A small, all-volunteer Philadelphia rat rescue/advocacy/referral group, launched in 2012. We have been 501(c) 3 since June 2017!

We cannot take rats from shelters usually, pet stores, large hoarding situations, wild rats, or personal pet rats from private owners in most cases unless we have room (if you have grown tired of your pets or are moving, it is your responsibility to find

We have 3 Martins Rat Cabins for sale to help raise funds for our vet fund. They are 24x14x24. These are the best rat cages bc they're escapeproof and chewproof, but are not made anymore. Each Rat Cabin is fine for 2 female rats or 1 male rat.

We also have one Martins guinea pig cage for sale, suitable for arthritic rats needing one level.

Prices negotiable. You can buy one or more.

If interested and in the Philly area, please email: [email protected]

Pick-up only.

See sample photo.

Sanctuary news:

Today TOASTY had to be put to sleep due to several inoperable tumors, one of which got infected. She had had surgery when she arrived last year to remove a small tumor, but after that several larger ones popped up.

She is now with her sister CHEESY. 😭
