Pekoe

Topaz berkshire

DOB:  13th October 2009


About Pekoe

We adopted Pekoe from a rat show, along with his brothers Pester and Spruce -  three delightfully cheeky and gorgeous little fuzzlets to be company for our lonely Dash who had recently lost his friends.

Pekoe (a.k.a. Peeks) was n
amed after orange pekoe tea, due to his slightly rusty orange colour and his love of 'steeping' himself in the water bowl.  He's an odd character.... he seems to be the boss rat, always instigating the wrestling matches, but once you hold him he goes all limp in your hands and enjoys a licky scritch.  He has such a sweet innocent expression that reminds me so much of Stattles.



Photos of Pekoe


Tiny and cute on the day we brought him home.


He is a gorgeous friendly little fuzzlet.


And rather nosy.


Looking adorably cute as he peeks out of the clubhouse roof.


He's growing into a big teen fuzz already.


He LOVES to play in water, all the better when there's peas to fish for!


He's remarkably squishy for a young rat and loves to be held and scritched.


Looking charmingly dignified for a moment.



Tales of Pekoe Coming soon!  

More tales of Pekoe and his friends on the Ratty Ramblings page.
