Elote, Maize, Mole, and Verde's Story

Meet Elote, Maize, Mole, and Verde!<br/><br/>These cuddly and delightful little rats are looking for a forever home. They are sweet and playful and enjoy being picked up and petted. Elote, Maize, Mole, and Verde can often be seen cozied up into a fuzzy white “rat pile” in the corner of their enclosure.<br/><br/>Elote, Maize, Mole, and Verde are senior rats at about 2 years old. They get along well with each other, but as seniors, are set in their ways and would likely not do well living with rats they do not know.<br/><br/>Rats are social creatures and need to live with at least one other rat friend. Because of that, we are adopting them out either in two pairs or as an entire set.<br/><br/>Rats are great pets, but they have very specific care needs that must be taken care of for them to live happy and healthy lives! Make sure you are committed to meeting these requirements if you are thinking of adopting from us! <br/><br/>- They must have a large, clean cage with solid floors and either shredded paper bedding or fleece covering them (wood bedding can cause respiratory illness). Rats are very active and smart, so they require lots of space, especially vertical space, to explore! In addition to a large area, you will have to give them lots of rat-safe toys to play with to keep them occupied and content. Contact us to get a list of appropriate enrichment ideas and cage recommendations! <br/><br/>- They must have a good quality pellet, with no dried fruit, nuts, seeds, colored bits or processed sugary treats. Ingredients like these pose a choking hazard and can also cause illness due to an imbalanced diet. We like to feed our rats Oxbow brand rat food because it is free from all of the above! Spending a bit more money for good food will save in vet bills later! <br/><br/>- They require vet care. While they don't need vaccinations, they can become ill or have injuries. They need care just like a dog or cat! We can point you in the direction of an exotics vet if you don't have one already! <br/><br/>- They are fragile animals, therefore children must be supervised while handling them. <br/><br/>- We do not adopt out small animals to homes with unfixed animals of the opposite gender. If you feel you are an exception to this, please talk with staff about your situation!
