Have you found the Blu-Kote? I'm sorry I don't know of any sources but just about the time you originally posted, Nikki on a different rat list...
Here's a fabulous source for Blu-Kote and a few other supplies. The RMCA...Rat And Mouse Club Of America...is an excellent resource on the web as well, for...
I am interested in buying some Baytril online. I hear one bottle runs about $85.00. Is there anyone out there (like two or three people) who would be...

With all my ancient ratties I guess losses should be expected but they are still a shock. Three went to the Bridge just this week. It always seems to go like...
Hi Nancy, Wow - very hard week for you. I'm so sorry to hear about Snowy, Don Juan, and Peter. Our little Menlo Park rattie, Sophie, passed about a month or...
Laura, Sorry to hear of Sophie's passing. I still have 4 of the 7 Menlo guys left but they are getting old. Only one is still super active and he is the ...
I rarely watch TV (thankfully) but was horrified to see a commercial of an upcoming Fear Factor show. I have never seen the show but signed a petition quite a...
I really don't know what they are trying to prove, but that is just sick. They do way too many stunts with rats or any animals at that. I hate that show and...
Really - is there something that CAN be done? Is there a producer and/or any authorities that can be written to, any animal cruelty law where the show is...
Hi - I posted a message on here, listing out some things I thought I might be able to do about the possibility of gross animal (rat) cruelty on the show Fear...
Laura, Look up *Fear Factor cruelty* on the internet and you will find several sites. People are outraged. Another suggestion on what to do is go after the...
The Rat Fan Club has online info about the cruelty to rats on Fear Factor and says that in the season finale, frozen rats will be placed in a blender. On the...
Hi Nancy, Thanks for the suggestions for where to look. I will look, and continue writing, to sponsors, the local affiliate again, NBC again, etc. I am just...
The same stupid thing of putting a rat in a blender but the new commercial shows a dead and stiff rattie. I guess people got to those idiots. Too bad that ...
Well - showing the rat dead - that's a slight shift, anyway. It just feels like such a drop in the bucket (or really, the ocean) when you do all this writing....
There are LOTS of rats in Portland OR at the Humane Society. Looks like a population explosion! They are so cute! Please pass this on to other groups as this...
Hi All, Reggie (ACR# 180775) is a sweet, easy to handle female Himalayan rat at Oakland Animal Services who needs to find a home. Since she is in the...
Another of my Menlo guys died today. That leaves me with only 2 from the rescue. At first I thought my big guy was sleeping. He was laying in a hammock, ...
