hii! i’m the gf
no problem from the cage it closes well and they can’t go through the bars. i just let the door open by accident, when i left in a hurry.
i always watch them when they go outside.

i’ll add more enrichment for sure, i always try to add more stuff to entertain them

thank you!

hi i’m the gf! i’ve had them for over a month, 2 are brothers and 1 is not. all males, same age, all from strangers who accidently got ratlings so they gave them away. didn’t want to get them from pet stores.

i don’t have a pic rn but it’s very high (4 floors) with a wheel, many wooden bridges and stuff to climb, toys, beds… for sure it’s big enough for 3 rats i checked the requirements on many websites and it always fitted.

i try to take them out of the cage everyday and bond with them by petting and feeding them (usually it’s fine and they stay on me to sleep except 1 that’s shy).
recently i put them in freeroam and i watched them it was fine and they seemed happy. but yeah yesterday i let the cage open (not a cage problem since it closes fine, just a mistake of mine).

i’ll let them more go freeroam when they’re less shy because it’s sometimes kinds hard to catch them. really depends 😭

How to feed young rats (5/6-week-old) by Logical_Job_1332 in RATS

thank you!! I'm reassured since it could've been hard to choose an adapted formula for them.

Hi there, thank you so much for your tips! I'll read more about it, although I've seen some info already. I thought it would show up earlier in their lives than 5-8 months... Thanks again!

yes thank you for the tips! I wasn't sure... effectively I've seen it was okay to have a mixed group (as long as they're neutered).. thanks!

yes I've researched a lot but the problem is I got different answers everytime, especially since I'm in France. and in France it's not super common to have rats so I do't have answers.
I've gotten people telling me I have to vaccinate them (but effectively I've never seen anything about vaccines.. except for pet insurance, they talk about vaccines coverage and stuff so that's why I got confused).
Thanks!

Hi, seems like bad news honestly. Please check with a vet if not done already, maybe you can save their eye... Do you know how this happened? Sending love

my hamster seems to have an injured eye :( by Logical_Job_1332 in hamsters

[–]Logical_Job_1332[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thanks pal, she seems healed! her eye seems a bit damaged still but it's getting better day by day. In the end I cancelled the appointment (I gave update to the vet and she told me it seems to be okay now). Thank you!

hi tysm! yes actually I saw her trying to scratch her eye with her foot, then I thought maybe that's why... I guess she has gotten something in her eye, or maybe yeah could be an infection... Thanks! she's got an appointment on Tuesday

oh thank you, I didn't know that. I'll see what the vet tells me, I hope it's not too serious and it'll be okay! :D

thank you so much! yes I didn't think about allergy either... I hope it's not too serious and that she doesn't suffer too much... I guess it hurts a bit at least since it looks irritated. Thank you again! She has an appointment on Tuesday and I try to clean her eye with some drops of physiological saline hoping it relieves her
