Woah, So hot out here! I've moved my rats downstairs as it's much cooler down there.

Patchy-Patch

Today we added another ratty to our clan creating a threesome, Lily, Precious and Patchy-Patch.  Will Post Picture of her tomorrow.

Lily is doing the best since I’ve had her. She has made great progress and I held her for an hour without her pooing on me, (Pooing means she’s scared) I still get a couple of qeaks now and again, but she is making progress.

Lily Is getting more settled in now, though she is still scared out of her wits whenever I pick her up.

My New Rats

Yes, I know it has really bad quality, but that's the best I can do. I had been holding Precious all day so she was very comfortable in my hand at that moment, where as I had to take Lily out of here cage and she was squirming in my hand.

My Pet Rats

The day before last I got two rats from the pet store, their names are Lily and Precious. Since they are pet store rats I have no idea what colour they are but Precious is a creamy-beige, and I have no idea what to call Lily. I will post some pictures later.

I have finally reached my goal with money to spare. It comes to a grand total of 164.63. I will be getting my rats during the summer/early September. I shall post when I have more news.

Almost there,$10 to go!

That means only one more day of working then I can order the cage, and buy the supplies (including the rats) from the pet store. Even though it is best to buy rats directly from a breeder to prevent diseases and to promote happy and healthy rats that live longer, there are no rat breeders in my area and only one small pet store that sells rats. I saw it once and they have dumbo rats. They are cute. But they are younger, and they are dumbos which are cute when they are kittens but they do grow up to be a bit ugly...But cute all the same :)

New goal

I have lowered my goal since a found an appropriate cage for half the price.

So far, getting paid tonight so I’ll raise the bar when I do.

A 1/3 done 2/3 to go until I have enough money to get my rats!
I'm so excited! I can't wait to feel the rats fur! I've already chosen names! Lily and Abby, what do you think?
