Rosie
This is my new rat Rosie.
A few weeks ago my siamese rat Molly died (5 months old) and i had to find a new friend for my other rat.
She is 6 weeks old, but already is the boss.
She also makes a lot of peeping sounds. (which they normally seldom do) She is a charachter and my “older’ rat is a bit afraid of her!
She has also a bit curly hair.
Taken with canon 5D mark II and canon 100mm macro 2.8
Rosie belongs to the following groups:
5D Mark II, All Pets Great and Small and Pets Are Us ~ 2 per day Available for sale asGreeting Cards, Matted Prints, Laminated Prints, Mounted Prints, Canvas Prints and Framed Prints

Ik vind Rosie erg leuk! Truus is gewoon grappig en doet denken aan afgelopen zaterdag…
En ach die ruzies: opvoeden is een zware job, Ellen…. lol!
Ellen replied
Helaas kun je deze niet echt opvoeden. Als het niet klikt mocht ik ze terugbrengen :)
Bedankt Hans.

Thanks very much Brenda!
F.A. Moore
She’s as beautiful as she can be. Rosie’s such a sweet name too. So she’s the boss, huh? How about that. You know how the babies of the family get away with everything!
Sorry to hear about Molly’s early demise. Must be heart-rending for you to lose one of these babies.
Ellen replied
Yes, she really is the boss,as small as she is :)
Thank you very much Frannie!
The other one probably had a braintumor and was also suddenly blind.
George Lenz
can’t wait to see what new tricks you are going to teach her….

Jeannie Peters
this is a great shot.
only if you have had a rat as a pet can you know how sweet they are.
we have 3, 2 of them are over 6 yrs old. mr jingles is less than a year old.
all have great personalities.
The oldest one of the 3 isn’t doing as well. we think he is blind but he still gets around ok and still wants to be held. :)
we know his time is comming, doesn’t make it easier when it does come.
my heart goes out to you. they are such a joy to us.
Ellen replied
Thats very old, 6 years. Mine never get older than 3 years.
Thank you very much Jeannie for your reaction!

Hello Rosie, yes it can be a problem if they are too smart, she might choose not to perform for you, the Prima Donna thing you know, he he. How did Molly die so young? Poor baby.
Ellen replied
Thanks very much! Molly got suddenly blind, and after that she fall over all the time,and the vet thought she had a braintumor.
It was a birth-defect probably.

Oh I’m sorry to hear about Molly, that is sad news Ellen.
On a happier note, Rosie is so beautiful that when I first saw her in Hans’ photo (as Truus) I thought she was a precious furry toy!
What a gorgeous gal, with the sweet and innocent expression that makes many successful people – and animals – so good at getting their own way. Welcome to RB Rosie!

Rosie is adorable! I am so sad to hear you lost Molly! I had no idea. You must be heartbroken. Introducing a younger rat to an older one is always a risk and I’m so glad that the little Rosie is not going to be intimidated! Hope they are soon best of friends! Hugs to you all! ;o) xxx

Awe,......Rosie is so adorable!!! I am sorry to hear that Molly passed away at only 5 mths of age. They don’t live very long as it is and so when they pass even quicker, its that much sadder. Thank you for sharing this lovely new introductory portrait of your new dear Rosie! Look forward to many more wonderful photos of her! : )
Ellen replied
Thank you very much Sandy,we think she had a braintumor, she was also blind.
Jeannie Peters
I was mistaken on their age, my daughter told me they are 3.
and the skate board is just their size.
lol hope it works out.
lmao might work on my panning as he is rolling at high speeds down hill
Ellen replied
Yes, almost all rats (not the wild rats) dont get much older than 3 and half years.
Good luck with the skate board :)

She is a dumbo-rat, thats why the ears are lower on the head.
