About Us Hi my name is Andrea. Ralph and I live in Queensland Australia about an hour drive to Brisbane and the Gold Coast. We have always had dogs, cats, birds and fish but we started keeping Rats in 1993. It came about when I was watching television and one of the evening programs featured a family with pet rats. Both of us really love animals and so when we went to the pet shop to get fish supplies, I soon became interested in the 2 rat boys Harold and Henry that were on display. One day one of them picked up the food bowl, rolled it over to his sleeping friend and put the bowl on top of him. I was sold! I had to have one of these delightfully smart and humorous creatures. So a week later we got Beatrix a female agouti hooded rat. AND the rest is history. Ratly Manor suits the name of our house it is a small wooden cottage on acreage. Ralph and I live there with our assorted varieties of babies. 2 Dogs, birds, fish and of course our rats which rule the home.
Our current rat population as of February 2009 consists of 5 males, Cassanunda, Zerox, Ziltch, Jarat and Riley otherwise known as the Minky Brothers.
Our dogs are Zane the Doberman and Gina a toy poodle x. Oliver the Canary, Lovey the Dove and her 4 friends, 2 crested pigeons and goldfish. Come in and meet us. |
