Perches and perch covers are now back in stock, along with a new batch of most other hammock styles. Please be aware that any orders placed between the 26th of April and the 3rd of May will be posted afterwards, though you'll still be able to place orders. Anything ordered before then will be posted by the morning of the 26th. 🥰

I'm finally working on more leaf hammocks! I'll be bringing them to the Midlands Rat Club show, but any that are left after that will be available on the website 🥰

🥳NEW HAMMOCK UPLOAD! 🥳

Lots of new hammocks are on the website now along with a new batch of hammock perches! Get your orders in quick as they do tend to sell quicker than my poor husband can make them! 🥰 Thank you all for your kind support over all these years, it's a joy to sell hammocks so I've got an excuse to sew more!

Website link in comments as always.

There's something very satisfying about my nails matching this hammock! I've got a big batch of hammocks and perches to upload tomorrow, so keep your eyes peeled! 🐀

🐀 Another new hammock upload! 🥰
(shop link in comments as always!)

I've uploaded a big batch of new hammocks! Some of everything but an extra big lot of triples, doubles and double perch covers as I was running low on those. It's been a stressful period at work (when isn't it?!) and sewing after work has been the perfect stress relief. I'm already eyeing up more fabric for the next batch!

Thank you all so much for your continued support after over 7 years of Pepper Roo's! 🤩 It makes me so happy to think of how many little ones have enjoyed cosying up in my hammocks. ❤️

Another big hammock upload! 🥰

My husband has also kindly made a huge batch of hammock perches, so if you'd been waiting for them to come back into stock now is the time to grab them!
I'll be popping to the post office this afternoon so any orders placed by 2pm will be shipped today. 🥳

Another new hammock batch has been added to the website 🥳 I've restocked triples and double perch covers - both had totally sold out! I've added some other items too. Website link in comments as always.

Perch sets (the wooden bits) will be back in stock in the next week or two - my husband makes these for me and he's not quite off work for Christmas yet!

🌟 I've finished my day job until after Christmas so I've got a big pile of sewing ready for quiet evenings. Sewing is really relaxing for me (my full time job is extremely stressful) and it means a lot that kind people buy my products so I have an excuse to make more!

🎄 I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and get some well earned rest if possible. The rats are very excited for their Christmas Dinner!

Baby Wildsong is popping in to say 'PEPPER ROOS IS 7 TODAY!' 🥰🥳🎂

I started Pepper Roos to help pay for vet bills all those years ago. I remember being sure nobody would buy anything! Here we are 7 years later. ❤️ Thank you all for your support over the years. I am celebrating with a trip to the post office and then working hard on the last lot of hammocks ready for the MRC show on Saturday. 😁

I'll be at the MRC show next weekend with my stall and some Kinra Rats, it's going to be a great day as always. If you want to place an order to collect please use the code MRCXMASCOLLECT. I'll also have some other items with me at the show so please come check out the stall and say hello. I will also have baby rats to snuggle!

🌟 New hammock upload 🌟
(Link in comments as always)
Mumblebee here is ready to announce a new upload of hammocks! She's been hard at work posing for this new photo to demonstrate my offcut ropes. They're made with fabric offcuts to avoid waste so are priced accordingly and they're great for helping you hang toys across a wide cage like Mumble's.

I love taking photos to show my items in use. The double decker photo has Robi in who is long gone and the flat hammock photo shows Otto who left me nearly two years ago. Its so lovely to see old friends every time I upload new items. 🥰

30/10/2023

Thank you everyone for your orders yesterday and this morning! 🥰 I'm going to get them packed up tonight and posted tomorrow. How cute is this photo of baby Humbug? She's all grown up now. ❤️

I've also ordered some more fabric and I'm really excited for it to arrive so I can get sewing!

Hard at work on some new hammocks. I missed sewing! The online shop will be back open once I have enough hammocks made up so that you've all got plenty of choice! ❤️ 🐀

13/01/2023

Thank you everyone for your lovely response to our grand reopening! I've added quite a lot more premade hammocks to the online shop today and I'll be at the post office tomorrow. 😁

Lovely, gentle Robi is booked in for a mammary lump removal and spay, so everything helps top up the vet fund. I still donate to rescues as much as I can, but sadly I can't be 100% not-for-profit in this economic climate - I hope you all understand.

