Mountain View Rattery

This blog is meant to informally document all the ups and downs of my rattery, from the very beginning. It's a place for pictures, text posts, random updates, and anything else related to my rats.

Rarely seen photograph of the extremely endangered igloo turtle.

(Yes, they do have a big igloo, they just both decided to squish into the little one.)

Long time, no post.

Took pictures for an update for the breeder, Drifter is a curious noodlebutt and Snow doesn't want to leave his pillowfort.

Rattie Holiday Giveaway!!

Ok so I’ve been promising to do a giveaway for a long time now and I’m finally getting to it!  Please only like/reblog if you own pet rats since most of this stuff will be useless without them. You have until 10pm EST on 12/16/15. You can like/reblog as many times as you want. I will do international shipping :)

What you get: - 1 Medium tank top from rappsrats store (I bought this but it was too big so I had to exchange it and they let me keep the original). If you don’t win the giveaway and would like to get one, their store is here :) - 2 rat sized hammocks made by me - A few lightly used rat toys. We’re moving and I’m packing everything up and trying to downsize. You get a wood platform, a millet feeder that can be used for veggies/fruits/etc, and a rat sized tire I’ll let you know after 10pm when I’ve picked a winner and I’ll contact you to get your shipping info so your ask must be turned on. Have fun!

I feel like I should replace this bed with a bigger one but they sleep in it all the time and haven't shredded it like everything else in their cage, so that must mean they like it right?

Ah how time changes things.  Including my ability to take non-blurry pictures…little wiggleworms.

Snow looks like he's waiting for you to tell him all your problems.

Friday nights at my apartment are really exciting.

I don't hang out with frat boys, I hang out with my flat boys!

(Shaddup I think I'm hilarious)

"Go away mom, I'm sleeping!"

I don't know why he was determined to sleep on the lava ledge.  I thought maybe he didn't realize I'd put their hammock back in and put him in it but nope, five minutes later he's snoozing on the lava ledge again.

I have such handsome boys!

"Yes, do you need something?"

[mountainviewrattery]

IT WORKED! I HAVE VISUAL PROOF!

Bath time is a traumatizing time.

Snow is a little blur

Drifterbee was up all night doing Important Rat Things and then spend the entire day doing his best dead rat impression on the platform.  But then of course he woke up whenever I came near and wouldn't let me get a picture of him.
