About Pester

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

Pester (a.k.a. Pesto, Pesty, Pest) was so named because he pesters us constantly. He's always buzzing about in your face, up your nose, snuffling in your ears, trying to get into your mouth or eat your hair. You shoo him away and he immediately tries again and again. <sigh> If he wants to go somewhere you don't want him to he just keeps on trying over and over and over again, completely exasperating, but hilariously silly. As usual the 'mad mink' in the group is the trouble maker. Isabelle (our daughter) loves him! As soon as we open the cage door he leaps out onto the sofa arm and runs along the backrest to get to the windowsill. Issy squeals "naughty rat!" with utter delight and grabs him and puts him back in the cage. Of course, we do this over and over and over again, neither of them ever getting bored with the entertainment.

He's a gorgeous silvery mink colour with a perfect white berkshire belly. Lean and fast and hyperactive he's the smallest of his brothers. He has the trademark 'mad mink' cheeky expression on his face that just looks like lots of trouble, especially when it's snuffling right there in your face.

Cute and cheeky.

I'm as big as Uncle Dash!

His white head spot was very distinct for a few days before his adult coat came in.

Being naughty.

There's not much of him to squish, but he's so cute in your hands.

Looking all grown up.
