RIP GOT Asta 🥺💔 3/13/23-4/20/25

I'd like to get back into posting when ratties pass. I haven't for a while for personal reasons and have just mourned and celebrated their lives privately.

My sweet old man Asta passed this Easter Sunday. He was such a docile and squishy boy! Ever since he was little, he always just flopped in my hands when I scooped him up. He loved to explore and snuggle during free roam time, and was always excited for snacks and food 💚

He sired four litters for me, one of which being my current litter with GOT Fizz. I'm so happy to have gotten one last litter and hope to produce more affectionate and sweet babies like him in the future generations 🥰

You will be missed, Asta!

Enjoy some quick pictures of the current babies I took when I returned from my trip last night! 🥰 I missed these cute faces sooo much!

Official, individual pictures will be taken and posted later this week 💚

GOT Fizz x GOT Asta Offspring!

**Not an Availability Post**
**Minimal to No Public Availability**

These little ones were also born 3/18. Miss Fizz had 7 babies with 4 males and 3 females. This is her first litter, and she's been doing great! No maternal aggression, which I was a bit nervous about since this is a project line. Due to it being a project line. There likely won't be any public availability. If there is, it'll be very minimal and likely will only ever be the females, at least until I'm able to get the line more solid.

All males will be retained. The middle female may be available as I suspect she's dwarf. While I do want dwarf for this line, I do not want to breed dwarf females.

GOT Toga x GOT Arc Offspring!

**Not an Availability Post**

These little ones were born 3/18, so they're almost a week old. Toga and Arc are both first time parents. She had 8 little ones with 6 males and 2 females. Toga has been doing a wonderful job with me being around her and the little ones. No signs of maternal aggression at all!

Sadly, one of her boys did have to cross the rainbow bridge. I think mamma may have over groomed him, but he had a head injury that wasn't something he could safely heal from 🥺💔 The other babies are all very healthy and plump though!

I plan on keeping one male and one female from this litter. I'm leaning toward Russian blue for both of my keepers, but we'll see which are the best candidates as they age!

GOT Cinnamon Roll x GOT Bagel Offspring!

**Not an Availability Post**

These little cuties have such a wide variety of colors! As perfect as they all are, I likely won't end up keeping any from this group as planned. I was hoping for a standard coated agouti and cinnamon boy, but the only agouti and cinnamon are Rexes. I'll be pairing three more females from this line for my next round of litters, so I imagine (hope) I'll get the boys I need! 🥰 I may keep the female, but might also just wait for a fawn Rex girl from my summer litters. Time will tell!

• Male 4: Unmarked Agouti with standard ears and a Rex coat
• Male 5: Agouti Berkshire with dumbo ears and a Rex coat
• Male 6: Black variegated with a head spot, standard ears, and a standard coat
• Male 7: Cinnamon Berkshire with standard ears and a Rex coat
• Male 8: Russian cinnamon self with standard ears and a standard coat
• Male 9: Russian cinnamon Berkshire with dumbo ears and a Rex coat
• Male 10: Amber self with standard ears and a standard coat
• Male 11: Amber self with standard ears and a standard coat
• Male 12: Amber variegated with a head spot, standard ears, and a standard coat

• Female 3: Fawn Berkshire with standard ears and a Rex coat

GOT Mt. Lady x GOT Magna Offspring!

**Not an Availability Post**

I love how stocky and full this line always looks! They have such great conformation, which makes for extra cute ratties 😍

Super excited to pair my keepers later this year, likely in the fall!

My keeper boy is a bit more shy than I prefer, but he's mostly just being kept as a back-up for the line. Everyone else is very outgoing! 💚

• Male 1: Black patched with standard ears and a standard coat
• Male 2: Black variegated down-under (DU) with a head spot, standard ears, and a standard coat
• Male 3: Russian blue Berkshire DU with a recessive wedge blaze, standard ears, and a standard coat

• Female 1: Mink variegated with standard ears and a standard coat
• Female 2: Russian blue variegated with a head spot, standard ears, and a standard coat

Mix and match retired ladies 👀 for new 🏡s!

Can go as two separate pairs, or all stay together!

