Hello lovelies, my name is Jae and I’m the administration coordinator for the humans and rats at rachies ratirement home.
I started off at the rescue in their second year, adopting my late heart rat Master Miguel. I fell in love with the big brioche loaf rat and the rescue, and began my work by fostering, cleaning, rehabilitating and painting custom art at @jaesthetic.arts to raise money for the rescue.
I’ve got a real soft spot for the old rats, especially old boys due to their masterful cuddling skills, and plentiful kisses. As a science student majoring in wildlife biology, I saw the rescue as an valuable opportunity to get hands on experience in animal husbandry, behavioural support and critical care. I also saw the amazing opportunity to put in the work for the underdogs of the underdogs, rehab and rehoming surrendered rats is an unusual gig after all.
I see the rescue as a vital part of the Australian rat community, and it’s given me the position to have foundational influence to an organisation I really care about.
You will see me as Admin Jae in the email account, as well as hosting the rescue tumblr, and around the rescue - I’m the tall one with boots so please say hello and ask me about my rats.