Thank you everyone for your very kind orders. ❤️ I'm getting through another sewing pile full of premade hammocks, focusing on houses, double perch covers and triples. There are some other hammocks in the pile too though 😊

I hope everyone is well - what's new for you? We just welcomed an elderly rescue boy named Raymond. He's settling in really well and seems very glad to have rat company again after losing his brother ❤️

We're back! 😁 Roland here is demonstrating some of the hammock perch covers now in stock on my website. We've got plenty of other hammocks and toys too! Roland is a bit better behaved than my non-toy rats and some of you may recognise him as he models for my stall at rat shows! 🐀

Moving forward I'll usually be posting parcels on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays - although given the ongoing Royal Mail strikes I will definitely appreciate patience if/when this affects how long your order takes once it leaves me.

It feels so good to be back and I've had such a great time sewing over Christmas! I've made it through a couple of audiobooks and I'm always keen for any recommendations. 😁

I'll be at the Bradford Champs in a couple of weeks, I won't have a stall but I'll be there picking up some newbies. If you're going do come and say hi!

Pepper Roos will reopen in early January 😁 Meanwhile I'm hard at work sewing on my days off work so there's plenty of hammocks to choose from when we reopen! Today I'm focusing on hammock perch covers. Merry Christmas everyone.🎄

30/09/2022

Please be aware we're taking a short break. All orders have been shipped, and the website is closed to new orders for the time being. I'll let you know once we reopen ☺️

The rescue pigs are finally getting brave enough to try the run attached to their shed! They're still shy so I revamped this secondhand 5ft hutch to act as a hide. The roof has also been waterproofed since my last 'PigTure' 😊
I'd like to get a run camera now they're using it more, hopefully soon 🤞 I love watching them on the shed cam.

I wanted to introduce my new family members! This new cottage in the garden is home to a family of rescue guinea pigs. We have mum Hazel, her babies Yarrow and Lavender, as well as auntie Willow. We also have 3 pigs from Burrowed Hearts Animal Rescue - sisters Nettle and Dandelion, and their neutered boy cousin Bramble. The pigs are getting along really well and it's a joy to see them running around happily. ❤️ We also have two baby boars at present, but they can't stay as unfortunately it's only one neutered boy to a group with guineas :(

I'm going to sit down on Wednesday and update the website with the new changes now Pepper Roo's is not-for-profit. There are lots of pet rodents and rabbits out there who need our help.

This lovely home is from Happy Habitats Home and Garden, its the 10x6 home with a bunch of alterations I requested (stable door, mesh door behind, extra window etc)

10/07/2022

🥰🤩 Woo, another big upload. Lots of willow toys added today, alongside the usual upload of hammocks. 😁

We are currently looking after two guinea pigs, one of whom is heavily pregnant. Fortunately we were in time to spay the second pig, but one lot of piggy babies is going to be a lot of work and a spay isn't cheap! Hazel and Willow appreciate any orders, as at the moment Pepper Roo's income is going on funding their permanent Piggy Palace (6ft x 10ft shed with run, filled with cosy beds, wooden houses and play tunnels). I really want to give these girls the best life now they've finally been rescued after being used for profit breeding for years. 🙏

Hammock perches (the wooden parts) will be up for sale again as soon as possible - I've recently taken on a second job working for a charity, so I am not currently the most organised with stock levels! I'm aware I'm low and more will be made very soon. ☺️

Another hammock upload, just in time for payday! 😁
Hope you all enjoy, there's some really cute fabrics here which were lovely to work with. I need some of that flamingo print for my own rats too!

More products added including those pictured, and the 20% off code (PIGS20) is still valid until tomorrow. 🥰

I'm now going to spend the afternoon cutting out a new batch of hammocks as I've emptied my sewing pile!

(valid until Friday 24th)

We're excited to be welcoming a trio of rescue guinea pigs soon, and I'm wanting to spoil them! All money raised from this sale will go towards some custom changes to their specially-made home, and towards getting the pigs those things they don't actually need but would love (like extra fancy wooden houses, runaround tubes etc). They're finally coming to their forever home so I want to make them feel like the luckiest guineas in the world.

I've been having some quiet time sewing recently and it's been lovely - I'm now juggling Pepper Roo's with part-time work for a charity and it's been tiring but so rewarding. I'm lucky enough to have two jobs that I love. 🥰

I'll be packing up existing orders this evening, so any orders placed by 8:30pm today (21st) will be sent first thing tomorrow. 😁
