Whiskers and Swirls in the Quiet Corner

A chubby rat sits up on his back paws, nose high, like he just smelled something tasty from across the room. His shiny black eye shows he’s alert and curious, while his tiny front claws curl close like he’s ready to nibble a treat. Big soft ears catch every sound, and his long tail curves around with neat, patterned lines.

His fur looks like a patchwork quilt, covered in spirals, leaves, and loops. Each swirl and swoop begs for color, making his coat look even fluffier. This rat looks gentle and clever, always ready for a secret midnight snack or a dash behind a cupboard.

Fun Fact!

Rats need to have safe things in their cage to chew on to keep their ever-growing teeth healthy.
