I'm so sorry to hear about Spot passing awayThat is the really shitty thing about owning rats, they are such wonderful animals and you can form such a close bond with them, but they don't live nearly long enough.
you are so right! Ratties are the perfect pet, but there life spans are agonizingly short.

thanks! Dutch was such a people-rat. We still joke that he should have been the ambassador for rattie/human relations. unfortunately, he died from a stroke last Spring. And, no, we don't breed them; we can barely walk into a pet store/look on a rescue website and not try to bring all of them home.Dutch is just gorgeous! I love blue coloured ratties. Do you breed them at all?

Here are some more Dutch pictures:

Dutch learns about gravity.


The blue boys (Dutch, Pedro, Dr. Teeth, and Trout) confiscate the camera.


Can you tell Dutch loved the camera? He was such a little ham.


I miss my little Dutch boy

Every time I go to a pet shop with rats I so nearly come out with a pair haha.
I haven't had ratties for over 2 years
I saw this stunning blue self girl ratty a few weeks ago and she was SO hard to resist.
lol, I so feel your pain! I wish I could win the lottery, then I'd adopt all the ratties out there; especially the one's in pet stores labeled "Feeder Rats" (I hate that damn term; I understand that snakes need to eat, but damn!)

Thanks for the compliments about my babies. I'm a proud rat-mommy!
