New Baby Rats

Scott and Emma are really looking forward to these three little babies joining our family at the end of the month:


Pixie








Poppy







Blackie
(Black Beauty)


Scott named the little black one, which will be his rat. Scott just finished reading the book "Black Beauty," and the protagonist is a black horse with a white star and white socks. This little female rat reminds him of Black Beauty.

We love rats in our family. Checkers, our last remaining rat, will be passing away shortly, so I had to find some more babies to replace her and our other rats before we have an empty cage. Scott in particular has a special fondness for rats and enjoys their company.