Details about personalities below. Feel free to message for an application! 💚

Sol was born 12/5/23. Sol also had just one litter for me, and was another wonderful mamma. She is very energetic, loves to check out new things, and will give frequent kisses! During free roam time, she's usually running all about, wanting to check everything out.

Dione was born 7/21/23. She had one litter for me and was a fantastic mamma! She gives kisses and is more laid back but does love to climb and explore! When opening the cage, I often have to watch her closely since she likes to try to climb up and around to help herself to free roaming time 😆 Dione is easy to handle and is treat motivated.

Spruce was born 9/15/23. She had one litter for me as well, and was such a sweet mamma. She has grown more reserved as she's aged, but she is still a sweetie and gives kisses on occasion. During free roam time, she will explore for a bit then usually find a cozy spot to nap in. She does have balding patches on her rump, which is a normal thing some Rexes go through. She does well with being handled, but it isn't her favorite thing anymore. She's grown to be more of an independent lady with age.

Sarcoline was born 11/13/23. She was never bred here and has just stayed on as a pet only lady. I'm working to condense my numbers though, so I'd love for her to have a spoiled pet home who can give more attention and snuggles 💚 Sarcoline is such a laid back and easy to handle lady. She just melts in my hands when I hold her! She occasionally gives kisses, and enjoys exploring and snuggling during free roam time.

Flan and Pazu are 👀 for a new 🏡!

Details on personalities below. Feel free to message me for an application! 💚

These boys have never been bred. Flan was born 12/11/23, so he is a little over 1 year old. I had planned to breed him, but he has a bit of genetic obesity 😅 He's not too too big, but I do have to monitor his treats and food a bit more. He's very laid back and super tolerant! Sometimes, he's not a fan of being picked up, but will just flop against you like "fine fine, I'll cuddle here" haha! I often pick him up to squish and smooch his rolls 🤭

Pazu was born 3/9/24, so he's just about to celebrate his first birthday! He was brought back to me last year because a member of his family ended up being extremely allergic to the rats. The boy he was returned with (Zuko), I decided to keep here at the rattery to pair in the future, but Pazu isn't needed for my program. He's a very sweet and easy to handle boy. He gives frequent kisses and enjoys exploring. He is also very treat and food motivated! Both of these boys have done well being introduced with others too. Both have had clean bills of health, other than Flan being a bit chunky.

GOT Cinnamon Roll x GOT Bagel Offspring!

**Not an Availability Post**

We'll have no shortage of males this round of ratties 🤣 I've not had odds like this before that I can remember. Sweet Cinnamon Roll had 10 babies, with 9 males and just 1 female. I triple checked sexes to be sure, and sure enough, just one little lady, haha! Mamma has been absolutely wonderful with me around her babies. When I was messing with her and them in the nest, she just kept grooming and kissing my fingers 🥰 She's an ideal mamma!

I did forget to get updated pictures of their parents, so I will be doing that today after work and adding them to the post.

We have lots of red and pink eyes, so I'm expecting most of these babies to be fawn, amber, and cinnamon. The dark eyed babies will be either agouti, black, or Russian blue agouti.

I'm hoping to get an agouti male from the dark eye boys. This will sadly be Bagel's last litter. I had hoped to continue breeding him, but these last two weeks he's had some on and off congestion. I'm guessing due to the up and down weather we've been having, but any ratties that have sensitivities like that get retired. He may be posted along with some of my other boys looking for retirement homes, but I've not fully decided yet.

GOT Mt. Lady x GOT Magna Offspring!

**Not an Availability Post**

These little cuties are just perfection! 😍 They're oh so sweet and just too darn cute! They've all been so easy to handle, very friendly and outgoing 💚

I do wish we could have had a bit bigger of a litter so I could share the love, but the two boys not staying will be going with a good friend and long time adopter. Hopefully, I'll have more from this line in the fall!

I didn't realize I hadn't taken a picture of female 1's backside, so she is missing a picture panel. She's got very light variegated markings on her back though 💚

• Male 1: Black patched with standard ears and a standard coat
• Male 2: Black variegated down-under (DU) with a head spot, standard ears, and a standard coat
• Male 3: Russian blue Berkshire DU with a recessive wedge blaze, standard ears, and a standard coat

• Female 1: Mink variegated with standard ears and a standard coat
• Female 2: Russian blue variegated with a head spot, standard ears, and a standard coat
