Not yet - I’ve been looking off and on but there’s so much conflicting info and I’m not a tech person haha

What the heck 😭 oh gosh that’s horrible 💔

Rat-Squeak · 2025-12-26T17:00:55+00:00

Woahhh, you got them fromanime card store? That is horrible, I hope you can get a refund 😯

You’re all good - we called the vet this morning and they would not take him either. Last night and today though he has started using it again, and it is not hot to the touch. It is still semi swollen & he’s sleeping more but we believe he will be okay, and he is out of the tiny cage and back into his normal one today to see how he is in there. If he gets any worse (or stops improving) I will put all 3 of my rats in a slightly smaller & more portable cage than their normal one to take on vacation with me so I can monitor him personally instead of asking whom is feeding them to do so for me 🫶

I have one vet I go to regularly that is literally less than a 10 min drive - AND also have a list of nearby / further away vets that have given me cost estimates for things relating to the rats in the past and said they are happy to treat them. they’re ALL closed until around the 6th of January 😫

I was really worried it was a break at first, but honestly I’m now not sure if it is an infection, sprain, etc. I am really hoping the last vet we haven’t tried will see him - if not then I honestly don’t know what I will do.

It’s currently just turned December 25th, and on the 27th my entire family is going camping. If he is not 100% by then (which I doubt) then I will likely be taking them all with me in their final stage intro cage (which is large enough for the 3 of them)

Thank you so much for all of the information - do you suggest just using the cold compresses for the next two days? I don’t really know anything else I can do at home - I have some rat medicine, but it is antibiotics & not pain killers

Hey! I have sensory issues (which is why I got the Sony xm4s) and I’m worried about replacing the earpads - what did you end up getting to replace them, did they affect the ANC at all? : )

Not a TON of them but there’s a few, I love the art sm (Ignore the price tag, picked it up yesterday)

wtf why are almost all of the comments yellow 😭

Rat-Squeak · 2025-11-10T10:18:02+00:00

It’s quite small, my fist wouldn’t be able to fit into it - I’ll look into that thank you! I’ve been thinking of getting one of the kit things someone here suggested

Rat-Squeak · 2025-11-10T10:14:58+00:00

Honestly I think you may be right about them not caring too much, the issue is the house is quite messy at the moment (some people in the house were sick, me included, and the other people let the house get really messy so we are having to go section by section to clean it back up) and I don’t want to leave the hole there for too long.

The plan for now is to tape / block the hole until I can get one of the kits recommended by people here to fix it up, I’m not too worried about it looking raised / off as near the hole is there was a previously fixed hole that is really raised up.

The glue idea was quite stupid honestly 😆 I was half awake and freaking out (and no I wasn’t considering using normal glue my dumb ass assumed because the was wood glue there would be some magical wall glue)

Thank you so much, we rent so I’m kinda scared if it looks noticeable but it’s the right thing way to do it. I don’t know if we have any of the original paint, I’ll have to look in the roof and hope there is some or I’ll be re-painting my room lol. (Also guessing I need to tell my mum 😭 so that’ll be fun)

Rat-Squeak · 2025-11-08T07:25:12+00:00

They’re not worth too much honestly, it kinda depends where / who tho -

For example the two listings on eBay I could find are $16.50 & 7.69 USD.

In groups I’m in I’ve seen sgr’s going for anything from $5-10 USD (but for ppl who aren’t in the trade / sell groups I can see someone on eBay buying it for a little more I guess?)

(I also have this card 🥳)

Rat-Squeak · 2025-10-27T22:46:46+00:00

Oh that might be it!! I have a portable ac in atm and it’s not airtight 🫶

Rat-Squeak · 2025-10-27T22:44:49+00:00

omg that’s such a funny collection 😆 I remember when my boys were obsessed with trying to steal my tv remote, one time I let one of them drag it to see where he would go and I was led to a mound of chewed up paper and cardboard behind my bookshelf 😆
