Our Policies and Adoption Terms
Contract Policy:
Jazzed Up Rattery is one of the many ratteries who require a contract to adopt from us, while some may view this as unnecessary we do not. The contract allows us to keep adopters on file for updates on how the adopted lines are doing, this is important when it comes to tracking the health of our rats in the breeding program. The contract states that you have a general understanding on your requirements as the owner, vet care, feeding, housing etc. On the contract it also has a copy of our policies and discloses any and all information pertaining to the animal(s) adopted at the time of signing, this gives both members a very clear view on what both parties are expected to do and what information has been given.
Jazzed Up Rattery has a new addition to this policy, with each adoption and signing of the contract (Valid for adopters only 18+) a form of I.D must be shown. The I.D will be recorded on the contract along with the other general information for the adoption, we ask this to prove the name you are using is your legal name and is bound to you in Canada. No one under 18 is allowed to adoption OR sign the contract, an adult must be the valid signature on all documents to insure the validation of care and expectations.

Temperament:
Jazzed Up Rattery ratties have never had temperament issues because of how we breed. On top of great genetics they are well socialized with humans, other rats and sounds; I pride myself on the temperament and disposition of the rats I produce.

Reserve/Hold:
We do have a hold/reservation page/list, to be placed on this list you must pay a 50% non-refundable deposit on each rat you wish to hold. All reservations are permeate, you can not switch your rat. If you decide to pay in full before the adoption appointment this only fully locks your reservation, meaning you may not switch your rat period. Once the babies are born we let you know and at 3-4 weeks we ask you to pop by and pick our which baby(ies) you wish to hold. At 6 weeks we then inform you they are able to be picked up, we request that the babies do not stay with us past 7 weeks. If you do not pick up your babies before the point of 7 weeks we will place them up for adoption.

Being a Semi-closed Rattery:
Jazzed Up Rattery is not a completely "Closed Rattery". At a closed rattery, they never allow anyone into their rattery at any time, for any reason, and insist on meeting adopters at another location. This may be a concern of having strangers know where they live, which in these times can be a legitimate one, but it is usually because they are genuinely afraid of illness being brought into their rattery. When proper precautions are taken, I believe the chances of a virus being brought in are virtually nonexistent. This is just my opinion of course!
At the other end of the scale, sometimes people are concerned by Closed Ratteries simply because they may have something they don't want you to see (in fact I know some of them do!) Here at Jazzed Up Rattery, we try to walk a fine line somewhere in between a closed rattery and one that is at all times wide open to everyone everything in moderation is the best.
