Nikki Reed has adopted a baby rat.
The 'Twilight' actress, who is dating 'The Vampire Diaries' star Ian Somerhalder, is "obsessed" with animals and has built a special guest house on her property in Los Angeles for her growing family of rescue pets.
The 26-year-old beauty told PEOPLE.com: "I'm on my way to pick up my new baby rat. I'm animal obsessed! I basically have a farm in my house."
She added: "I do feel like by buying rats from a pet store, you are saving them because if not, they would get fed to a snake or something."
The actress owns two horses, two German shepherds and four other dogs, but also regularly provides temporary shelter for foster pets.
The 'Murder of a Cat' star said: "Animals are my life. My mom and I built a guest house on my property so that my mom could help me fostering animals. I do multiple fosters a month. Sometimes I get a litter of nine puppies and put them in a nursery I created. And in the backyard, I also have an outdoor set-up that's actually enclosed so the hawks can't get to it."

Chris Brown's entourage is allegedly being linked to a stabbing in Los Angeles.
The incident took place at Supperclub in Hollywood shortly after the 'Loyal' hitmaker finished his set at a YMCMB Drake and Lil Wayne after-party last night (22.09.14), and the victim, whose name has not been released, was hospitalised but is expected to recover.
Law enforcement sources told gossip website TMZ.com that they didn't make any arrests because no one would give any information, but believe trouble follows the 25-year-old star and his friends.
One insider said: "When Brown and his people show, we know what's going to happen. It's a headache for us."
The Los Angeles Police Department privately met with nightclub owners and urged them to blacklist Chris, who has not been accused of instigating the violence, and his crew, but they reportedly plan to continue to welcome the 'Turn Up The Music' singer and his entourage with open arms, as they make a lot of money from his performances.
A source previously claimed that Chris, who spent 108 days behind bars for violating his probation when he allegedly made threats about using guns while seeking anger-management treatment in rehab earlier this year, and Drake's club appearances and performances were under observation by a group of officers from the New York Police Department - known as the 'Hip-Hop' squad - in the wake a shooting at Chris' party at the 1Oak nightclub in Los Angeles last month, in which three people, including music producer Suge Knight, were injured.

Chris Pratt and Anna Faris were "meant to be" together.
The 'Guardians of the Galaxy' star, who has been married to the 'Scary Movie' actress for five years, says their lives were "strangely similar" before they first met.
The 35-year-old actor told E! News: "We're both from the Pacific Northwest in Washington State. I grew up 20 minutes from her. I played football on her high school field."
He added: "There are many, many similarities to our lives. It's one of those things that makes you realise things are meant to be and they're working out the way they're supposed to."
The couple, who have two-year-old son Jack, also have very similar personalities, and Chris thinks it's one of the secrets to their happy marriage.
He explained: "A lot of times if you date somebody or are married to somebody that's really similar to yourself, it doesn't work, but for us it does work because we both happen to be completely in love with ourselves."
He jokingly added: "When I look into her eyes and see my own, it just makes me love her even more."

Sadie Frost's divorce from Jude Law was "incredibly stressful and destructive".
The 49-year-old star, who split from the Hollywood actor after six years of marriage in 2003, likens divorce to a "mini-personal war" in her upcoming wellbeing book, 'Nourish', but despite the pain of her separation, she admits it feels like a "million years away" now.
The actress - who starred opposite Jude in 2000 gangster movie 'Love, Honour and Obey' - writes: "[Divorce] can be incredibly stressful and destructive.
"Sometimes it becomes a mini-personal war in which no one is the winner apart from the lawyers."
When asked if that was her experience with Jude, she told The Times newspaper: "It's also a lot of my friends' experiences. My divorce feels like a million years away, but [yes], I guess that it's the experience for most people going through a divorce.
"Is there any such thing as a good divorce? Well, if people aren't supposed to be together and their relationship isn't working, then the right thing to do is get divorced and try not to make it messy."
While Sadie - who has three children, Rafferty, 17, Iris, 13, and 12-year-old Rudy with Jude - didn't enjoy the experience of separating from the actor, she has a good relationship with the 41-year-old star nowadays.
She added: "Time ... is a healer."

