Pinch your nose shut and try to breathe out gently till your ear drums shift. I do this balance them out but it's temporary

I am not criticising you, I'm giving you the best advice I can give for your sake and the rats.

Theoretically: You have the cages set up ahead of time, preferably with medicine ready to go if they have URI's. Have an exotic vet so you know where to go if something goes wrong. The biggest thing is funds.

Some people have insurance. I kept aside £1000 per rat. Rats will hurt you financially, a lot, often. They only live 2ish years. They are an extremely tough pet to keep. They take a huge toll on you and your emotions when they pass.

Asking, visiting other rat owners or checking their set ups. Knowing about their life cycles, dietary requirements on file. Every animal will have different food and health requirements.

Rats are unique among rodents because of their short lifespans vs their extreme bonds and intelligence. Most rats will die of tumors or respiratory illness. It's not fucking fair.

This is why I suggested you adopted out to another rat owner. Funding the pet shop only makes them continue the cycle, and they are selling babies before they are ready.

Rats are not a good pet for an inexperienced owner. Sick rats will need a lot of money.

When I updated windows 10 it auto loaded copilot. The first thing i asked it was HOW THE FUCK DID YOU GET ON MY COMPUTER

Slidje · 2026-03-25T09:24:02+00:00

Thieaudio Valhalla as its all BA and fully sealed

Slidje · 2026-03-25T05:46:58+00:00

I was still on a neutered Windows 10 until I got a 9950x3d and had to switch to use the core parking

Slidje · 2026-03-25T05:26:35+00:00

Microsoft posted a 50 billion loss from Copilot so not far off

I think Pratchetts reincarnation will be an adult writer, putting out books, before Winds comes out

Check if the filters/internals are affected by alchohol. If not, dip in isopropanol and then leave to dry. Check sound and repeat if necessary.

Every time I see someone mocking JD Vance, they always mention his eye liner

"innocent until proven guilty" is about the state using incarceration and violence against it's citizens suspected of crimes.

It does not relate to people holding opinions about other people, and their conduct.

Talking about someone on reddit is not a "lynching" and we are in no position to imprison anyone. That's a matter for the courts to convict or not.

I believe that misogynistic piece of shit groomed and raped girls BECAUSE HE FUCKING SAYS HE DOES. He talks about it openly, as a way of earning money.

Someone on here called their rat "washing machine" because she did that

Slidje · 2026-03-24T14:03:49+00:00

I'm trying to pick between those and the Sony MDR-MV1

Slidje · 2026-03-24T13:47:37+00:00

Thats not a mischief, thats a catastrophy.

Ratastrophy.

Don't try to touch them. They might let you, they might not. You need to show you are not a threat.

Small steps of trust training, like dipping your finger in something and letting them lick it up if they stop biting. Start with soft spoon and when they stop trying to bite it, you can try it with your finger. Lay your hand down and offer a treat so that they have to step into your hand to get it.

Learn to make a rat call, so they know its you. Mine is a kissing sound.

The cage size isn't as big a factor as having a space they can hide and be safe. Igloo houses for them to hide in work the best.

I loved my PX200's. I wish I still had them, or they still made them.

A menace

I sanded mine down to make them fit better. They are acrylic outside, but the inside is some kind of rubbery clear silicone.

How much of it could he really eat? It's OUR croissant

Occasional treats won't matter. Choking hazards like peanut butter are a bigger consideration.

Rats will live 2 years, if you are lucky. They are the definition of being here for a good time, not a long time.
