The Bongo Fury Rats (update :) )

[Zoundz]

Well, not posted my guys in a long time, so there's been a fair few changes I guess. Due to a virus we've lost a lot of rats lately, heartbreakingly enough, so I'm down to the lowest number I've had in a very long time indeed Still - I take comfort in the ones that are left <3

They are so pretty and cute!!!
How do you get them to sit still in front of the camera ? :$

Oh my god I adore rats! I used to have them, but then when they passed away I got a puppy and since then don't think I'd have time for rats and him. Thank you so much for posting these adorable pictures though! You should do action shots next of all their interactions and ratty adventures! I'd love to see something like that.
I'm particularly in love with the Russian silvers. I had a grey dumbo and he looked just like them but of course the different ears and a little dumpier haha. But Amber is also standing out to me as particularly beautiful! They're all super cute.

[Zoundz]

Thank you! I do do action stuff, all sorts of things There's this on my website: http://www.irishrats.co.uk/Irisstories.htm which may be of particular interest to collectors of ponies and other old toys

These are just my clean background shots for the website Will have to dig out some old action shots, or take some new ones!

Ouu ill definitely check that out today! I'm home sick and this has been super uplifting.

They are all super pretty! I love rats, I had two pet rats as a kid named Smokey and Dumbo. They are all so pretty and I hope they all live long and healthy lives.

I love how beautiful all your little rats are, and your Auntie Iris stories are awesome!! I'm really impressed at how well she worked with you/the camera on some of those shots, haha.

Out of curiosity, what does your babies living arrangements look like? I read that they have their own heated building/shed, but do they live together like a colony (family?) in a really big enclosure, a couple of medium sized enclosures, or..? I'm totally clueless, sorries.

[Jinxxy]

AWW! More rattie love on the Arena!
I am dying of cuteness overload here, seriously!!
I am very envious of your Russian silvers. They're breathtaking!
I love your photography skills too. I need to invest in more than a 50 dollar camera as ANY movement (even whisker twitches) can make my photos blurry.

Too bad you live so far away, you'd be fun to meet at a rat show

[Zoundz]

Thanks guys

Their unit is basically a big shed with a heater, and inside I have a row of shelvesfor stuff and then cages lining the walls. I don't have any photos - must rememdy that at some point! But yes, they're all in groups of 2-6 in big cages in the shed
