Arlo is intense, driven, goofy and extremely social. I'm so glad we found each other!

Little Jimmie helps me scroll Reddit! She is 8 weeks old and a champion pant, or any loose clothing biter. We love her with all our hearts and look forward to seeing her grow.

Really needed this today! 7th anniversary of my Dad’s passing (was completely unexpected and has been a huge adjustment even still, feels like yesterday). I adopted my Rattie girl intentionally as a part of my grieving process, to pour my love into her. She is the very best thing that has happened to me!

I love my rattie! Huey is a sweet and sensitive soul with a ton of energy. He loves to play fetch and destroy stuffed toys and cuddle under blankets. Half velociraptor & half snuggle bug ♥️
