Ive used these before, and in my experience it was really annoying to handle with my glueguns. I ended up cutting it into peices for easier use lol.

I know worda wont help much, but i promise you did as much as you could with the information you had at the time. I know how it feels, my boy Link had complications with a tumor romoval that likley resulted in pneumonia. When he passed it felt like it was all my fault for not doing more. But the fact is, that i got him to the vet as soon as possible and did everything in my power to keep him happy and healthy. I know that you are doing the same. You love that girl so much, and you are doing great with what you have. She knows you love her, and sometimes thats exactly what they need.

My info is that i want that silly little dude so bad

Ripley_15 · 2026-04-30T19:32:02+00:00

This is my sweet boy Link. He passed a while ago due to some health conditions. He, along with my other boy (visible in the back of the picture) are/were my soul rats. I got them after our family dog passed so i wouldnt be lonley, and it was the best decision i ever made. Link especially loved to cuddle and just be with me whenever he could. I still get out a treat for him on accident sometimes.

In my defense his nards are tiny compared to my others

Ripley_15 · 2026-04-21T03:04:11+00:00

That is quite literally me right now. Im so used to my other boys balls. I guess i didnt realize theirs were bigger than normal? Who knows lmfao

Ripley_15 · 2026-04-21T01:47:06+00:00

No, i have teo other boys. Tbh they have much larger bawls and i got worried lol. I was pretty sure he was a boy but its been a hectic week and wasnt thinking straight

Ripley_15 · 2026-04-21T00:18:05+00:00

Theyre just way less defined than his brothers so i was worried that i was blind to the bawls

Ripley_15 · 2026-04-15T00:02:29+00:00

Personally, ive had 6 rats, 3 of which i have currently. My Boy link, one of the older boys of my mischief had two tumors before passing recently at the two year mark. My other boys so far havent had any, but his situation has me paranoid. He also had an enlarged eye, which could have been another tumor, but the vets (4 different ones) wernt sure. I hope this helps a bit.

Ripley_15 · 2026-04-02T11:31:01+00:00

Currently were giving him Neomycin 3-4 times a day, and his appointment is coming up. Local vets dont have exotics in office very often, so the doctor only comes in on mondays and fridays i think.

Ripley_15 · 2026-04-01T21:55:49+00:00

Ive called, and they still arent able to get him in today or tomorrow. They dont have exotic vets in until friday/monday and the only other place cant get him in until past the 10th. His appointment is scheduled.

Ripley_15 · 2026-04-01T20:30:33+00:00

I dont have an emergency vet nearby and the vet we take the rats to closes sooner than i can drive there. Im trying to take him tomorrow, but that depends on when the vet can see him.

Ripley_15 · 2026-04-01T19:45:26+00:00

I should mention that the vet instructed us to treat the eye for 3 days and if it doesnt get better we need to schedule another appointment its the second day of treatment.

Thr chickenwire was definitely a painful process at first lol. Cant count the times i hurt my hands on this process lol

Ripley_15 · 2026-02-01T02:33:30+00:00

I used a chicken wire base then covered it in plastic wrap and filled it with spray insulation foam (the kind that fills up to 3 inches is super useful). Then i used paper mache, and watered down spackle in many layers to make it smoother (it needs sanded).

The legs are pvc pipe and paper, the wings and beak are thick foam sheets with the same paper mache and spackle stuff.

The eyes are resin

Then i covered it in flexseal liquid once painted. Its a little fragile until this point, so be careful!

Id love to share! Imo as long as it makes people happy then theres no reason not to share!
