my rats

Espresso, wanted to help with 'his' website so I told him he could write about himself (he was happy about that!) if he writes about the others too!

mmm..food, i'm hungry!

Hi, i'm Espresso (the really cute, smart and hansom rat!).

Kirsty asked me to write a bit about me (and the others, but their not as interesting).

I'll start with the newest in my home.

'The girls', these two cute rats are in the cage next to us and i've not really met them, kirsty said that Kettle is a Champagne hooded (champagne colored head and stripe down her back)

this is kettle..

and nibbler is black hooded

..and this is nibbler

They're always asleep in their hammock!!

they're always sitting in that hammock!

Next is my best friend Bailey

bailey looks happy!

He lives in my cage and is a black eyed white rat (although he has little patches of gray on his face)

baby bailey (i'm cuter!)

He is a show-off and is always climbing on the side of the cage.

Squishy is an agouti (wild rat colour), missmarked (he has patches on his back) capped rat (colored head).

His new favorite game is climbing to the top platform in the cage and when he wants to get down, he waits for some one to walk on the bottom floor and he falls an them!!! He's done this to me loads of times!!

sqishy's big nose!

Eeep (Squishy's brother) is a nervous, banded husky rat (or striped roan).

eeep (squishy's brother)

He always enjoys eating my food when i'm out of the cage! and when i try to steal his food- he starts squeaking at me and running around the cage!! he's just a strange rat!!

aww.. eeep looks sad!

ok i'm sorry i called you strange Eeep! (don't cry)

Neo is the rat who thinks he can fly and jump through walls. Once when Kirsty put us back in our home for food- yum!! Neo jumped out of her hands, and came within one paws distance from the brick wall next to our cage before Kirsty caught him-phew!

neo

He's a bit nasty and is picking on everyone at the moment (he even bit kirsty!!) so he is now living in his own cage!!!

neo..again!

me!!!

(me!!)

I'm a hansom pink eyed fawn hooded rat.

I was one year old in May!!

me (again)

I think i'm called Espresso cos i'm very fast (if someone is calling me with some treats) and I love a yummy drink people call 'coffee', but no one lets me drink it (except if they leave an unguarded coffee cup on the floor- heh!).

...and (i almost forgot!)

Rat (named 'Super Rat by Kirsty's little sister) is the same colour as me (but not as cute).

Rat

he usually likes to eat any rat that he sees (especially me) and trying to bite kirsty!

I used to live (ages ago) with him and his brother Stupid Rat but I moved in a new cage with a baby rat (who was terrified of Stupid and Rat) called Neo.

I now live with Squishy, Eeep and Bailey in a nice big chipmunk cage with a nice comfy hammock!!
