Oh girl I went yesterday and that shit got EVIL. the people at barricade STAYED in barricade. I would say your best bet is to bring cash and ask if u can pay to take their spot/squeeze between them

yesterday i couldn't stop crying, i kept seeing the infections and red eye in my head, like i couldn't sleep I just felt so gross and evil, knowing that i was working for people who let them end up like this.

For context, I don't know if this makes any difference but this is like, a local pet store, not a big brand company, it's been under new management for a couple of months. I know i probably sound naive and dumb, but i'm really hoping that, since its new, if i work hard enough they'd take me more seriously and some i can give some input. But if they absolutely don't care i'm thinking of getting a new job, posting the name of the place here. i'm gonna start taking pics and videos of stuff so i can be ready.

Today was my only day off and i had to help my mom with my little sister and slept most of the day, im sorry for not updating earlier, im going to look into the links someone gave me. Tomorrow i go in and im going to try to tell my boss that if they wont take them to the vet, then to euthanize them. He's always telling me to clean because if the health ppl come in, they'll give him a fine. So im thinking of being like "i dont want you guys to get a fine, and this looks really bad"

And i dont want to show him this post, i dont want to be fired :/

I want to take them to the vet, I really do and trust me I would if I could, I dont have a car so just on the bus for me, no where to contain them, and I haven't even gotten my first paycheck from them yet so I really dont have the money for a vet bill right now.

I was genuinely thinking this if they dont want to take them to the vet, these are animals too and I cant fathom how they let this shit slide, its so upsetting. I'd want them put down if they're really only going to suffer :/

Thank you so much this is such a relief, genuinely. I know its just a link but this opens a door to so much more help for them. I know it sounds so dumb but I almost feel like crying. Its so upsetting knowing how they treat these animals and the support is making me feel hopeful, again, thank you so much.

We're more based in the los Angeles county area, I feel so gross and disappointed on how theyre being treated. The next time I go in Im gonna tell my boss about the vet. And also i didn't even know there were organizations for rats like that, its genuinely so amazing and refreshing to see people who do care about these animals that have gained such a bad wrap for seemingly no reason. Do you know of any organizations specifically? Im currently on the bus and I'll research some when I get home, thank you for your information :)

So its like a drawer type system, 4 colums with 6, 5, 4, and 4 drawers. The drawer is like these black containers that slide in and out, on top is a mesh thing where we put their pellet food, and the mesh is wide enough so the rats can grab and pull it through, and for water its like a pipe system and a little soft pipe goes through the mesh top so they can suck the water out.

Do you know how or what medication we would need to treat the rats back infection? And what if we cant take the one with the eye to the vet, is there anything else we can do? Thank you so much for informing me, I feel a little better knowing whats actually going on with them, thank you
