A berry common tale.  A call comes in, “We had 2 rats and now we hab two hundred and elebenty!!  All these rats and they keep habbing more rats…. can you help us?!?”  Dis is what happened to the Vancouber Rat Club on a dark obercast day, and their rescue heroes sprung into action!   Eberyone mobilized to sabe these rats.  Sebenteen moms who all had lots ob babies, but we need to find them homes, they said!  They got them all to safety and took care ob them until they were ready to trabel.  Some were adopted in Vancouber, but we need more homes.  Send them down south to the United States someone said – so they did.

Wiff lots ob teamwork a great rat train was formed wiff wonderful bolunteers to help the rats trabel (because it would be really long walk, and like eberyone knows, trabel juice is not easy to find during Cobid).  A bunch ob the rats packed their bags and were driben across the border to Best Friend Rodent Rescue in Ebberett WA, where they are right now.  On Saturday, some ob them will trabel again straight down the map to Grants Pass, OR to a chapter ob Rattie Ratz Rescue where three ob our boys are waiting for their new Canadiam brother!  Once they are united, the train will continue and soon there will be rats distributed all ober Southern Califorbia!!  You get a rat!  You get a rat!  Eberybody gets a rat!!

FANK YOU to all the great people that helped coordinate, transport, foster, and all the work it took wiff this big rescue effort – Jayne Stanfield, Ratt Anne Olive Stanford, the lady we can’t talk about who goes across the border in top secret, Mary Jarman Karr, Ashley Donnel, Laura Rakestraw, Amanda Frost, Forest Higgins, Ena Roque-Vizzini, Molly Michaela Darling Roque and eberyone at Rattie Ratz, Joanne Gemmer and the team at Best Friend Rodent Rescue and all the folks at Vancouber Rat Club and Vancouber Animal Services!  And to all the people that make dis happen ebery day all ober the country – and all the countries.  Those who foster, rescue, transport…  You are all HEROES!
