Long time, no see!
If you’ve been trying to reach me and haven’t heard back, please don’t hesitate to message again. I’ll get back to you ASAP ❤️
Life & Rattery Updates:
I've been studying hard for my RBT certification and will be doing my competency assessment on Friday; wish me luck! ❤️
Besides that, I’ve been taking a short break from the chaos of Facebook. There’s been so much bad news lately, and I want my page to stay a lighthearted, little corner filled with rat cuteness for you all ❤️
I can’t thank you enough for the love, support, and kind words you’ve shared on my page recently. Being transparent about how I run my rattery means the world to me. The health and happiness of my rats will ALWAYS come first ❤️
At this time, if you are looking for baby rats and have not reached out until now, I will most likely not have any available until 2026!!! My waiting list is overflowing and I am just not able to produce litters/litters that are able to be rehomed at this point.
I’ll be reviewing it soon to confirm who’s still interested or may have already found their perfect companions. If we’ve spoken in the past few months, your timeframe should remain the same.
I do have a handful of wonderful males (4 months–1.5 years) available at a discounted adoption fee. They’ll need to go in pairs or bonded groups; please message me if you’re interested!
One regret I’ve had this year is taking on too many new lines. Breeding responsibly is incredibly challenging work, especially when some lines aren’t in the condition you were led to believe. To anyone adopting, whether as a breeder or a pet owner, please dig deep into the health and temperament of the rats you're receiving. No rat is perfect, and no line is without its challenges, but honest communication helps us improve lines! I’m so grateful to those of you who have been upfront and transparent; you know who you are ❤️
I’ll admit, I’ve been a bit of a pushover this year and parted with many of my holdbacks to help others. While it’s been wonderful to provide loving rats to so many people, it’s left my breeding program stretched thin; plenty of wonderful males ready to pair, but very few suitable females: either too young, pet only, already bred recently, or do not meet my standards to be bred (new lines). To add to this, I have been adopting out a lot of discounted rats that have not met my standards, BUT are still considered pet quality. As a breeder, I want nothing more than to guarantee everyone with rats that are confident/sweet/playful and I haven't been able to with the demand and the quality of the other lines I've been trying to fix.
As I've said plenty of times before, PLEASE reach out to me if you ever received a rat from me that you do not deem "pet quality" and I will happily do whatever I can.
Moving forward, I’m focusing solely on my harley and dwarf lines and won’t be starting any new projects for a while. Once things settle, I’ll share more detailed breeding plans for 2026.
Kira x Enzo’s litter is thriving! Everyone is healthy, and even the two girls who had skin issues are doing great. The standard black girl already has a home lined up with one of my dwarf girls, and the harley, Flaky, will be staying with me as a pet-only rat. Their skin is looking perfectly normal now.
I’ll likely be a bit quiet for another week or two, but I’m here if you need me. Thank you all for your patience and support❤️
Little Flaky and her lovely cagemates!
