Please make sure your application was approved before submitting a deposit.

Pet only adoption fees are as follows (must a have rat of same sex in household). For a single standard size rat $25, single dwarf $35, single aurora $35, single Harley coat $35, and please email about individual pricing for Manx. Depending on the outcome of each litter prices may vary slightly. Breeders will be priced individually. Retired adults and older juveniles are $10 unless otherwise marked.

Due to people backing out, a 50% deposit will be required to reserve a rat. The 50% will be out of the total amount of the adoption fee. This deposit is non-refundable. We accept cash and post office money orders only. All adopters that send in a deposit are moved up on the waiting list. I have no opinion on when people send deposits in, if you would like to wait till the litter is born that isn't a problem, but I WILL NOT hold rats without a deposit. If no deposit is received, then the rat(s) will be 'Available'. Once the deposit is received your rat(s) we will be 'Reserved'. Plans to pick-up your rat(s) will need to be made a few days to a week prior to the adoption date. If we have not heard from you within 48 hours after it is posted that the litter is ready to go home, then the rat(s) will be 'Available' again. For more information please visit our Adoption Policy page.

** At one point we did accept PayPal for deposits, but after running into some issues and people not understanding that all deposits are non-refundable we have decided to stop offering it as a payment method. If you have any problems with putting a deposit down in cash or money order please look elsewhere to adopt. We will not waiver on our decision.
