* The Rat Refuge – Kim Sheridan has loved and rescued rats for the majority of her life. Her first rat, Queenie, came into her life and stole her heart when Kim was five years old. Today, she is the caretaker of an enchanted little kingdom of rescued rats. They have their own sanctuary and enjoy a 100% homemade, organic, vegan diet. They often arrive at the Rat Refuge terrified and in very poor health. With lots of love and TLC, they become vibrant, long-lived, ecstatic beings who live harmoniously with one another, regardless of age, gender (they are spayed/neutered), color, or background. We humans could learn a lot from them!
* The Fish Refuge - Kim has also been involved in the rescue of many other animals, including cats, dogs, birds, and fishes. She is continually touched by the sentience of all of them, including the fishes! She is now also the caretaker of the Fish Refuge. They have their own pond and also enjoy a 100% vegan diet.
