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, ...
Hello, Several weeks ago, these 2 male and 5 female PEW mice along with a few other brothers and sisters who have since found homes were left at a Bay Area ...
Oh gosh this is so sad! Please someone take these sweeties! I have a couple of small cages I will give whoever takes them. I will ship them free. Just let me...
Thank you for the offer of the cages Nancy. I just received confirmation of one of my House Rabbit Society people who will take 2 of the females so I will...
Oh I hope so! I don't have any little mousies myself right now but just took in some pathetic gerbils, 2 died but the rest are hopefully going to be okay. My...
I'm happy to report that on Saturday I will have the pleasure of delivering the mice to their new homes! Special thanks to Susan of the House Rabbit Society...
I couldn't sleep last night thinking about those mice, wishing there was something that I could have done. Thanks to all of you that looked for homes for them...
I only have one menlo park boy and he's been sick. Gasping, breathing hard etc. The vet said his lungs are scarred, he's on nebulizing treatments everyday...
Sorry to hear about your special guy. Sounds like scarring from myco. I only have 2 of my Menlo guys left, they were all juveniles when I got them. I think ...
Hi Jennifer, I'm sending good thoughts for your boy, too. This sounds like how my little Menlo girl, Sophie, acted at the end - and with her it was a lung...
Just call me crazy..... I went to the feedstore today to pick up some supplies and someone had left an old rattie in a rusty old cage there. The poor guy has...
Congratulations on your new "Guy"! He sounds like a very lucky rattie! Laura Just call me crazy..... I went to the feedstore today to pick up some supplies...
I want to thank everyone for sending good thoughts to my kerwyn, ever since yesterday morning he's been actually doing quite well and eating more, taking his...
Oh - I'm really glad Kerwyn is better. Feeling good enough to bite someone is pretty good! We haven't had anyone try to bite while we change their bedding,...
