Welcome Fellow Rat Lover!

Welcome to Small Town Ratties, a space designed specifically for rat lovers.

With nearly a decade of experience, I have seen it all and learned so much about these intelligent and affectionate little critters. From intentional breeding and adoptions to several oops litters, my husband and I have shared our home with almost every coat type and color imaginable along with 3 types of ears.

My journey has been a colorful one: I've managed planned litters, navigated the chaos of 'oops' babies, and even found my 'heart rat' in a feeder bin at a reptile expo.

I built this site because our pocket pups deserve better than generic pet store advice. Here, you’ll find:

  • Info: A wide variety of information from coat types and colors to personal stories.

  • A Blog: Honest advice and stories from 10 years of breeding and rescuing rats.

  • Essentials: Only the products I trust for my own mischief available from Amazon.

  • My Collection: Exclusive designs for rat lovers, by a rat lover available through my Printify Store.

Generic pet stores just don't 'get' us rat lovers which is exactly why I decided to start my own store. I have spent months designing a one-of-a-kind collection full of products that you won’t find anywhere else that finally celebrate the chaos, fun and beauty of life with rats.

From intricate illustrations of our fun-loving pets to witty 'if you know, you know' humor, these aren’t just products, they are a badge of honor for our favorite little mischief-makers.

Every piece is designed by me, for you. Own something as unique as your favorite heart-rat!
