Alec’s developed a habit of jumping from my shoulder into the window blinds and then exploring the windowsill! Jack doesn’t look impressed here.

♦ Welcome Jack and Alec!

On 13 April 2021, we acquired two new rats, who were born in February 2021. The chocolate-coloured one is called Jack, who’s a ‘Berkshire’ rat, while Alec is a ‘Roan’ rat and has grey and white markings.

You can read more about them here. Further content will be posted about Jack and Alec in the coming weeks and months!

This website has also been renamed to ‘R. D. Rats & Co.’ and much of the content about looking after rats has been amended and updated. The ‘R. D.’ in the name is a reference to Ronnie and Derek.
