Hunnene:

Navn: Ritheann Abhainn Fhiáin (Kiki)
Vekt: 355 gram
Helse: Always been in good health.

Atferd mot rotter: Kiki lives with her sister and hasn't met any other rats since she moved here at 6 weeks old. They get along well; sleeping together and grooming each other before bed. Kiki is generally more interested in exploring than playing with her sister. She usually wins their play fights.

Atferd mot mennesker: Kiki loves to meet new people but they don't hold her attention for very long. She will groom them a bit and then run off to explore. She enjoys a little hand wrestling but after getting riled up she just wants to run and climb. When she is sleepy or in a particularly loving mood she will spend more time with us. Her favorite spots to groom are fingers and foreheads.

Annet: Kiki is very confident and independent! She doesn't mind being out in the open. We call her our "jungle rat" when she gets wild! She loves to climb, is very nimble, and makes impressive jumps to get to places she's not allowed (like the coats in the hallway.) If Kiki falls off something it is often because Lulu knocked them both down by trying to climb after or over her. She's very food motivated and likes to do trick training. If we are standing in the kitchen she will climb our legs to lick our fingers, knowing that our hands will be wet or covered in some tasty food smell. Her chocolatey coat has started to "rust" recently.

Navn: Áilleacht An Fhiáin (Lulu)
Vekt: 320 gram
Helse: Always been in good health.

Atferd mot rotter: Lulu lives with her sister and hasn't met any other rats since she moved here at 6 weeks old. They get along well; sleeping together and grooming each other before bed. Lulu will follow her more confident sister around and is usually the one who starts play fights.

Atferd mot mennesker: Lulu loves to socialize and isn't afraid of new people. She spends a lot of her time sitting in laps and on shoulders. She likes to be held lying on her back while she holds your nose in her hands and grooms you.

Annet: Lulu is less confident than her sister and prefers to have somewhere to hide or a person to sit next to/on. When she is exploring she will often check in on us and give kisses before returning to what she was doing. We call her our little "princess" because she exudes a sense of entitlement. She tires quickly of trick training and will run over if she sees her sister getting attention. Despite being less outgoing she's actually the more troublesome sister; pointedly avoiding the houseplants while you are watching, then digging them up as soon as you turn around. Both of the girls love to crawl around inside our jacket sleeves but Lulu will spend more time there.

Hannene:

Navn: An Dúchas Na Fiáin (Dúchas)
Vekt: 642 gram
Helse: Alltid vært frisk, utenom SDA våren 2019 når vi fikk viruset inn i flokken. Var litt tett og dårlig en periode, men er blitt helt bra igjen.

Atferd mot rotter: En litt forsiktig fyr. Hadde kjempefin intro med Winde når de var ca 2-3 mnd, uten problemer. Kom fint inn i resten av flokken ved ca 3 måneders alder, selv om han er en liten pingle som kan skrike bare fordi noen ser på ham. Nå ved 6-7 måneders alder har han slitt litt med å akseptere nye inn i flokken, men tok dette ut ved å utfordre de eldre i flokken, heller enn de nye. Etter en litt mer langvarig intro er dette nå over og han går godt overens med alle igjen.

Atferd mot mennesker: En litt mer forsiktig fyr, synes det er ekkelt å bli løftet brått, foretrekker å kunne velge selv. Veldig snill og håndterbar likevel, vasker hender og jeg kan gjøre som jeg vil med ham, men blir lettere "stiv" i kroppen enn de andre.

Annet: Utforskende og aktiv under utetid. Kan skvette litt ved brå bevegelser/høye lyder, men kommer kjapt løpende for å sjekke hva det var for noe.

Navn: Fionnad Dath Fiáin (Bela)
Vekt: 610 gram
Helse: Helt frisk hittils.

Atferd mot rotter: Fungerar bra i flocken. Sista månaden har han lite försiktigt utmanat ledarråttan, men nu är det lugnare. Lite brottning och jagat varandra kort, men inga skador. Vill väldigt gärna klättra mot tjejernas bur...

Atferd mot mennesker: Snäll, mkt social, nyfiken.

Annet: Vann 3:e pris i Pet i Finland (Naantali).

Navn: Droim Sléibhe Fiáin (Paquito)
Vekt: 625 gram
Helse: Helt frisk hittils.

Atferd mot rotter: Enkel i flocken, inga bråk, men inte heller uppenbart ranglåg.

Atferd mot mennesker: Alltid snäll och social, båda två är verkligen superråttor <3 samt har agilitypotential :-)
