Adopt a Rat, Canada - the other website

Post by Shelagh

Some of you Canadians might remember CanadaRatFinder.

It was a wonderful website where you could literally go into your province and find the shelters nearest you. There would be moderators "taking care of" each shelter and they would post available rats and info, plus any contact info needed. It was kind of like One Stop Shopping for Shelter Rats.

Well that board was sadly abandoned, but a wonderful woman in B.C. affiliated with SARS decided to make up her own website. It's now up and running, I am a moderator for the THS and Toronto Animal Services, and it looks like people are adopting rats using this tool.

The board is in its infancy, and we still need Moderators for many provinces and shelters. There is a post on there if you are interested in helping out. Its not difficult at all, a few minutes a day is all it takes me right now.

So bookmark this page, you never know when someone might need it if not yourself.

CBC radio interview this morning.

This morning I was interviewed on CBC radio about what to do when you find a rodent outside, and why it's not humane to let them go. I thought it would be more about the rescue, and I sort of bombed that question as it was the first "What do you do at the rescue?" and I said "Well, a lot of cage cleaning, to start!" I explained how to manage the smell from male mice, who are odiferous, and our hopes to one day neuter male mice to give them a better chance at adoption and perhaps a better life in company of others. I also explained the life of a domestic rat outdoors, and how it ends in predation, but I also gave positive rat-recovery stories, such as the recent one in Ottawa where a male and female were found and trapped, and had warbles removed (I explained what warbles were in a matter-of-fact, scientific manner: bot-fly larvae).

Unfortunately I didn't cover any of my talking points about how we need adoptions and volunteers.

If I find an audio archive of the show, I will save it and post it here.
