More babies - missing one sweet girl who was too excited to play to get a good picture 😂

Silver agoutis and martens, oh my! And they will all have points from their Siamese sire. Also I think some of these babies are Harley, though I won't be sure for a few weeks. I didn't know their grandfather, Watermelon, was a Harley carrier so this is a surprise!

Sweet babies 🥰

These girls from Aaka x Dash and Nameless Moonlight x Dash are still available! Some adopters ended up needing to push back their pickup dates, so these girls are ready to go home whenever 😊

FYI Monte Verde's blaze has morphed a bit to be more of a headspot as she's grown!

White Wolf x Mozzarella litter. These little ones are the sweetest 🥰

Babies from the Aaka x Storm Call litter!

So in love with these moon babies 🥰 Some of the Siamese are mink Siamese and some are silvermane, but it's so hard to tell at this age!

This little guy 🥰 He's an agouti velveteen dumbo and 🤞 will end up being a little dwarf ratty!

10/21/2023

This stunning baby is from the Aaka x Dash litter. I'm going for pearl dwarf rats with this line, so cross your fingers that this little one is it 🤞

10/21/2023

These little guys from Ginger's and Duchess's litter are still looking for homes! I love these black eyed Siamese 🥰

Check out the floof on Mochi! She has a velveteen coat that is sooo fluffy and soft 🥰

Sweet Moose's litter with Watermelon 🥰

Cave Bear x Barracuda's litter! I love these dark phase pearl babies, they're so beautiful 😍

Standard size ratties vs dwarf ratties! This is only my second dwarf litter after Dash randomly popped up last year, so I wanted to show you all what the growing process is like.

The little girl in this video will only get a little bigger as she gets older, but her brother is going to get even bigger than he is now!

I get lots of questions on what velveteen, double velveteen, and rex is like! This video features Ginger (a velveteen) and her 5 week old babies, one of which is standard furred, and some are double velveteen.

Basically:
Standard is straight and more satin-y

Velveteen is very fluffy and plush and seems longer than standard
Double velveteen is very short, but very soft and plush

Rex is fluffy but a bit coarser and thinner than velveteen
Double rex is very thin, and molts between having hair and no hair over the course of their life. When they do have hair, it's short and very coarse and bristley.

One of my adopters backed out and now Eleonora will be able to stay here at the rattery! Her sweet personality has been developing more and more since I picked my holdbacks, so I am thrilled to be able to keep her 🥰

09/11/2023

Ginger's sweet babies! These Siamese babies will also lose most of their color, and the double velveteens will grow in their short, dense, soft fur soon 🥰

09/10/2023

Duchess's beautiful babies! The double velveteen is going through a molt, and the Siamese babies will be mostly white with brown on their nose and rump, so these pictures aren't as representative as usual 😅

09/10/2023

Iceberg is going to his new home today! I wanted to keep this sweet boy so badly, but I can't keep everyone 😭 I'm sure he will love his new home 🥰

09/10/2023

Meet Mozzarella and Alfredo! These little guys just joined the Rattery from SoulWish Rattery , and they are so incredibly sweet 🥰

09/04/2023

I was taking photos of the Ginger x Dash litter today and got this video of the snuggly little ones all in a pile! There's velveteen and double velveteens in this litter and they are incredibly snuggly!

09/02/2023

Bigwig, Clover and Vilthuril are heading out to SoulWish Rattery today! Good luck to these babies in their new home 🥰

I have a special baby seeking a home with her best friend.

Meet Glacier! She was a sweet baby who unfortunately had an accident during free roam one day - her tail was caught between two posts and unfortunately part of the tail needed to be amputated. The amputation was not serious, only about 1/2", and I'm confident it will not cause her any mobility or balance issues going forward.

Since the accident and vet visit, Glacier has become much more skittish and fearful. I'm sure the event was very traumatic for her.

Just recently she moved in with some of the other female babies and became besties with Thuthinn. I think Thuthinn is helping her to trust again.

I think Glacier could do well with an adopter who is willing to be very patient and loving with her. Please message me if you would like to talk about the specifics of this - I will require that you have prior experience as a rat owner.
