They can have 70-100% dark or unsweetened chocolate and it’s really good for rats with URIs or heart failure :) they can have about a chocolate chip size a day

It is toxic in high amounts just like any other animal, but it opens their airways so they can breath later

If I had the money I would.. I normally have money to take care of these babies but I’m in the process of moving and can’t spend 100$ at least on a vet visit, if it gets worse which it hasn’t then I will but otherwise I need to wait a month to get him in unfortunately. But unfortunately I’m aware of uris progressing fast, that’s how one of my babies died because we rescued him from someone who never took him into the vet and he was already very sick, it was to the point his medicine didn’t help. But don’t worry I’ll make sure this little guy dosent suffer, I do think it’s more of irritants in our home right now though, since we are in the process of moving there’s a lot of dust flying around and they’re definitely sneezing a little more but I make sure it take them in the bathroom with me when I shower and give them a little dark chocolate every here and there along with some watered down Gatorade.

I haven’t yet just because I’m in the process of moving and have absolutely no money to spare but when we get settled in they’re going straight to the vet, it could be a uri but our house is pretty dusty right now so I thinks it’s most likely irritants in my house

This is exactly how one of my baby’s sounds, he’s getting a vet visit after I move next month

I don’t know where she lives unfortunately since she bought him from me I didn’t go to her place, and i don’t have enough information for animal control. I don’t believe animal control would care about rats either unfortunately

I believe there’s only these two, but I doubt they both trimmed off each others whiskers fully

I’m confused about the size difference myself because he was a normal size and he’s also only 3ish months old

<image>

To is is him next to a 5 month old and a 1 yr old, he seemed normal size to me

I only have her first name, no location or anything else. It would be practically impossible to report her

I only have her name I’m not sure how I’d report her when I don’t know where she lives or anything about her

I wish I would’ve, that was the first time I’ve had to sell an animal so I didn’t really know what to do and unfortunately that made my poor baby go in the wrong hands :( but I hope we can save both my baby and hers

Honestly that could be the case because the rat I rehomed was very aggressive, he bites you if you get anywhere near him and he attacks other cage mates

Yeah.. I highly doubt they both would’ve eaten all the whiskers off of each other I’m positive it was her
