Tara of Big Apple Rattery, the host says, “What better way to
celebrate National Pet Awareness month than by having an event for one of
the most misunderstood pets around. Meet other fancy rat enthusiasts/lovers
and spend time with some of NYC’s friendliest rats of different
varieties.
Pet clothing designer, Ada Nieves (http://www.adanieves.com/)
will be holding a rattie fashion show. There will be a variety of rat and
small animal food, treats, toys and items available at great prices. We are
also featuring Disney’s “Ratatouille” as well. Snacks and
beverages will be provided. Sorry, no animals from the public are allowed
inside.
Admission is just $2
per person! (half will be donated to a small animal
rescue). Children 3 and under are free. For more information or if
interested in setting up a table (tables are limited and must be reserved
in advance) please contact Tara of Big Apple Rattery (www.bigapplerattery.com)."

SPECIAL RULES
FOR BRINGING YOUR RATS TO NORTHERN CALIFORNIA EVENTS
You are welcome to bring rats to
the events only if they are free of all symptoms of disease and/or
parasites, and have not been exposed to any new, strange, or ill rats
during the 3 weeks prior to the event.
This includes any new rats brought into your home.
This is to prevent rats from bringing
any disease that still might be in the incubation phase to the rat events.
This not only applies to your pet rat(s) but also to any rats that are
brought for adoption as well.
Please wash your hands before and
after handling any of the rats at the event.
Please ask the owner of the rats
for permission to hold or pet their rats.
All rats attending the rat event
should be brought in their own travel cage.
Please remember that you are bringing
your ratties to these events at your own risk. Certain rules have
been set up for you and your ratties safety. The Northern California Rat
Community will not be held responsible for any illness or injury to your
rats or your person that may occur from attending and bringing your rats to
these events. Please be responsible and considerate of others by following
the special rat rules and enjoy the event.
Thank you for your cooperation