Kelis hates milkshakes.
The 35-year-old singer, who had a hit with her 2003 song 'Milkshake' - which she previously revealed is a metaphor for "something that makes women special" - has admitted she isn't actually a fan of the calorific beverages and never drinks them.
When asked what her favourite flavour of the tasty treats is, she replied: "Funnily, enough I don't actually drink milkshakes."
The star admits she is keen to open a restaurant chain in the near future and while the eatery is unlikely to be stocked full of milkshakes, she has a line of signature sauces, Feast, which could go well in the establishment.
Speaking before her recent performance at Harman IFA in Berlin, she added: "I would love to open a restaurant in the near future.
"My current sauce line Feast will be coming out this winter. A lot of various food related goals in the upcoming year. I'm excited to see what's to come!"
One thing Kelis has already ticked off her to do list this year was performing at Glastonbury festival in Somerset, south west England, as she took to the stage at this year's spectacle to perform a greatest hits set, and the star had a superb time at the iconic event.
She said: "Glastonbury is an incredible festival, so being able to play this year was very special."

Shia LaBeouf is to take part in a performance art installation later this week.
The 'Transformers' actor will participate in '#Metamarathon' at modern and contemporary art museum Stedelijik in Amsterdam, he revealed on twitter.
He wrote: "#METAMARATHON at the @Stedelijk Amsterdam 09.25.14.(sic)"
The museum responded to the 27-year-old actor's posting, writing: "It's happening", before giving out further details of the performance.
They said: "Shia LaBeouf will embark upon a metamarathon around the perimeter of the Stedelijk Museum. Visitors are invited to participate. Running shoes optional. Starts at 2:00 p.m."
Although Shia hasn't fully explained what the installation will entail, he has recently been pictured in neon running clothes and documenting his exercise regime on Twitter via the Nike+ app.
And at the weekend, he made a cryptic posting about the definition of the word 'run'.
He wrote: "RUN: to move swiftly on foot; to PROCESS or execute a PROGRAM or instruction; an unbroken series of PERFORMANCES (sic)"
Earlier this year, the troubled actor took part in another art installation in Los Angeles.
Days after arriving at the Berlin premiere of his film 'Nymphomaniac' with a paper bag on his head bearing the words 'I am not famous anymore', Shia held a free exhibition called #IAMSORRY in which he wore the bag and sat in silence opposite fans, reportedly frequently appearing tearful.

Bruce Jenner has splashed out $50,000 on a race car.
The 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star - whose estranged wife Kris Jenner filed for divorce yesterday (22.09.14) - is a keen racing fan and made an "impulse purchase" from NASCAR star Robby Gordon at the Sand Sports Super Show in Orange County yesterday.
According to website TMZ, the former Olympian plans to debut his new vehicle at the Griffin King of the Hammers race in Johnson Valley, California, in February with his sons Burt and Brandon.
As well as purchasing the car yesterday, Bruce was also busy filing his response to Kris's divorce petition, which he submitted just a few hours after the showbiz matriarch entered in her legal documents.
Bruce asked a judge to agree to the same terms set out by Kris, including that they have joint physical and legal custody of their youngest daughter Kylie, 17.
Like, Kris, Bruce asked for his own "jewellery and other personal effects," and "earnings and accumulations...from and after the date of separation".
According to RadarOnline.com, Bruce doesn't want to pay spousal support, which is also in line with Kris' petition, which asked the judge to bar the court from awarding spousal support.
The couple announced they had split last October, but the court documents state they separated on June 1 2013.

