Heather's babies


Caledonian Heather had a litter of just 4 babies over at Hakuna Matata Stud earlier this week. After 2 large litters a litter of 4 seems so tiny, however given everything that could go wrong I'm happy that she gave birth successfully.

First Caledonian Best In Show

Congratulations to Jenna from Hakuna Matata Stud who got Best In Show at NFRS Clevedon show with Caledonian Dazzle. It turns out the mystery coloured buck is Russian Silver and a good one at that.

I'm just hoping that the litter mates I've kept will have equally as good success at future shows.

The little one himself, a few weeks back.

Welcome

Welcome to the Caledonian Rattery blog. Here you'll find regular updates and news of everything going on at Caledonian Rattery.

But first, who am I?

My name is Lois and I have a small rattery based in Southampton, Hampshire, UK. My aim is to breed good tempered, healthy rats in Russian Blue Point Siamese, Seal Point Siamese and Black for both pet and show.

I am a member of the NFRS, and tend to show my rats at NFRS shows in the south and south west. I am also a NFRS Show Secretary and a member of the NFRS Committee with the role of Website and Forum Administrator.

Caledonian Rats is not an NFRS stud name, but simply a name I used to identify the rats I breed. However, 'Caledonian Rattery' is an NFRS registered rattery and I hope to gain my stud name in the future.

Thank you to Jenna Sutcliffe of Hakuna Matata Stud for both providing me with wonderful rats for the foundations of my lines, and the ongoing and invaluable help and advice without which I would not be here now.

If you have any queries regarding rats, my website or would like to be placed on my waiting list for kittens, please email me.
