Cecil

While browsing the internet for a new rat to give a home I found Cecil and his brother Mortimer. They weren't in the best living conditions, they were timid and scared. After a long time and patience with them I heard Cecil chirp for the first time. He even scared himself, it was like he never thought he would be so happy. That's when I knew, this was the life for me.

My little snuggle bug, I love him so much! He's a one mama rat and I wouldn't have it any other way! I've never had a rat that loves to snuggle as much as this little guy. So happy that he's a part of my life, any time I feel stressed I have a good cuddle with him :)

Ella

Picture
This is my first rat and only female rat, not because I didn't like her but because I don't think another girl rat could fill her shoes. Having Ella reminded me that life is short and love can come in the smallest of packages. Having her changed my life and I don't know what I would do if she wasn't a part of it. She was great at stealing my money but even better at stealing my heart.

My first heart rat. I hope that all animal lovers get what I got out of this little one, knowing what unconditional love feels like. He is missed but never forgotten. I'll see him again one day in all his grumpy but lovable glory.
