Our Rats

FEMALES

Name: House of Kahn Taffy
Colour: Mink Hood (Fluffy) (?)
Date of Birth: /20

Taffy is s busy little thing who sometimes seems to be everywhere at once. She has none of the typical fluffy dopy-ness and is quick to figure out new things and is super zoomy!

Name: Scruffians Inky
Colour: Black Vairberk
Date of Birth: /20

Inky is Icey’s much more assertive sister. She takes after her mum Beetle – she’s full of energy and loves to dig, swim, and drag things around.

Name: House of Kahn Ghost
Colour: Mink Berkshire
Date of Birth: 17/08/20

Ghost is our resident shark and the reason I can’t go into the rat room with jandles on unless I want my toes getting attacked! She’s definitely not a breeding girl and will live out her days here, with me watching her out of the corner of my eye every time we’re in the same room.

Name: White Rose Rattery Apple
Colour: Cinnimon Hood (fluffy)
Date of Birth: 21/11/20

Apache is a chunky, fun, fluff-ball who loves to dig and climb. She’s had a litter of the sweetest little fluff balls and was an amazing relaxed mother who passed on her perfect temperament to her kids.

Name: White Rose Rattery Apache
Colour: Cinnimon Self (fluffy)
Date of Birth: 21/11/20

Apache is my dig box gremlin, she LOVES tunnels and would probably live underground if she could get food delivered and didn’t have to come out for scratches.

Name: Scruffians Jelly
Colour: Black Splitcap
Date of Birth: 25/08/20

Jelly is a very busy little bee, always zooming around, collecting (and stealing) snacks, and being a ball of mischief. She’s too crazy to be a viable breeding girl, but is fun to have around!

Name: Scruffians Juniper
Colour: Black Variberk
Date of Birth: 25/08/20

Juniper is the opposite of her sister Jelly, she’s sweet, gentle, calm and snuggly. She gets on well with all her rattie friends but likes people best of all and is always up for am ear scratch and a nap in a sleeve.

Name: Scruffians Lyra
Colour: Black Eyed White
Date of Birth: 02/11/20

Lyra is a precious little black eyed white lady – a super rare colour in NZ. Shes a confident risk taker and loves to climb right up to the top of the rat room and look down on her domain. She’s sweet and friendly with people and will do nearly anything for a treat. 

Name: Scruffians Nemo
Colour: Black Variberk
Date of Birth: 02/01/21

Nemo is still growing into herself and can be a little bit shy sometimes. One on one she’s lovely, but she tends to get a bit overwhelmed with the activity of all the girls and wont push to the front for attention very often.

Name: Scruffians Otterly
Colour: Dove Self
Date of Birth: 12/02/21

Otterly is my social star – she helps look after babies, is totally trustworthy with new rats, and is calm and gentle with people. She’s a great rat ambassador and has a model girl-rat personaily.

Name: Scruffians Onyx
Colour: Black Irish
Date of Birth: 12/02/21

Onyx is Otterly’s slightly more wild little sister, shes zoomy and playful and fun – but definitely not for the faint hearted! She’s a great escape artist and is the kind of girl who HAS to explore every new thing right away.

Name: Scruffians Leia
Colour: Pink Eyed White
Date of Birth: 12/02/21

Even though Leia is one of my younger girls, she’s an old soul. She prefers to hang with the more mature, sensible girls than the silly kids her own age and has a slow, gentle personality.

Name: A Rat’s Tail Pecan
Colour: Black berkshire
Date of Birth: //20

Peacan was the pick of the litter as a little kid but grew up to be a VERY opinionated to the point she’ll (gently) bite if I push her away from the door of the rat room so she wont be having babies but she’ll stay here and glare at me when I clean up her stashes.

Name: Scruffians River
Colour: Fawn berksire with blaze
Date of Birth: 23/05/21

River is my first blazed girl! She was a total surprise – her mum is Juice and dad is Orion so she doens’t have very heavily marked parents. She’s a sensible slightly shy little lady who never caused any fuss. 

PHOTO COMING SOON
Name: Scruffians Silver
Colour: Dove berkshire (fluffy)
Date of Birth: 23/05/21

Silver is quite clever (for a fluffy line girl!) and is great at hiding snacks where her friends wont find them. She has an extra long and lovely coat.

PHOTO COMING SOON
Name: Scruffians Scout
Colour: Cinnimon berkshire (fluffy)
Date of Birth: 23/05/21

Scout is Silver’s simpler sister. She is a typical fluff in that she loves nothing more than snuggling with her freinds and a stash of snacks in a warm bed.

Name: Scruffians Tiptoe
Colour: Black splitcap
Date of Birth: //21

Tiptoe is a sassy girl – always on the move and a bit of a bossy boots with her friends. She likes people, but more on her own terms. She’ll climb up my leg to say hi but if is scoop her when she’s not expecting it she gets offended.

