Hello, my name is Astra.

Life didn't start out perfectly for me, but things are looking pretty bright now. My siblings and I came into the Second Chance Program with our young mom after being surrendered from a large mixed-sex colony. We were all a little smaller than we should have been for our age, but with lots of good food, gentle care, and plenty of love, we've made an amazing recovery. Now I'm exactly what a young rat should be... healthy, happy, full of energy... with a hint of mischief!

​

I love spending time on my exercise wheel, and I'll never say no to a tasty treat. If you have a snack to share, I'll happily come say hello!

​

I've been handled from a young age and absolutely love people. I'm gentle, easy to handle, and have never shown any biting or nipping behaviour. I'm hoping to find a forever family where I can enjoy lots of playtime, treats, and cuddles.
