Was an instant love at first site rat. My little soul-rat buddy. Unfortunately Lexy became jealous and killed her about a 3 weeks after I got her and merely a week after introducing her to their cage. Never again did I introduce any new rats to Lexy/Irish/Mezzy's cage. I miss her dearly =(

Kaimori (Kai)
Blue irish rex female. Approx 1 1/2 years old in the pic.
My first foster rat. Some one brought her back to my local petsmart because of allergies. She stayed in the back room by herself until I started coming around every week with my ratties, and got asked if I could take her in, rehab her (she was horribly obese) and find her a good home since they were not allowed to do such.
Once she was in better condition I took her to parade around at that Petsmart again and a young lady named Tiffany came asking about her. a week later she took her home. She lived with them for about 6 months before passing on in her sleep. She was such a sweet rat. A wonderful advocate as well.

Mandy, Star, Rose, Sam
Mandy - agouti hood female. 3 years old. -Passed from Age.
Rose - beige pale stomached female. 1.5 years old.
Sam - black hooded female. 1.5 years old.
Star - black vari-berk female with head spot. 1.5 years old - ruptured bladder.
These 4 belonged to a friend who got evicted from his house. If he couldn't find a home for them he would be forced to let them loose in a field, so he begged me to take them. I kept them for nearly a year before I decided to start breeding, then I found them appropriate homes.
Mandy was sent to live with an older lady as a companion to her older rat whose cage mate had just died a few weeks before. She is happily living out her days there.
One night before re-homing them I came in to check on every one and found Star covered in blood, looking for the source and finding a disturbing red thing covered in blood coming out of her I called my sister in a panic to find out she would not be able to be saved, with no money at the time for a vet trip, I humanely euthanized her after petting and cooing to her for 2 hours hoping she might recover.
Sam and Rose were sent to new homes with a kind lady and are happily living out their days.

Ginny
blue irish female. June 2011 - August 2011.
Ginny is Gibbs full sister.
Ginny was a special little blue rat with an over-flowing personality like I had never seen before. She loved to play peek-a-boo with me in the cage with other pups from Meeka's litter that were the same age as her. She despite my attempts to spend equal attention on all of the pups in the cage was an obvious favorite. One of Meeka's pups grew jealous of this and attacked and killed Ginny.
I was extremely heart-broken to have to wake up to this when I was about to send Thomas off to work that night. I miss her dearly.

Monster
lilac/mink hood.
Born January 2011. Died August 2012 from a broken heart.
Carries lilac/mink, black and beige/cream and PEW.
Has hoods, English, Berkshire and silvered patterns.
Has a genetically passed on 'belly spot' that a large portion of his pups/relatives carry. Usually this spot is by their genitals. But has been on their umbilical cord location and on their upper chest by the left front paw.
This is mine and my ex-boyfriends "son". I love this boy more than any thing and he is our pride and joy. He loves kisses, cuddling on your shoulder and telling you all about whats going on in his little world. He is a SPECTACULAR father and has proved that time and again with his pups. He passes on a wonderful temperament to them as well. He is OBSESSED with oatmeal. Its his favorite food ever. Loves running on his wheel, it aside from cuddling on our shoulders is his favorite activity.
Monster got his name from my ex-boyfriend Thomas. Thomas LOVES the monster energy drinks, so as his first rat Monster received his name.
Monster loved his people, and when Thomas suddenly stopped being around, Monster took a turn toward a level of depression that I could not seem to help him cope with. I euthanized him after watching his health dwindle and become worse for a month upon my return home to Pennsylvania from Louisiana for 4 1/2 months. I will forever miss my little man.

Soap is a very very friendly boy. Loves going with me places to show off, especially if children are involved. He loves his dad and is never very far from him.
