Cuddles & Chaos Rattery

11/23/2025

Just an update. Going on 4 weeks of the bordetella rat pandemic. Iris is the only adult I've had so far get it and respond to treatment. She is back to normal now and identifies as a "problem" (she's unhappy to be babysitting).

We're still fighting it. I have 16 adults left, a handful of teenagers and my dwarf colony. Every last rat is on antibiotics. It's been an awful time. We've basically lost almost all of our favorites.

Thank you to everyone who was able to donate and/or share. It's been extremely helpful and has taken some of the burden off.

We could still use some help with our wishlist if anyone is able to:

The bestest boy ever. Father to our lines and deeply deeply missed. Gone way too soon to a devastating illness.

Since I was questioned today how we know what's killing them...

Our besties over at Maven's Mischief on TikTok did an excellent video on first aid kits for rats! Please go check out their page!

Due to unforseen life circumstances, the rattery will be moving to our sister rattery in Palmdale. We may have some availability of older holdbacks but no new babies will be arriving until our situation is settled. We are leaving the 3rd week of July.

If I haven't gotten back to you yet, I apologize. Life is crazy at the moment.

I want to thank all of our local adopters and everyone who has been a part of the Cuddles and Chaos journey. We are so sad to be leaving this area without a reputable rattery. 🥺

Hi everyone! Just wanted to let you all know we do still have some rats available from our last litters.

What's next? We have paired Morgan our tonkinese girl and Denali our Russian blue silvermane girl. Those will be our last two litters this summer. After that we won't be having any new babies until Fall possibly Winter.

Morgan's litter: I'm expecting tonks

Denali should throw a lot of Russian Blue, Black and we might get some roan.

The waitlist is empty for boys. Girl slots fill up fast so if you're interested in girls please get a hold of me asap.

I haven't had a chance to update the website yet but our waiting list is currently open. We probably won't have females available for a while but there are some males from Calypso's litter available. Our latest litters have all been boy heavy.

I just wanted to give everyone an update on the current litters. Unfortunately we are very boy heavy. I only have a couple of girls and the ones available have been reserved by a family. If anyone is interested in switching to boys on the waitlist let me know! I will have a bunch available. The colors are agouti and blue agouti. We might have a few black from Calypso's litter as well.
