Welcome to Snuggs Ratcare Official!

An Indigenous-owned, small business dedicated to providing high-quality, affordable products for your small animals!

What is Snuggs Ratcare Official?

Well, as stated above, we are a small pet care business. Our mission is to provide small pet owners with fun and affordable products that not only you will love but your pets will too.

What do we sell?

Rat snuggles sell a multitude of products. All of which are handmade with love. Our inventory includes; treats, hammocks, and chews!

Product descriptions:

Treats

Just like any other pet, rats- and any other rodent- LOVE treats. However, it has been proven difficult to find things that rats can actually eat. We make fun and yummy treats for your small pets! All hand-made and rat tested!

Chews

A fun fact: ALL rodents have teeth called incisors: a pair of teeth in the bottom and top of their mouth that never stop growing! To keep their incisors healthy and appropriately sized, they grind their teeth and chew everything. To help your furry friend you should always supply them with lots of things to chew on! That’s where we come in. All our chews are baked to kill germs, made with locally sourced materials, and are never made with harmful woods.

Hammocks

Rodents are quite lazy. Most love to lay around all day and play at night. Why not provide them with comfy places to do so? We hand make hammocks of all sizes for your pets. All materials are washed before being used to ensure they are clean and won’t shrink. We make more than just flats so there is plenty to choose from and if nothing catches your eyes? Shoot us a dm and we will make customs!

It is brown with black, green, and orange lizards as well as some white and orange flowers scattered around. The second photo is of the bottom of the hammock which is green. Both photos have a soft white background.]

Why make a small business dedicated to pet rodents?

Why? Why dedicate your free time to making products for an industry that is so small? Why not try a different route? Resin art is quite popular at the moment, surely that would make you more profit. Trust us, we know. The truth is we don’t really care about making a profit. What we care about is much more important than a few coins. We care about you and your pets. As small pet owners, we know the struggle of providing fun and exciting things for your pets. We have been the ones searching all night for just the right thing, only to come out empty-handed. We love our rodents and want to share that with the world. Here, at Snuggs, we want to give back to the community that has been there for us when we needed it. We want to say thank you. That’s why we have chosen to open a small business dedicated to your rodents, and we promise, We are dedicated.

So, where do you get your fabrics?

As we said before, we love and care for your pets. However, we also care about the environment. Did you know that 5% of all landfills are filled with clothing and fabric that could have been repurposed? “Globally we produce 13 million tons of textile waste each year 95% of which could be reused or recycled.” With that being said, we want to do our part in keeping Mother Earth clean. We only use recycled fabrics that we get from donations and thrift stores. All products are cleaned as soon as they are brought into our house to ensure that there is no dirty bacteria on them. We still suggest that you clean everything you get just in case.

Meet the team!

Our team consists of two rats and a very proud rat father.

The boys

No, not the Backstreet Boys, the Snuggs Boys. Who, in our opinion, are way better.

First, we have Toby. Toby is my heart rat and he’s just the sweetest. He loves his snuggles, crawling right into your shirt to fall asleep in your warmth. He will take anything you have in your pockets because everything belongs to him. He will try to clean your mouth so keep your lips closed, he’s not a toad, he will not turn into a prince no matter how many times you kiss him.

And now we have Vinny. Vinny is 100% sure that he owns the place. He is super shy but gets sad if you don’t give him attention. Although Both Toby and Vinny are runts, Vinny refuses to accept that. Because Vinny has horrible eyesight he sometimes mistakes for fingers for treats. He doesn’t mean any hard, just very very blind.

And now there’s me, the dad of the two handsome boys and this lovely business. My name is Andrew, I’m 18 and I use he/him pronouns. I have always loved animals and one day I hope to own a farm with my husband. My boys are my everything. I love them with my whole heart and would do anything for them. I truly do care for everyone and their pets which is why I’m here today. I’m a child at heart and a punk at soul. I’m the human embodiment of a rat; food motivated and extremely cuddly.
