Dillinger's Story

Dillinger is a male rat born approximately 01/15/2025 who is looking for a new home with some rat buddies.<br/><br/>Dillinger is a busy, active, funny little guy. He loves stashing bits of cardboard in his favorite little bed, and enjoys rearranging the enclosure.<br/><br/>From his old owner: "I think he would like a lot of space and things to climb on for exercise since he doesn't use a wheel and he likes exploring when his cage gets cleaned and rearranged with new stuff. The boy craves novelty. He also loves building nests with packing paper and is very quick to hoard any new paper that gets put in the cage for him."<br/><br/>He does not love being picked up but is pretty good about handling and we are continuing to encourage him. He is good about going into a carrier if you hold it up to him, he knows that means he is going on an adventure!<br/><br/>Dillinger will NEED a home with other male rats or spayed female rats to keep him company.<br/><br/>We can meet for adoptions within 1 hour of Minneapolis or Faribault, MN. Potentially further- please inquire and we can discuss!<br/><br/>APPLY HERE: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf-XKeCEMgJ9aEA0CR1Pv9NGcoNcMkY0dw2m3DehyChe4ToVA/viewform?usp=header

Tiny Whiskers Animal Rescue's Adoption Policy
The first step is to fill out an adoption application. This includes questions about their proposed enclosure for the animal, food, enrichment, and whether they have an exotic vet or not. We review the response and contact them with any questions we have. Once all questions have been answered and approved, we move on to the second step. This involves submitting multiple photos of their enclosure, fully set up for their animal. We inspect the photos and address any concerns we see. Once we can ascertain that the enclosure meets our requirements, we give final approval for adoption. A meet up is arranged for the person to take home their new pet. At the meet up, we have a contact that must be signed by the person (or legal adult) agreeing to take proper care of the animal, not to breed it, and that they will contact us if the animal becomes sick within the first week, or if they are unable to care for the animal any longer.
