Welcome Kiddos! I picked up Sota and Kota almost a week ago after their previous owner became allergic. Interestingly, Sota and Kota came from the same breeder as Monte and Wyoming despite having no familial relation. I am very excited to introduce these kiddos the rest of the mischief. Please...

I might consider Steve to be one of my heart rats. He was always on my shoulder and I trusted him more than I trusted a lot of my other rats. He is the only guy I ever trusted to put on the ground outside because I knew he wouldn’t go far. So, when I got the idea to make (to eventually sell) custom ...

Welcome Monte & Wyo! Monte (beige teddy rex dumbo) and Wyo (fawn hooded teddy rex dumbo) entered my home and heart yesterday. These two brothers were born 12/5/23 and are just as sweet and snuggly as their “teddy bear” coat might imply. General Rat Update I...

Yeesh! Had such a busy holiday that I forgot to post my holiday photo shoot for some of my pups. Have a belated merry Christmas form Jerica, Gemstone, and Marquise!

The mischief was fairly uncooperative with their Christmas photo shoot, but we had a blast taking them. Introducing quaint Quiver, twinkling Thunder, Frost(y) the snow rat, virtuous Vision, and jingle-bell Jarvis. IMG=Q...

Decided to go on a little Halloween photo shoot with Jerica and Eli with my new camera. Bonus pictures from Gemstone’s first trip to my local Renaissance Festival and some ratty pics. Hope your day was as wonderful as mine. ...

Four Years Later I learned some hard lessons over my last 4 years of fish keeping. I did things I’m not proud of and suffered the consequences. Hopefully this post will help you avoid some of the same mistakes I made. A Deadly Impulse October 2019 I knew enough about Betta car...

Finally, a more light hearted post. I got to go on vacation Jerica as a service dog. We traveled to Mammoth Cave and the surrounding area for a week. From hikes in beautiful woods, adventures in caves, underground river tour, and zoos with both living and taxidermy, we had a blast. At least I had a ...

The sad truth about owning rats is that they’re gone too soon. You might see the signs of their age, but nothing can really prepare you for when they’re ready to go. But when it’s time, it’s time. Stark never recovered from the loss of his brother in April 2022. I feared the worst for him again bar...

It’s with a heavy heart that I must say goodbye to Captain Steve Rogers. He put up a brave fight, beating the odds by recovering form an ulcer. On June 23rd, I noticed a new lump forming by his previously injured eye. We returned to the vet soon after. He had lost weight, but there was nothing to do...

I picked up this adorable little lad last Wednesday from a rescue. Quiver traces his origins to someone missexing two pet store rats, which consequently had a litter. Quiver and his two brothers eventually found a brief home before being returned back to the rescue for unknown reasons. Soon after, o...
