Smidge, Creek, Rye and babies

Adorable baby alert! Meet Smidge, a lovely mom rat, her two sisters Creek and Rye, and daughters Minnow, Myrtle, Noir, Newt, and Tou Tou. A kind person rescued three young female rats from a situation where they were unwanted and poorly cared for, and one arrived pregnant. Mom and<br/><br/>sisters are believed to be 7-9 months old as of August 2026, so possible birth dates<br/><br/>between November 2025 and January 2026. The babies were born July 25, 2026 and will be available for adoption September 5th when they are old enough to be separated from their mama. They are very busy and active with friendly personalities.<br/><br/>Proof of a proper enclosure is required: one with solid floors and shelves to prevent foot injuries, bar spacing small enough to prevent escape or heads getting caught, good ventilation to prevent respiratory issues, and enough room to climb, explore, and provide enrichment activities like digging, burrowing, and balancing. Four cubic feet per rat is optimal. Like other animals, rats are very intelligent and need mental stimulation. They are also social creatures so they should be adopted in pairs at a minimum. Rats are heat sensitive, so cage placement is important: an area in the home that does not get too hot in the warmer weather. They do best in areas that are completely dark for at least 8 hours a day with no nightlights or other ambient lighting. They can be adopted in pairs or more. Their adoption fee is $40 for the first two, and $15 for any additional babies you cannot resist adding to your family.
