Critter Camp Exotic Pet Sanctuary Rescues MorePets

Recently Critter Camp Exotic Pet Sanctuary took in 33 rats from a private rescuer who had a house fire. Tragically she had to rehome all of her animals and we took the unadoptable ones. Currently they are in two colonies, 21 boys and 12 girls.  They are not handleable and will bite. We are glad that we can give them a safe place to live out their lives.

Critter Camp has also been chosen to be The Travelin' Rat's Rescue of the Month for March!

Critter Camp also welcomes new rescues Celine & Stella, a pair of girl guinea piggies whose time had run out at a kill shelter. When they got here we realized they are pregnant! So more little babies for adoption soon! 

We also took a rabbit in the same rescue whose time had run out but he turned out to be very sweet and adoptable. He is beginning a new life at Blue Moon Sanctuary as a therapy bunny! 

Thank you to all of our supporters who make our continued success a reality! So many lives saved because of YOU!

Our newest rescues include Kringle the mousie and 3 half wild girl ratties: Holly, Berry & Ivy. All were at a high kill shelter and would have been euthanized if we didn't accept them. Kringle was surrendered on Christmas day because her owner was being institutionalized. A home was found for her hubby Kris, and we took momma Kringle. She had 10 little adorable pups and they will be for adoption soon! The helf wild ratties are not people friendly at all so they are premanent residents. Sadly it is common in the city for a pet rat to get loose in anapartment building and when found be pregnant by a wild male. The babies are often far too skittish to be kept as pets. These girls are our 4th batch of half wilds we have had live here at Critter Camp.

The builder Animal Arts has given us some of the early info on our site study and we published those documents on our building page here: http://crittercamp.weebly.com/early-plans.html  They will be providing a formal report and updated floor plans next. We currently do not have any prospects to fund the building, but Animal Arts will be helping us broaden our search as well.

We have also been interviewed by some proposed reality TV shows recently. One for example is a Shark Tank type for non profits with big ideas, another is a proposed show by the producers of Cake Boss to follow home based animal rescues. We have also joined Periscope- a live stream app which we hope builds a new following. And along those same lines we have been helping beta test a similar app called Waggle that is created by a team backed by Lorne Michaels, the producer of Saturday Night Live. Any of these could have great potential to help us at Critter Camp realize our goal of building a state of the art education rescue facility.

We will keep you posted! Thanks again for all of your support!