PHOTO COMING SOON
Name: Scruffians Twinkle
Colour: Black Eyed White
Date of Birth: //21

Twinkle is a fun loving girl, but isn’t quite as zoomy as her sister Tiptoe. She’s big and stron for a BEW (a colour that has only recently poped up in NZ that still has a few health problems we’re trying to iron out.

Name: Scruffians Leia

Even though Leia is one of my younger girls, she’s an old soul. She prefers to hang with the more mature, sensible girls than the silly kids her own age and has a slow, gentle personality.

Name: Scruffians Uno
Colour: Agouti (slightly) variberk
Date of Birth: //21

Uno is a bit of a wallflower, she kind of fades into the background and I sometimes forget what cool genetics she carries with Lyra as her mum and my sweet boy Dio as her dad. She’s very sweet when I make time to have one on one time with her.

MALE

Name: Scruffians Erebus
Colour: Fawn hood (fluffy)
Date of Birth: 14/04/20

Erebus came from a family of 3 boys and has always been a bit of a chunklett. He loves nothing more than eating and snoozing with his little half brothers Forest and Fish.

Name: Scruffians Forest
Colour: Fawn berkshire (fluffy)
Date of Birth: 15/04/20

Forest is a playful, bouncy little man who popcorns all over the place and loves to hand wrestle. He tucks his feet beautifully when you pick him up and is a sweetheart with his cage mates.

Name: Scruffians Fish
Colour: Fawn berkshire (fluffy, teeny headspot)
Date of Birth: 15/04/20

Fish is my secret favourite of the 3 brothers. He’s a squish, becomes a jelly noodle when you pick him up, and zooms to the cage door whenever you come near. He’s extra soft (even for a fluffy) and so handsome.

 
Name: House of Kahn Squid
Colour: Mink Variberk
Date of Birth: //20

Squidy is the result of a collaboration between Scruffians and HOK – he’s one of Dee’s sons and is LOVELY. He’s my go-to boy when I want to introduce rats to kids because he’s such a squish. He can be a bit physical with his cage mates sometimes but it’s all in fun and he loves meeting new rats.

 
Name: Scruffians R2D2
Colour: Black Variberk
Date of Birth: 12/02/21

R2 is a relaxed little boy like his dad Dee. He likes snoozing on top of his fluffy uncles and carrying food around until he can find the perfect spot to eat it. He has such beautiful markings and a nice head shape.

Name: Scruffians Sherlock
Colour: Dove berkshire (fluffy)
Date of Birth: //21

one_half padding=”0 10px 0 0″]Name: White Rose Rattery Rustboro (Zero)
Colour: Black splitcap
Date of Birth: //21

I didn’t actually mean to have Zero but I know quite a few of the markings line breeders will need a splitcap boy when he’s old enough to pair he will be perfect (assuming he stays nice and healthy) so someone had to keep him. His dad is a scruffians boy and I just love that he has his great great granny’s bug eyes and shocked expression, not many of my lot inherited that and it’s just so funny and cute ❤. [/one_half]

one_half padding=”0 10px 0 0″]Name: Scruffians Flick
Colour: Mink splitcap
Date of Birth: //21

Flick is a mink splitcap – a marking that’s popping up more and more often in markings line litters which is cool. He’s a fun zoomie boy who’s usually the first at the door to say hi (and the second to sneak out when I open it after his loook-a-like buddy Zero!). [/one_half]

one_half padding=”0 10px 0 0″]Name: Scruffians Fennec
Colour: Cinnamon berkshire
Date of Birth: //21

Fennec is much more laid back than his tornado brother, very sweet and snuggly. He’s staying here as a pet as he was born with a hernia that might need surgery in the future so I’m keeping a close eye on him. He’s an old soul and seems to be the voice of reason in the group of crazy young boys. [/one_half]

one_half padding=”0 10px 0 0″]Name: Scruffians Rattery Equinox
Colour: Cinnamon berkshire (fluffy)
Date of Birth: 26/10/21

This is Scout and Bugs’ baby, Equinox (Nox for short) I ended up keeping lots of this litter – this little dude and 5 of his sisters – because thier dad only ended up having this one lot of kids and he’s from a rattery that is no longer breeding so I want to preserve as much of that family as I can. Nox looks just like his mum and is extra extra fluffy. [/one_half]

one_half padding=”0 10px 0 0″]Name: White Rose Rattery Ayato (Watson)
Colour: Dove berkshire (fluffy)
Date of Birth: //21

Watson has a very dense coat, not as long as some of my other fluff boys but very plush. He’s a sweet little guy, sometimes a bit reserved but he loves ear rubs and will always come and say hi if you have a snack for him.. [/one_half]

one_half padding=”0 10px 0 0″]Name: Bohemian Rattery Cricket
Colour: Black self
Date of Birth: //21

This long boy is Cricket – all the way from Tails of Tuppence Rattery in Wellington. He’s a black self and is already silvering out to look like his dad. He can trace his family back to another rattery that’s no longer breeding so I’m really happy I get to carry on that line up here.
