We are a small family run rattery located in northern Pasadena. We have been dedicated hobbyists in the rat fancy game, and are now breeding from time-honored stock. Our animals are bred for personality, temperament and health. While we may at times produce show quality animals, that is not our purpose. We breed these intelligent, affectionate animals to produce loving family pets.

We believe rats are wonderful pets for anyone who is interested in them! They are gentle, clean, intelligent, and therapeutic. Please ask about our priority for chemo patients who want a hairless rat!

Dwarf Rats Our dwarf rats will steal your heart! We have a variety of colors and patterns, and have hairless and are working on double rex and harley!
Hairless Rats    Our hairless rats are the stars of the day! We are blessed with lactating hairless lines...these are healthly babies!
Other Fancy Rats  Beautiful siamese, burmese, hooded, blazes and
                                                    the occasional tailless!

We specialize in siamese, burmese and hairless in dwarf and standard. We are working towards hairless burmese dwarfs and hairless siamese dwarfs.
Check out our past litters to see our precious hairless dwarf babies!

Two beautiful nine month old boys!
Noakes and Cranny. have been adopted by Rat Fancy Rattery. They will be very happy in their new home!

FAR Brownie Batter and RRLM Ahi produced 4 babies. 2 male seal point siamese rexes.  Two dumbo females, one seal point siamese and one burmese.

FAR Wanderer and CAMA Mountain Man One pup, born 5-05-09. Seal point siamese male, dwarf. RESERVED

RAMR Lil Sis and CAMA Mountain Man produced a litter, 5-5-09.  5 pups, 1 female sable dwarf (likely) 1 female sable berkshire, 1 male sable, 1 male sable berkshire, 1 male burmese hood. Reservations are not being taken until we know which ones are dwarf.
AVAILABLE: Pending, 2 females

We are working towards our specific breeding goals at FAR. Our goal is to continue to develop long lived, healthy stock in dwarf and standard sized hairless, and furred dwarf, specifically rexes and variants.

Hopefully hoping: RRLM Gilligan and FAR Chicola and RRLM Gilligan and FAR Peggy. Gilligan is a lovely tailless burmese rex, Chicola is a tailless chocolate girl, and Peggy is a lovely chocolate girl as well. Both girls carry siamese. Hoping for siamese and burmese with chocolate base, and more beautiful chocolates.

Come back when you are done!

If you have had or are currently undergoing chemo and are seeking a hairless rat (I got one during chemo and named her Alopecia!) let me know. I'll move you up on the waiting list! :0) God Bless!
I am hoping for a hairless litter around the beginning of June....

Please remember: Rats are social creatures that do best with a companion of the same sex. Rats do not need to be littermates to be wonderful cagemates, so rats from different litters, even different breeders usually live together very well, especially if introduced at a young age!

Potential Adopters: Please remember to keep in contact with us, letting us know how your rat is doing. We are always striving to improve type, temperament and quality, so we need to hear about our ratties throughout their lives! We are always evaluating our lines, and working to improve them in any way we can.

If interested, contact us to get on a waiting list. F.A.R. always gets p.o.l. Adoption fees are really just a donation to offset the six two plus months of extra care and special enrichment that the mamas get during pregnancy and until they wean their babies. I request a donation of $25 standard ear, $30. dumbo ear. These fees/donations help to cover the cost of cages, high quality food and and health maintenance. Occasionally different fees are requested, as posted. Happy Ratties!
