My basic info
Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Our adoption process can be found on our website here: www.mnpocketpetrescue.org/process
Hello there! I'm Mickey, the rat with a spirit as big as a mountain. Life is an adventure for me, every corner of my cage is a new world to explore. My pal Ricky and I have the best time solving the mysteries of our surroundings. My curiosity knows no bounds, and I'm always eager to learn more. I'm independent, but I love to watch my foster, studying their habits and routines. You might even catch me doing something goofy to make you laugh. I'm not just a rat, I'm a companion, a friend, and a source of endless entertainment. I promise to bring joy and excitement to your life. So, why not bring me home? You won't regret it!
