Adoption Policy

* In order to be placed on our waiting list you must first fill out the adoption application below and be approved. 

* We only adopt in same sex pairs. Opposite sex pairs may be adopted only if you agree to have one or both altered by my vet at your expense, in which I will wave the adoption fee for each rat that is altered.

*Adopting more then two is acceptable. Again if adopting males and females together you are required to have either the males or females altered by my vet at your expense. I will wave the adoption fee for each rat that is altered.

* All adopters are required to sign and uphold a contract.

* We will only adopt to ethical reputable breeders that we have worked with in the past or come with a reference from a breeder we have worked with in the past.

* Minors must have parents' consent before adopting. Parents must be present with the minor during pick up and are required to sign and uphold the adoption contract.

* We do not ship our rats. You must pick up at a location near us. Depending on our schedules we may be able to meet with you part way.

* Must provide a photo of the cage set up where the rats will be living. Cage must be pictured with an object that is of recognizable size to use as a reference. 

* Adoption fee is $20 each 

* A $10 non-refundable deposit is required. The deposit is only accepted after the adopter picks out which babies they wish to adopt. The deposit is deducted from the adoption fee when the babies are picked up.

*Please let us know if you are on waiting lists for other breeders.
