Welcome To The Travelin' Rat!
Our mission is to help animal rescues, especially those that take in rats, wherever we can, in whatever way we can. We generally do this through our fundraising efforts, but we also help rescues by sitting with them at events, helping with transports, and spreading the word when rescues need help.

***Happening RIGHT now!***
US 501(c)(3) and non-501(c)(3):
Barnes & Noble
Sign-ups for gift-wrapping may start as early as July of each year, though contracts go out during September (there may still be available spots or waitlists after September). Make sure to call a few stores in your area as rules and availability may differ. During the winter holidays, the stores allow groups to come in and gift-wrap in exchange for being able to collect donations. The store provides everything to wrap, you provide the manpower. Rules vary from store-to-store, so please contact your store directly (most have 6 hour shifts and require 2 people at the table at all times). Tip: you may want to avoid stores in college or business areas as you are looking for places where people are buying gifts, especially closer to Christmas- when the last thing someone wants to do is go home and wrap!

It is time to submit your nominations for the 2018 Rescue Heroes Contest!
Every rescuer is a hero. No question about that...and there are heroes working across the country every single day and night.September 15 through October 8 is your time to tell us about someone you know who has had an impact on the rescue world.The person or organization you nominate may have identified a logistical problem, and solved it creatively. Or maybe your nominee stepped up in an emergency and pulled off a bit of a miracle. Maybe your nominee did something that wasn't directly hands on with the animals, but stepped in to reach the community with a new kind of campaign that reached more people, or found new business partners.

We are maintaining our website and social media so that we can continue to help rescues. However, we have removed ourselves from any fundraisers that we were involved in and can no longer take in donations.
You can find out how to help our current Rescue of the Month on our Rescue of the Month page. We try to keep up with events, like fundraisers for rescues and sweepstakes for you to enter, on our Current Promotions page. Please also keep an eye out on our website and social media for information about any multi-rescue events that are happening.
For ways to help rescues directly and rescues that are involved in each fundraiser, please check out our Ways to Help Us Help Rescues page.
Thank you for all of your support of us throughout the years. We're thrilled to have helped the rescues as much as we have in the past, and look forward to continuing to do so!
