I am away between July 10th and July 24th!

Hello all!

I have been lucky enough to be invited to Portugal by a friend between July 10th and July 24th. Unfortunately this means I will not be answering emails or making any updates between these dates.

While I am gone, I am hoping that two litters will be born. My great friend will be coming over and cleaning the rattery while I am away, and giving the ratties lots of cuddles and kisses and treats for me which is amazing! If litters are born while I am gone, those of you on the messaging list will be updated upon my return.

If you have any urgent questions, please direct these towards Melissa of True North Rattery and she will get back to you as soon as possible! 

If you are looking to adopt and would like to be on the messaging list, please follow my Steps To Adoption and I will get back to you as soon as I return.

Thanks!!! Talk soon <3 Sending love to you and your ratties.

An outside rat pen!

As many of you know, I love taking my rats outdoors and I highly encourage it! Many ratties absolutely love to be outside! 
I have tried to use many different leashes, store bought fences, and other methods to keep my rats from going to far (please note that rats that are skittish or scared are likely to stay very close to you and not run away. Rats that are more confident like to explore) however they slip out of the leashes and the store bought fences aren't the greatest! 

I decided to try to make my own pen out of the spare chicken wire that I had, strapping a "roof" on with zip ties. It was an absolute disaster XD Upon seeing this, my father decided to help make me an outside area for my rats as a birthday gift and it is absolutely amazing! 

On the left, my model hahaha ! On the right, my father's model.
