Notes: The Ladybird Animal Sanctuary rescued Jenny, along with several other rats who had been abandoned. (You can read their story here)
Shortly after her rescue, it was pretty obvious that Jenny was expecting. She gave birth to 11 babies on November 22. All but one survived and they grew up strong and healthy! You can see Jenny’s babies here and here.

Jenny was adopted with her daughter Caramel, and we’re so happy for her!!

We recommend a large cage to house rats. Something like a Critter Nation cage is the perfect accommodations. When it comes to living space for rats (as for any domesticated animal), the bigger the better.
