Update: September 9th, 2008- Fluer and Jericho's litter has been moved to the available page. Reservations are now underway. Pictures have also been linked to each listing and some have additional shots for viewing on their Photobucket Album.
August 11th, 2008- Fluer gave birth to 14 or 15 rittens on the 8th. There are 14 strong babies to her brood. We may have lost one, or we may have miscounted in our haste to get them back to mom.
On a more serious note, we lost our beautiful Athme at just 10 days shy of her second birthday. She developed an upper respiratory infection that refused to respond, possibly because of the stress of a large tumor under her left arm. We hope she plays well at the bridge with her beloved sister Niobe.
August 4th, 2008- Fluer has put on a lot of weight these past couple of days and has started to round out. Sometimes these sneaky girls just balloon. By our calculations, we should be seeing babies around the 10th.
Greeting from us at Rodere Rattery. Rodere Rattery is a dream that is just recently coming true. After over a decade of owning rats as pets, I have decided that I would like to begin a responsible breeding program. With that endeavor, I hope to give even a little bit back to the animals whom I can thank for years of loving companionship and trust. In addition, I would like to breed wonderful 'rittens' that will be great companions to their adopters and cagemates. Rodere Rattery is located near Ashland, Kentucky.
We will be focusing on dumbo rats with wonderful health, temperament, and type. It is our hope to work with several unusual colors and help better establish some of the unrecognized colors here in the United States. Our main concern, however, will always be the health and temperament of the rats that are bred here at Rodere Rattery.
If you
are interested in adopting a rat or rats from Rodere Rattery, please look over our 'Adopting' page and fill out our adoption application. We may on occassion have rescue rats and retired adults available. We will do our upmost to ensure that each and every rat is treated like a member of the family, even if they are not a permanent resident.
