Other notes: LaRatte can be handled but is very shy, and hides if she sees the foster. When the foster does handle her to get her used to it, she is offered treats after but only sometimes will take the treat, and other times will immediately hide again.
La Ratte, Vitelotte, & Bintje were born in rescue shortly after their mothers arrived.
Due to our rescue being foster-based, not all foster homes are located in Saint Paul, MN. This animal's foster parent prefers to meet at the Petsmart - 1640 New Brighton Blvd, Minneapolis, MN 55413 for meet & greets, & adoptions.
Fee: La Ratte, Vitelotte, & Bintje have a combined adoption fee of $50
We absolutely DO NOT SHIP ANIMALS! Please do not ask.
