He loves to play with Dave and climb around in his cage. He is a mellow guy who just wants to hang out. He will happily sit on your chest and enjoy some scratches or take a nap.<\/p>\n<p>Dave (Black and white variegated): Dave is a very friendly, goofy little rat! He spends his time waiting to be picked up from the front of the cage and playing with Spencer. He will climb right up your arm out of the cage and he loves to explore.<\/p>\n<p>Derek (Black and white masked): Derek is a rowdy chaos maker who just wants to play! He has a lot of energy to burn and loves climbing and running around. Adventures are his passion, and he will appreciate lots of enrichment.<\/p>\n<p>Jason (Himalayan, has a black spot on his ear): Jason is a bit of a shy guy who likes to take it slow. He prefers to come to you in his own time over being plucked out of the cage. He is a sweetheart and wouldn&#8217;t hurt a fly!<\/p>\n<p>Aaron (Himalayan): Aaron is a laidback boy who is down for whatever. He will happily hang out with you outside of the cage and is a fan of coming up and grabbing your fingers to sniff and lick you. He likes to take the lead of his brothers and has a serious case of FOMO (fear of missing out)!<\/p>\n<p>These boys are very patient and handleable. They would do great in a home with children who are gentle! The only crime they will commit is stealing your heart!<\/p>\n<p>Spencer and Dave are bonded and need to stay together.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-6\"><p><strong>Derek<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ibb.co\/C3vJJGwV\/Derek.jpg\" alt=\"Derek\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Jason<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ibb.co\/7NYdxt2c\/Kathryn-Jason.jpg\" alt=\"Kathryn Jason\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Spencer<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ibb.co\/wZXwRqx7\/Spencer.jpg\" alt=\"Spencer\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Dave<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ibb.co\/QgJPQz0\/Dave.jpg\" alt=\"Dave\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Aaron<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ibb.co\/ZpDFjjrD\/Kathryn-Aaron.jpg\" alt=\"Kathryn Aaron\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":37527,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[136,130],"class_list":["post-37470","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-available","tag-babies","tag-kid-friendly"],"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/mainelyratrescue.org\/rattieblog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/KathrynSpencer_thumb.jpg","author_info":{"display_name":"Jamie Cross","author_link":"https:\/\/mainelyratrescue.org\/rattieblog2\/author\/jamie\/"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mainelyratrescue.org\/rattieblog2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37470","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mainelyratrescue.org\/rattieblog2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mainelyratrescue.org\/rattieblog2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mainelyratrescue.org\/rattieblog2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/24"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mainelyratrescue.org\/rattieblog2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=37470"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/mainelyratrescue.org\/rattieblog2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37470\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":37529,"href":"https:\/\/mainelyratrescue.org\/rattieblog2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37470\/revisions\/37529"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mainelyratrescue.org\/rattieblog2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/37527"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mainelyratrescue.org\/rattieblog2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=37470"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mainelyratrescue.org\/rattieblog2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=37470"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mainelyratrescue.org\/rattieblog2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=37470"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
