These are our Greek gods!!, they are 7 male rats who have come in for rehoming as their owner moved out and didn't take them. The ages are 1 year plus, a couple seem older but we were not given any information about them.
They have been living as a group but we have had to split them due to space. They are looking for new homes in their groups or as singles to go with existing male rats. The boys are all alittle nervous but are ok to pick up and handle once they know you
Welcome to the Sussex Brighton and East Grinstead Branch of the RSPCA. We are an entirely self-funding charity, run by an active committee of volunteers who are trustees of the Branch funds. The Branch is responsible for the Brighton Animal Shelter at Patcham.
Over 3000 animals are cared for at the Shelter each year, including dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, reptiles, foxes, badgers, hedgehogs, chickens, ferrets and various birds, both wild and domestic. Facilities are available for almost every animal until it is ready for
re-homing or release. Please take a look at all the animals that currently need re-homing, as well as lots more information on boarding, donating, events, volunteering, and lots more!
