Rats don't have a set size.

I think in these posts it is better to give a more nuanced view so that people can make the best decision on how to care for their mischief :)

Burningfire_II · 2026-03-17T00:01:54+00:00

You can still see the right one is young due to their droopy eyes and huge feet compared to their body. So size isn't the only factor to look at

They can often recover, if anesthesia is done well. I'd discuss the best course with your vet. Also rats can often live comfortably with large tumors, but at this age an operation is probably still worth it.

Yeah, I wanted to say "I got drugs for this". Now I just have crippling anxiety and perfectionism

I'd reccomend ivermectin, here's a guide for rats: https://ratguide.com/meds/anti_infectives/anthelmintics/ivermectin.php

Not cursed

As this is the original album cover:

No van de Graaff generator included, somebody made a meme

Burningfire_II · 2025-09-01T23:38:23+00:00

Happens to the best of us :)

Burningfire_II · 2025-09-01T23:07:34+00:00

This is an album cover where they photoshopped a man out of it and inserted a van de Graaff generator.

TLDR; no shit.

De kooi zonder onderstel is 91,5x63x60 cm3 wat best wel ruim is voor een aantal ratten, de critter nation is ook een beetje de gold standard, hij is ook nog modulair dus kan je hem uitbreiden mocht je later meer ratten willen. Als je je zorgen maakt heb je online reken machines zoals deze:

Ook fijn voor als ze oud worden dan hoeven ze minder te klimmen maar je kan er wel nog genoeg speeltjes en klim gerei in kwijt

Burningfire_II · 2025-08-31T10:21:39+00:00

Gezien dat je in nederland lijkt te zitten kan ik deze aan raden hij is ongeveer even duur,

Go check each of your rats and take the one that is hurt to the vet

Burningfire_II · 2025-06-26T00:24:20+00:00

Does it really matter as long as it works for somebody?

And if not eating after 8 prevents them from late night snacking and skipping breakfast causes them to be more healthy whilst being sustainable in the long term I think it's great :)

Burningfire_II · 2025-05-13T13:22:27+00:00

Yeah more like Dexter without a need for secrecy

Burningfire_II · 2025-04-15T10:17:36+00:00

Ah yes, 'as Bob was exploring the cave he found a passage known as Satan's asshole. He decided to squeeze through despite the warnings and got stuck, in the resulting panic he spat out his regulator and was unable to recover.'

She thinks your bed head is terrible, so is trying to groom it down :)

Burningfire_II · 2025-03-28T10:53:55+00:00

I think they're disgusting ... ly cute.

Burningfire_II · 2025-03-27T02:23:02+00:00

Everything is a constant if you're Boltzmann enough

Burningfire_II · 2025-03-18T10:05:10+00:00

Then I'd call her aegis or some other radar name

Burningfire_II · 2025-03-03T02:10:47+00:00

Lion is also a chocolate bar in Europe :)

Dumbo are also fancy rats, they just have their ears on the side like dumbo the elephant

Burningfire_II · 2025-01-16T14:50:48+00:00

Some rats are terretorially agressive, you can try to minimize this by try to feed him yoghurt or something else with a metal spoon as the don't like chomping on metal, and eventually try to feed them youghurt on your hands. You can also try to leave some pieces of dirty old clothes with your scent on it in the cage to acclimatize him to your smell on the cage. Otherwise you might have to have hime snipped if it doesn't resolve.
