Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hello, I'm Marlon, a sweet, and friendly rat. I'm also a bit goofy, curious, and quite playful. I have two best friends, Yeti and Gil. We're the three musketeers of the rescue! I'm ready for a new adventure, a forever home. I promise to bring joy, laughter, and a whole lot of cuteness to your life!

Gil, Yeti, & Marlon were surrendered to MNPPR when their previous owner could no longer afford to care for the number of animals in their care.

Due to our rescue being foster-based, not all foster homes are located in Saint Paul, MN. This animal's foster parent prefers to meet at the Roseville PetSmart - 2480 Fairview Ave N, Roseville, MN 55113 for meet & greets, & adoptions.

Fee: Gil, Yeti, & Marlon have a combined adoption fee of $45

We absolutely DO NOT SHIP ANIMALS! Please do not ask.

Marlon's care while in rescue has not yet been sponsored. If you would like to donate to provide veterinary care, food, bedding, and enrichment for Marlon or other pocket pets in the care of MNPPR, please visit https://www.mnpocketpetrescue.org/sponsor-a-pocket-pet for more information.

More about this rescue

MN Pocket Pet Rescue is a 501(c)(3) organization primarily serving the Twin Cities Metro Area, focusing on education and public outreach. Our intent is to keep all animals in their homes, with their families, whenever possible. We are committed to rescuing those pocket pets that are in jeopardy of being euthanized or are in danger of being abused, left unattended or in other types of vulnerable situations. We ensure all animals receive proper veterinary care, medication and special training for any behavioral issues, as well as to arrange safe, temporary homes for these animals until stable forever homes can be found. Our team is made up of enthusiastic volunteers who work passionately to serve the underrepresented and often misunderstood niche of pocket pets in the overall rescue community and general public.
