Rats In Alberta

[Invictus]

Unfortunately, yes... our source was a petstore. But the guy who told me, I considered to be pretty knowledgable. This was at a petstore that almost ALWAYS has rats in stock, and now all of a sudden they are not allowed to carry them??? Looks a little suspicious to me, so there must be at least some credibility to it. But, like I said... I will continue to feed my kids until I am shown an official notice as well.

Mark - I know who you're talking about with the SK rat breeder. Her prices were pretty darn good. I think I'll be doing some business with her in the future.

im not sure if it is the same pet store im thinkin about invictus, but the one i used to get my rats from all the time in calgary stopped getting rats because they said they just cant get enough of them. there orders were getting smaller and smaller, and just couldnt do it.


so they went to rabbits instead.

About the dead rat thing being illegal I would like to know who said that to you as a board member of TARAS we are the first to find these things out. We get mail every week on any new legislation and have the oppourtunity to fight it. So to answer everyone's question no dead rats are illegal in alberta

I think that would be pretty ridiculous if they were anyways.

Wow that sucks.....I heard the same here in the city pet shops and they won' t sell feeder mice as well well not live at least.

I can see someone going "ahhhh yeah i want 3 mice nice and fat, ohhh no not for food but pets".

Then coming back next week saying they all died can I buy 3 more......lol

If you want to do a large order and have it shipped email me I can hook you up with my supplier.

Cya...
