Clove and Nutmeg are adorable sweet standard coat, top eared baby girls. Clove is black hooded and nutmeg is beige hooded. They are 10 weeks old. Their mom Wilma is a spunky black hooded rex. She is estimated to be 16 weeks old. All three girls are extremely social and have been handled since Clove and Nutmeg were born. They love to hoard snacks in their cage and run during free roam time. These girls are ready for their forever families. They must be adopted as a trio. The adoption fee is $20 per rat. Please email us at rats@smallangelsrescue.org for more information. It is our expectation that the girls be spayed for optimal health and longevity and to preserve an even temperament. We will gladly provide the contact information for veterinarians in the area who can perform the surgery safely and affordably.

Thank you for considering adoption, rather than supporting the commercial sale of animals. Any habitat should provide a minimum of two and one-half cubic feet of space per rat. Please check with us before purchasing a cage.. Some cages are the correct dimensions but have other problems. We are happy to assist you in choosing an appropriate habitat and can save you time, money and frustration. Remember, there is no such thing as a cage that is too big! Check out The Grotto on the Dapper Rat website for housing inspiration! http://www.dapper.com.au/grotto.htm Unsure how many rats a particular cage will appropriately house?

The rats of Small Angels would like to remind everyone that cedar bedding and pine bedding are toxic to all animals. Please use Carefresh bedding (first choice) or aspen bedding for your animal friends.

Never put your rats in an exercise ball. Exercise balls are dangerous and stressful for all animals. Rodents have poor eyesight. Their vision is even more limited in a cloudy colored ball. They always run into furniture and walls, which they don't see coming. It's like a car crash for them. They back up to try and get away and end up crashing into something else. Its very stressful. In addition, paws can get pinched/broken in the air slits. Animals can easily become over-heated. If they go to the bathroom in the ball, they have to run in their own waste. Furthermore, their great joy in life is exploring and checking things out with their paws and noses. They can't do that in a plastic bubble. Provide a large, safe play area for your rats and skip the ball! For wonderful toy and activity ideas, visit www.dapper.com.au/toys.htm.
