Due to Kimberly's severe and life-threatening health issues, Rattie Love Rescue will be going on a hiatus until further notice. All rats are spoken for, no rats are left. Thank you!

Welcome

Hi there! Welcome to the Rattie Love Rescue website. We are a privately-run, in-home, not-for-profit small animal rescue, located in Cincinnati, Ohio. As you can probably guess by our name, our animals are mainly domestic pet rats, but sometimes pet mice or other small animals find their way to us.

June Hammock Fundraiser

Evergreen Rattery is holding a fundraiser for us! They are selling home made hammocks and 100% of the proceeds will benefit Rattie Love Rescue. Currently, we are hoping to rebuild our very depleted vet fund and purchase another cage or two.

The hammocks are make of quality polar fleece with trim accented with a fancy stitch. They are machine washable and the corners are triple stitched. There are 5 different designs (Rectangle, Corner, Tube, Rectangle with Cuddle Pockets, Cube), available in small or large (or custom sizes are available). Two colors are currently available - tie-dyed blue and tie-dyed purple.

Prices are extremely reasonable! Shipping is FREE worldwide! This is going on now through June 30th, 2008, so get those orders in ASAP!

Please consider supporting Rattie Love Rescue and purchase some hammocks for your ratties (or other small animals!). Thanks!

Happy Birthday, Rattie Love Rescue!

In all the hub-bub of a lot of surrenders coming in, lots of adoptions and lots going on in our personal lives, we completely forgot that RLR's first birthday was May 4th! Goodness, time flies! Thanks to everyone who's supported us!

Urgently Needed

We need at least one more quarantine home ASAP. It's a matter of life and death for a group of rats in need! Please read our volunteer page for info and contact us if you can help. Spread the word, if you can't!

"It's a Rat's World"

We are the featured shelter in "It's a Rat's World" Magazine, for April! We're super-excited about this opportunity. Be sure to get a copy (or better yet, subscribe!). ;)

Oh Wow

Lucky Us

A wonderful woman named Branwen was so generous and wonderful to RLR! She donated 2 brand-new Martin's R-695 cages to us. We are so happy with the new additions, especially since Martin's has made the doors larger! Thanks so much, Branwen!

Lawyer-Type Needed

We are hoping to obtain our 501(c)3 status this year. We need the help of a legal professional who would be willing to offer their services. Please contact us if you think you can help!
