In its own words
Rescue rehabilitation and adoption and fostering of unwanted and abandoned domesticated rats. The Ottawa Pet Rat Rescue uses a network of volunteers and fosters to provide care and temporary homes for unwanted rats until a suitable adopter is available. We also provide long-term permanent homes for palliative care rats and those rats who are unadoptable due to behavioral or health complications.
