Britt — Petraits Rescue


Dear Friends of Petraits,
Britt is a sweet, gentle, friendly, healthy and extremely handleable, eight-week-old, female hairless Sphynx rat looking for a loving guardian.
This girl came into rescue all by herself and easy to pick up and handle.
Her main diet consists of rat blocks, but she also enjoys very tiny bites of a lot of other foods including brown rice and beans, fruits: apples, cherries, grapes, strawberries, melons and plums, and veggies including broccoli, peas, carrots, cooked sweet potato, kale, parsley, bok choy and squash. Rats can get diarrhea if you give them too many treats.
You can add a few drops of olive oil to her food to help her keep her skin from getting dry.
She loves to come out of her cage to crawl up your arm and body and spend time with you. She is not a biter or scratcher. She is very gentle and sensitive.
She is currently in a small cage and comes with food, litter, water bottle, and hidey toys and hammocks for an adoption donation of $100 to the Friends of Petraits Rescue.
She is currently being fostered in Chicago’s Andersonville neighborhood.
To meet and possibly adopt Britt, please contact [email protected] for an adoption application.
