This is the place for pet rat information: care, veterinarians, rats for adoption, etc. Pet rat owners and lovers meet to talk about these wonderful creatures. We want everybody to know that pet rats make excellent pets and we want to educate ourselves about their proper care, as well as to have socials, shows, and other fun activities. 917.887.5169; 908.330.2579.
