In this first of a two-part episode, we are joined by Mariah Madigan from Frankie’s World, a rat rescue and sanctuary in Canada. In this episode you can learn all about what makes these often misunderstood animals so special and the special bonds that can be formed between rats and their humans. And be sure to come back for part two to learn more about the rat community, how to adopt or sponsor a rat, and to hear how Mariah’s multispecies family will celebrate Christmas together. On the video version you also get to see Paisley-Frankie on camera and meet a few of the rats.
