Meet Peg Leg
If you’ve never considered rats as pets, prepare to have your mind blown. These little guys aren’t just adorable – they’re affectionate, brilliant, and packed full of personality. And Steed and Peg Leg are the perfect pair to steal your heart (and maybe your snacks).
🏴☠️ Peg Leg (don’t worry – his legs are all in working order) is the adventurous one. He’s got pirate energy, loves to explore, and will come running for treats faster than you can say “yo ho ho.”
🐎 Steed (yes, like a noble steed 🐴) is calm, cuddly, and sweet as can be. He’s your ride-or-die snuggle buddy, happy to hang out on your shoulder or nap in your hoodie while you binge your favorite shows.
💡 Both boys are incredibly smart – they come when called, enjoy solving puzzles, and love interacting with their humans. They’ll bond with you just like a dog or cat would, and they’re shockingly clean for pets (no, really – rats are basically tiny grooming machines).
🩺 They’ve recently recovered from upper respiratory infections and are healthy now – but they do need to be your only rats, as they could still carry bacteria that could affect other ratties. But don’t worry – with these two, you’re getting a full dose of rat love in one tiny, perfect package.
✨ Steed & Peg Leg are bonded BFFs and must be adopted together – they’re a little dream team and would be lost without each other.
So if you’ve got space in your heart (and home) for two brilliant, snuggly, mischievous little guys who will make every day better – send us a message! They’re ready to find their forever home, and trust us, you want to be part of their crew.
