Pala and her sisters were picked up by Jenny along with a baby boy and a slighter older baby boy, and 4 tiny malnourished orphans that she raised. The owner was habitual at dumping these poor rats at the Hamilton Animal Control and one of the 5 girls actually escaped in her car, and she found her in the glovebox, so she had to bring her back again. I agreed to take the 5 little HAC girls who were around 8 weeks old. They were funny and gorgeous and all had different personalities. Pala was the shyest of them all, a no-touch or I bolt type of girl for most of her life, but she LOVED her sisters. She was the first of the 5 to leave me.
They were monsters to any rat outside their cage, huffing, grabbing and screeching, but they actually have helped some of my older male rats that needed to lose weight. One boy would lie staring at them out of reach, taunting them with his presence...while they got sooo frustrated. I am sure he was laughing inside LOL
At Jennies, she is the black hoodie looking at camera, always looking shell-shocked. She was incredibly timid.
