Tofu and Lentil: pending
*pair of males *albinos *Approximately 4-5 months old as of June 2026 -These boys came to us as a transfer from another rescue when one of their founders passed away.

Hes a very sweet boy who is a little timid at first and needs some work on being held, but he is very friendly and a gentle boy who is so curious about people and his new place to live!

We have them split into a group of 6 and a group of 4, plus a single who doesn't play nice with others. They can be adopted in groups in their selective cages. All of these boys are slightly skittish but warming up so well. They enjoy being held, have never been aggressive, and let you pick them up and hold them.

5 boys: pending
*five dumbo boys living together *Approximately 5-9 months old as of end of August 2026 - We took in a large group of 20+ rats from a neglect situation where they were being raised as feeders. These are the five boys we took in. They are absolutely GORGEOUS boys and surprisingly all very friendly and outgoing. They run to the front of the cage for attention when we go to open the door. They are currently very food obsessed which is common with rats coming from these types of situations but that should dissipate over time. They will be adopted in pairs, trios or as a group.

Chinchillas
Tucker
**I am in foster in Greensburg PA**
*male chinchilla *black *born in early 2024 -Tucker came in as a shelter transfer when he wasn’t settling in well in the shelter environment. At first he was barky and scared but now that he’s settled in he’s really a good little guy. He will come up to you on his own, but chinchillas need to learn to trust. He enjoys head and chin scratches a lot as well as treats so we’ve been using those to make friends with him! He’s a little nervous settling in which is normal chinchilla behavior and just needs someone who can allow him to trust them (he seems like he didn’t come from the best of environments). Chinchillas can live 20 years with proper care! We do not recommend chinchillas for children as they do not make good pets for children under 12. They require a specialized habitat with multiple levels, specific food, and regular grooming care. Interested adopters can fill out our adoption application here: https://www.judgespark.org/adoption-application.html. Adoption fee is $50 for a single chin, $100 for a pair.
Colin
*male chinchilla *standard gray *born 6/20/2024 -Colin came to us with two other chinchillas (his mom and sister) that had been owner surrendered to another shelter. He was adopted out as a baby but sadly returned because his “owner went to college.” He is a very sweet boy, doesn’t mind being handled and petted, and is just a good boy who needs a family who will keep him the rest of his life!

**I have been waiting for a forever home since August of 2026**
*single male mouse *About 5-6 months old as of August 2026 -Ozzie came in as part of a humane case. They were all being bred and used for snake food :(. We took in two male and one female mice from the group. Ozzie is more jumpy than the other two but also very sweet. Once I got him and he knew he was safe he let me hold him. I think with more age and handling he’ll be an awesome little dude! Mice are awesome little pets for older kids or adults. Adoption fee is $20 for a single.