Leonardo DiCaprio has joined Instagram.
The 'Wolf of Wall Street' actor joined the social networking site earlier today (23.09.14) and set about filling his timeline with pictures from the United Nations General Assembly on climate in New York City.
Leonardo - who was named a United Nations Messenger of Peace last week - wrote: "This seems like the perfect setting to join Instagram and share this view from the UN General Assembly. What a great honor this is. #Climate2014 (sic)"
The 39-year-old star also posted a picture of himself looking dapper in a suit alongside UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, who appointed him UN Messenger of Peace last week.
In a caption attached to the image, he wrote: "Today, I have the privilege to speak at the United Nations #Climate2014 Summit where world leaders are expected to announce the bold steps they will take to tackle climate change. Thank you Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon. (sic)"
Just two hours after posting his first Instagram picture Leonardo had already amassed more than 12,000 followers, but he was following just four people in return.
The star described himself as an actor and environmentalist in his bio on the social networking site.
Leonardo has amassed 11.1 million Twitter followers since joining the social network in April 2010.

Clive Owen was never offered the role of James Bond.
The English actor has been heavily linked to the iconic character, especially after his impressive performance in crime thriller 'Croupier', but Owen insists the speculation has always been wide of the mark.
He told The Express newspaper: "It's easy to keep saying no to a role you're not being offered.
"Am I going to be the next Sean Connery? No, I'll just be the next Clive Owen."
Owen, 49, was linked to the part prior to Daniel Craig's casting in 'Casino Royale', with reports suggesting he made unreasonable financial demands.
He added: "If I hadn't worn that tux in Croupier, I'd still be begging for the parts on cop shows Robson Green turned down!"
In a recent interview with Britain's HELLO! magazine, Owen said he appreciates the success he's enjoyed as an actor, especially because he comes from a humble background.
He said: "I spent my childhood not having money and that was a constant burden.
"I'm fortunate now to have considerably more now than I used to, but I'll never forget where I come from because there is a huge number of people in the world who are stressed about money and I don't want to forget that I used to be one of them."

Bryan Cranston has entered into talks to appear in 'The Great Wall'. The 'Breaking Bad' star could appear in the eagerly-awaited film alongside fellow Hollywood heavyweight Matt Damon, who was linked to a part in the film earlier this week. Deadline ...

Gordon Ramsay has axed 'Kitchen Nightmares' for the sake of his stomach.
The TV chef has confessed he's given up the popular series, which sees him visit failing restaurants in a bid to improve them, because his body needs time to recover from all the questionable food he's eaten.
Speaking in a video on the Channel 4 website, he said: "I want a rest. I want my stomach to go through a 12-month period with no ulcers.
"And then I want to go to the toilet once a day, properly, as opposed to four or five times a day once I've had a bad experience in a s**thole selling frozen food that's been defrosted in the microwave for the last 17 minutes, so no, I want to get back to eating normally."
However, despite admitting that he'll be taking at least a year off from the series - which has seen him reinvent restaurants across the globe - he's confessed it could be set to return in the future.
He explained: "I still have that hunger to get those businesses back on the map and I'm still like a little Rottweiler.
"I just want to be led up the front door, let off the lead and then booted in - sniff out the crap, turn the place upside down, give the owners a great shake and then put them back on their feet."
Gordon added: "Let's not say it's going away and finishing forever. It may come back. It depends on my ulcers."
Meanwhile, the final series - 'Costa Del Nightmares' - kicks off on Channel 4 tonight (23.09.14) at 9pm.

Craig Revel Horwood says Anton du Beke has his "work cut out for him" after being paired with Judy Murray on 'Strictly Come Dancing'.
The 49-year-old star - who is a judge on the BBC One celebrity dance contest - has revealed that, from what he's seen, professional dancer Anton has a lot of work to do if he wants to be in with a chance of winning the show with tennis coach Judy.
He said: "Anton, I think, is the perfect person for Judy.
"I mean, I have literally seen 30 seconds of them dancing and, to be honest, that was enough.
"I think Anton really has his work cut out for him."
The Australian-British dancer went on to say that he's unsure as to whether Judy will be good at taking criticism, as coaches are usually the ones giving rather than receiving advice.
He added: "If she can't get used to hearing the truth about her dancing then she's going to have to rethink the entire programme."
Craig also commented on the supposed "curse of Strictly", which has claimed a number of contestants' long term relationships.
Speaking on 'Loose Women', he said: "Well it [dancing] does release a happy endorphin in the brain. I think a lot of people don't have that before Strictly and then when you start exercising, I don't know, the chemistry changes between you."
