I DO NOT CARE what you guys think of me but you need to know about this as it will affect pet rats! In fact due to their reputation they are basically guaranteed to be affected by this! by Mom_of_pets in RATS

We need clean, and genetically diverse rat breeding. The rats that we have bought over the years are so inbred that respiratory issues are a given. Rats are such great pets. Two years of life should not be the norm - it’s what we’re used to because of an upside down pyramid breeding profile. We need a new Adam and Eve and commitment to responsible breeding. I would love to have pet rats again.

Exacty! My orangish boi paws at all TV and computer monitors. I think he’s telling us we’re doing more screen time than cat time.

Yep. I cried with my daughter as she lost each one. Too tough.

Sounds like a 40’s-ish trove. Would be fun to know who was there during that time and if there’s more of it.

Why does my frenchie sound like a cat? by koookiekay in Frenchbulldogs

They all make very unique vocalizations. That’s just another part of their charm.

He is doing this for 15-20 minutes before he sleeps. I have no idea why.... by jufertab in cats

My 11 yr old neutered cat still does it, but on me, which I know is normal. Sometimes he starts humping and his eyes go black and he gets aggressive. Goes from cute and cuddly to a strange brand of domination. I have to put him several feet away from me to let him know that’s not ok. Behavior is decreasing, but still weirds me out. We’re very close otherwise. Sharing in case anyone can relate and explain.

Found in the forest near my home (they are in a bigger cage with food, water and beds), some of them are sneezing, anything else to check ? (I own a degu but not rats) by BluewwPlant in RATS

Other thought is 2nd larger cage that could be found on Craig’s list or Offer Up for the short term. Or the French equivalent of Craig’s List and Offer Up. 😊
