SuperMom Stubby

Stubby (affectionately named due to her missing her right front leg) is a super mom! Several months ago she was rescued from a hoarding situation where over 300 rats were living in a residence after the homeowners became overwhelmed. A rescue organization took her in along with 120 other rats. Fast forward to about three weeks ago, when there was a bit of an "oops" and Stubby gave birth to a litter of babies. Two of her other cage mates also had litters around the same time. Her cage mates were not interested in being mothers, so Stubby took on the task of taking care of TWENTY little babies. She really is a super mom! Despite her handicap, she is the best mom. She makes sure all of her babies and her adopted babies are kept warm and fed. Her babies were born on January 21, 2022. Stubby will be looking for a forever home (ideally with at least one of her daughters) starting in the beginning of March, once the babies are weaned. <br/><br/>Stubby is a shy rat, and did not have a lot of socialization time with people prior to her transfer to Small n Furry Rescue. She will take treats nicely, but does not like to be handled much. Hopefully once she is able to take a break from nursing her babies, she will get some more one-on-one attention. We are looking for an experienced rat-savvy adopter that will make sure she has time to decompress in her new home.
