Oh, my dear Ellen, they get better and better and better. They little Ratzz have the most endearing faces and so much sweetness exuding from their very whiskers! What personality; what star quality; what adorable little creatures. You are one amazing photographer and one amazing person to convey so much to so many! When will you sign the book and movie deal? Soon, I hope! Hollywood, here come Ellen’s Ratzz!

Gilberte, 5 months ago

Ellen, you have a good provider of small instruments.Does this accordeon really play? The rats might get interested in it and play as they do not have to blow.
then you can make a video and we can hear them play!!

CinB, 5 months ago
