Awwwww cute!
...But Steph, I dont remember you having a ratty :lol:
He's lovely . I'm currently rat sitting 6 boys who are great but stink compared to my 8 girls :lol:
Does the poor chap not have a friend?
His brother sadly passed away last month
I'm just a ratty babysitter :lol:
He's my best friends. He comes to me if she goes away because her parents can't do the medication

Awww
They sound like lovely little pets, but im a bit scared of them I dont know what it is. :lol:
Aaaaw. This is what happened with my first pair 6 weeks after I adopted them . They were 2 and a half though.
He is such a handsome boy.
This little lad is now 2 and 8 months. Few health problems but happy and doing well. Also thrieving off human company thankfully
You should meet some. I've cured many people of their rat phobia. I'm yet to convince my mum to meet mine but she's 180 miles away so a little tricky to convince her to travel all this way to potentially just be scared.
Aaaaw. that's great. I have an old girl in my group who I adopted in October. I was told she was 3 but I think she could have been as young as 2. She is still with us but is blind, hard of hearing, has 2 lumps (neither of which are causing discomfort. Had one removed in november when she was stronger), she has HLD and arthritis but can still run in the wheel and climb the verticle bars of our explorer cage. She amazes us daily.
I wanted to, but i dont know anyone with rats anymore. My friend had some but she used to torment me with them :evil:
Im sure i wouldnt be scared if i actually got to know them and their behaviour. I used to be scared of rabbits at one point, just the stereotype that they bite and scratch :roll:

She sounds fantastic!
This little guy has an infection that he's stuck with, so has daily meds to keep it at bay, and he has a bit of paralysis in his back legs. He can still walk, but his back feet don't respond properly.
He's still doing so well though, eating like a goodun and loving cuddles
Sounds like HLD. Has the vet checked his joints? We put our old girl on metacam as the vet thought her knee joints were swollen. It has made a massive difference as she had given up climbing but is now almost as good as the others.
What infection does he have and what's the meds? Sorry for the questions but I'm a bit of a rat health geek . Vets round here never have a clue so I tend to do most of my own diagnoses and treatment plans so it's turned into a bit of a hobby
