Thank you so much for visiting my website! I’m Marelle, a rodent and reptile enthusiast born and raised in Philadelphia, PA. My deep interest in animals and the natural world started at a young age with the support and encouragement of my family - and ever since my experiences have ranged from reptiles to small pets such as guinea pigs, mice, hamsters and gerbils and finally landed at rats, my biggest passion.

While I began with standard rats, dwarfs captured my passion as soon as I was introduced to them. My mission as a rat breeder is to better the fancy through education and with a focus on breeding for temperament, robustness of health, and longevity.
