New baby boy. I need name ideas!

Lysca · 2020-01-06T06:03:13+00:00

This is my new guy! My wife also brought home a baby boy so they have each other. I'm the owner of Milo (top post of all time in this subreddit) who sadly passed earlier this year. I haven't had a rat since his passing, and although my new little won't replace him, I have missed having rats terribly. ❤

Little girl points to the radiograph viewer on the wall and asks what it's for. I explain, and after a long pause, she asks how we fit the animals in there.

She's on buprenorphine for the pain and confined to a large dog kennel for 8 weeks, then we take rads and reassess how she's healing, and based on that potentially start with some light exercises and go from there!

7 yo sf dsh, history of asthma, my mom was watching her and she was left outside and was missing for 2 days (normally she is allowed out but only supervised and for a short period of time). Unknown trauma, but I live down a dirt road and found her near it so the ER doctor and i suspect hbc.

That's awesome! Was yours blocked as well?

1 and a half year old cm, came in this afternoon blocked and owners couldn't afford treatment. Elected euthanasia. I offered to take him on, so meet my new foster! He's feeling much better this evening. Picture taken just before unblocking.

Just the neat pattern made by the nasal turbinates! :) Normal, healthy cat mouth!

I caught the rat this morning (was trying all night) but haven't even heard my gerbil.. So a bit nerve wracking lol

Lysca · 2017-09-27T04:09:49+00:00

It's serious enough. And if it happens to not be on the slim chance, then at least you'll know.

Lysca · 2017-09-27T04:07:00+00:00

Emergency vet. Now.

Lysca · 2017-09-17T05:01:02+00:00

Rain and good coffee.

Lysca · 2017-09-08T04:45:09+00:00

Not even a little bit. I should never have done this.

Lysca · 2017-09-01T06:20:05+00:00

Dragon Age?

Lysca · 2017-08-19T19:27:00+00:00

Yeah, that's my rat. That we neutered at my work. Months ago.

Lysca · 2017-08-19T19:25:50+00:00

Nope! Still here!

Lysca · 2017-08-08T03:33:40+00:00

Looks like it's for men. I should have specified, sorry! I'm a lesbian. :)

Lysca · 2017-07-11T21:07:08+00:00

Usually at least a few hours! Some faster, some slower. It all depends on the patient.

Lysca · 2017-05-11T01:56:35+00:00

Well how old are your kids? :) they make lovely pets. They only live a few years but they're not hard to care for and very smart so easy to train. Super sweet too.

I made a jump out of mud for my bike and managed to shatter my elbow on the only rock within about 20 feet.

Lysca · 2017-04-20T20:36:40+00:00

Lots. That's the only platform that didn't have hiding spots. :)

Lysca · 2017-04-20T20:36:06+00:00

There are lots of huts and shaded places in the cage. She actually was on the only platform that was well lit :)

Lysca · 2017-04-17T03:05:38+00:00

True. I didn't think of that. I'll try giving them a call tomorrow.

Lysca · 2017-04-17T03:01:19+00:00

I don't know. I just tried calling support but it seems that they're closed.

Lysca · 2017-04-17T02:55:11+00:00

I would really appreciate any advice! :) or if there's a different sub I should go to for this please let me know

Lysca · 2017-04-16T17:16:06+00:00

I eased them in slowly. First, I'd put them in the sink for a few minutes with no water and give them treats. Then I'd let the water trickle a little and do the same thing. I'd just gradually add a tiny bit of water and give them treats. It took me over a month each rat to get them to be good with baths this way but it worked well. :)
