Our lovely South African rat club has organised a ‘Christmas in July’ gift swap for rat lovers across South Africa. This is the first year I’ve taken part, and it’s been a lot of fun. So far I have posted off my gift box to my Secret Santa (SS), and am waiting eagerly to receive the one destined for me 
Here’s a sneak peek at some of the gifts I got for my SS… my choices were obviously based on her preferences…
Ratty Christmas card and rat/cat beanie
Ratty crackers (filled with banana chips), choc-covered sunflower seeds, mouse-themed notepad and giraffe fridge magnet
Giraffe pic, bunny keychain, Wine Gums, purple-and-grey phone charm, coin purse and facecloth
I love giving and receiving gifts, so an idea like this is perfect for me š Can’t wait to see what my SS comes up with for my parcel!

Oh how adorable! It’s all so cute but that itty bitty hat is oh so cute :). ~maria
I was tempted to try it on Flea for a photoshoot… but I couldn’t put the old gal through that in the end! š
Truly adorable!! I like this I always start singing Christmas songs in July. Can’t wait for Christmas such a loving time of year filled with family and friends! I love how cute the gifts are!
It’s made me look forward to actual Christmas too š I’m sure the festive season will be very different for you guys now that you’re in a brand new land?
