How Cupcake, Snickerdoodle, Almond, and Cannoli joined the family

This was back in April 2024. We were originally on a wait list for 2 female rats. But as things turned out, we ended up taking in Taquito, and couldn't turn Cupcake away. Then in August 2024 we were offered to take in Cannoli too. This is their story of how they joined our family.
Please note that while we do NOT breed our rats, we do keep in contact with the breeder we got them from. We have a soft spot for rats that need homes, so we often end up taking in rats that need a new home, including those that have been retired from breeding that would prefer to become spoiled, cherished pets. We also volunteer to help with socializing baby rats when our breeder has them.
