Do you love rats? Or maybe you're interested in them and want to learn more? Ratapalooza is the event for you! Come join us for a day of fun and rats!
Our show will be held at the Wingspan Event & Conference Center in Hillboro, OR (about 25 min west of Portland) on Saturday, February 15, 2025. The event opens to the public at 10am and ends at 4pm.
Guests are welcome to enter rats into the rat show or just come and enjoy the many varieties of rats as they are being judged. Think of it like a cat show with ribbons, but for rats! We also have a pet rat show with fun categories such as kissiest or squishiest rat!
Our raffle always has fun prizes, which are kindly donated to help raise funds for the club. Try for a chance to win plushies, cages, art, and more!
Visit our craft table for kids (and adults!) and make your own custom rat ear headband! There are also coloring pages, word searches, and other fun activities.
