Rat sanctuary, rescue and welfare
'Shadowrat rat rescue and sanctuary', Lowestoft, currently has space for EMERGENCY CASES ONLY. We also have more space for males than females at current, so please only call regarding females in urgent cases. We have been taking in and caring for unwanted, mistreated and abandoned rats for over 10 years now. We specialize in rats - of any age - with behavioral problems, special needs, and those 'imperfect' rats that may get turned away by larger rescues. Biters always welcome. We are also happy to give rat advice via phone or email, but please appreciate emails may take a few days for a response. Please note: We are currently only open for *emergency/urgent cases*. This means any rat whose life is in immediate danger: strays abandoned outside, those with no safe place to go, or those facing euthanasia. Please do not contact us at the moment to take in non-urgent cases such as not having time for the animal anymore, or the kids getting bored; we will unfortunately be unable to help with these situations at the present time as our limited spaces must be saved for the more needy rats. We are in Lowestoft, Suffolk. We will travel within the local area, but for rats located further afield, contact to discuss. We do not currently have any rats for re-homing, so please do not inquire about adoptions at this time. Shadowrat *will* help individual wild rats who are injured or otherwise in distress or at risk. However, please appreciate we are a small, home-run set up and do not contact us asking for help to relocate large numbers of wild rats off your property: we simply don't have the facilities to do that. Phone on 24/7. In the case of true rat emergencies, call any time day or night. Read More
