 I have done a very similar thing:

Foo.should_receive(:find).and_raise ActiveRecord::ActiveRecordError

 and then change your rescue to handle ActiveRecord::ActiveRecordError.

 If you get to the point where you have a generic way you'd like to
 handle the exceptions in a controller, or across controllers look into
 using the controller class method rescue_from.

 I'm not 100% this is what you were asking, hopefully you were just
 looking for confirmation,
