Twinkle and Star!!
Meet the newest additions to our family. Two 4-5 week old ratties! Twinkle is the white one with gray spots and Star is the gray with the white spot on her head. They are sisters and very different. Twinkle is pretty active and curious and Star is really shy. When we get them out and are holding them Star will fall asleep in my hands and Twinkle doesn't stand still. The kids and I are having fun watching them bounce around their cage (it's 3 levels and huge! It's like a Rat Mansion.) and finding out what sorts of things they like to eat. So far they like yogurt drops, carrots, grapes, oatmeal and those Gerger fruit puffs.

Awwwww! They're SO cute! One of our favorite things about ratties was fixing their 'dinner' every night...we loved seeing what things were their faves and which ones weren't. And handle them as much as possible...best way to ensure they're always friendly! Love their names too!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your new ratties! I used to have pet rats a few years ago; they really do make good companions.
