The Re-homing Animal Telephone Service (RATS) began as a registered charity in 1984 when a small group of dedicated animal lovers in the Bedford area got together and began a service that put those who needed to re-home an animal in touch with those who wished to adopt via the telephone hence the name Rehoming Animal Telephone Service. From that small beginning we are proud to say that the charity has grown into one of the counties leading animal rescue charities.
