Adopt Spot and Stripe

Unknown · Young · 1 year

Meet Spot and Stripe, two lovely 1-year-old male rats looking for a fresh start together. These bonded boys are full of personality and absolutely love to play. Sadly, they were relinquished due to a relationship break up, through no fault of their own. Despite the changes in their lives, they remain friendly, active boys who are ready to settle into a stable and loving forever home. Spot and Stripe share a close bond, so they will need to be adopted together. They would thrive in a home that can give them plenty of enrichment, attention, and space to play and climb. If you think you could offer these sweet boys the happy future they deserve, please get in touch. Rats need an enclosure that is at least 90cm by 60cm with a height of at least 120cm

About Spot and Stripe

What life with Spot and Stripe looks like

Spot and Stripe is a young adult animal waiting at Thornberry Animal Sanctuary in United Kingdom.

Every animal has their own temperament and history. The shelter knows Spot and Stripe far better than any listing can convey — ask about daily routine, ideal household, and what kind of adopter they're hoping for.

🇬🇧Adopting from United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.

Frequently asked

Adopting Spot and Stripe, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Spot and Stripe?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Thornberry Animal Sanctuary handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Spot and Stripe on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Spot and Stripe if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Thornberry Animal Sanctuary will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Spot and Stripe already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most animals on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Spot and Stripe isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Thornberry Animal Sanctuary early rather than rehoming privately; they know Spot and Stripe and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (the shelter's own language). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
