Our Mission
We rescue, rehabilitate and rehome abandoned, sick or injured rats and strive to place healthy, happy rats into loving forever homes. Our team provides clean and entertaining habitats for our rescues while they are awaiting adoption.
Where we Are
We are based in Manchester Tennessee in Coffee County. We take in rats from all of Tennessee, southern Kentucky, all of North Carolina and northern Alabama and Georgia.
Our Healthcare
Every rat that comes in to our rescue that needs medical attention will get it. We only spay or neuter in emergency situations in order to save our vet fund for life threatening sicknesses.
Our Vet:
Coffee Animal Hospital
184 Interstate Drive
Manchester, TN 37355

Our Staff
As we are highly understaffed, we've taken many roles upon ourselves. If you wish to volunteer with us as a full staff member or simply a foster home, please do so through the Contact Us form.
