Luigi

About

Meet Luigi! Luigi is a handsome senior, born 1/3/2024, who was recently returned to the rescue after his human could no longer care for him. He and his brother Mario were adopted as babies. He lost his brother and has been content as a single. He has not been receptive to meeting new rat friends and has been overbearing and bitey on introductions. He is curious and interested in people, and will come out for treats and some pets. If you ignore his boundaries, you are likely to get a bite, so good reading of rat body language is a plus. Proof of a proper enclosure is required: one with solid floors and shelved to prevent foot injuries, bar spacing small enough to prevent escape or heads getting caught, good ventilation to prevent respiratory issues, and enough room to climb, explore, and provide enrichment activities like digging, burrowing, and balancing. Like other animals, rats are very intelligent and need mental stimulation. Four cubic feet per rat is optimal. Rats are heat sensitive, so cage placement is important: an area in the home that does not get too hot in the warmer weather. You can apply to adopt these boys: https://furangelsas.com/application/
