Returnees

Any rat that I have homed I will always take back, no questions asked. Due to a change in the owners circumstances these little ones needed to be returned last week.

Silver Champions

Both Caledonian Bracken and Hakuna Matata Mr Vandemar were awarded Silver Champion status at the NFRS AGM on saturday.

Rats need a total of 8 stars in order to be awarded Silver Champion status, each show is awarded a star status and stars are awarded to rats that the judge considers to be a good example of their variety, see the NFRS Rules and Regulations.

About Me

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 roles of Hon. Treasurer and 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.
