Roo-Monster
3 Comments
Roo, our rasta-kitty has taken to being very needy of late. This seems to coincide with his recent hair, er, I mean fur cut. In a previous post I described how Mrs.R and myself helped Roo with his horrid mass of matted fur on his back by shaving nearly 3/4 of his back. Now, our [...]
Cleaning Day – Part II
Comments closed
Another cleaning day but not like other cleaning days. Yesterday we moved the new boys in with some of our resident rats and we thought all would be well. Sure there were a few squabbles and a bunch of screeching and some serious boxing matches throughout the night (yes, all night long) but it was [...]
You Have Got To Be Kidding
Comments closed
Those were the first words out of my mouth. I started the day pretty much the same as any other Monday. I woke up; made sure Mrs.R was waking up; went into the kitchen to get bowls out for Jake the rabbit and the cats morning meal. I then went to the bakers rack in [...]
One Hour, Forty-Five Minutes
Our Roo, or Rasta-Roo of late, after one hour and forty-five minutes is now a smooth backed cat. After some protests and a few sad meows he seems to be feeling much better for the experience. Still to this day, after almost four years now, we cannot figure out why Roo grows his fur out in dreads. [...]
Hyper’s Gone
Comments closed
It’s been quite a crazy couple of days. We have a brand new grandson, Mrs.R and the Jack Ratticus are speaking again, and our little Hyper girl moved on to the Rainbow Bridge. In all the excitement of Kaden’s arrival I did not want to leave Hyper’s passing as only a footnote to recent events. [...]
Popcorn and the Blue Crew
Comments closed
I am not much of a popcorn fan but the Blue Boys and Ratchetu are having a great time with their very own bowl. The big boys are with Mrs.R and an even bigger bowl of popcorn. Ratchetu keeps running across me with a kernel; Tanzi has learned to grab a piece and munch; Shadow [...]
iPod Touch and The Boys
Comments closed
This is a new posting idea … live with the boys. The blue boys to be exact. They are quite interested in investigating what I have in my hands and the typing noises coming from the internal speaker. We are watching Supernatural or at least I am half watching half writing this entry. The boys [...]
Rat Bites Rat!
We have been experiencing a great deal of new things with our rats lately. The biggest thing, besides the new litters, is Serena’s biting issues while she was pregnant. Our girls habitat was rearranged to allow for some privancy and security of Serena’s litter. Mrs. Rattitude and I realized from Serena’s first litter that we [...]
It’s About Time …

Life is much too busy at times … … and once again I will go into a rambling update. The boys are now housed in a double FN and in a triple FN. Frank and Jeremy have the double. Teetu, Inky, Gordon and Frank, Dash and Bruiser have the triple. We expect to add more [...]
You Have How Many Rats?
Comments closed
They are accidents … really, they truly are. Let’s start with Serena. If I haven’t mentioned before how determined she is, let me tell you now … this girl has a serious stubborn determination! We learned a little too late that we could not have both male and female habitats “open-door”. We thought we had [...]
