Over 450 rats rescued from a filthy Long Island home are being rehomed after suffering abuse and neglect.
Over 450 pet rats are being rehomed after being found in a filthy, condemned home in Rocky Point, Long Island, where they lived in overcrowded, unsanitary conditions.
Rescued by volunteers from the Strong Island Animal Rescue League, many rats suffered from mites, eye infections, and injuries.
About 200 have already been placed in temporary or permanent homes, with others being transported to rescue groups in neighboring states.
The homeowner, charged with animal cruelty and endangering a child, allegedly allowed the situation to persist for years, though the rapid reproduction of the rats—females can birth up to a dozen pups every 20 days—likely contributed to the scale.
Volunteers emphasize that rats are clean, social animals capable of strong human bonds and encourage adoption.
