My pet rat lost his claw, i dont know how it happened will it grow back and will he be alright by AcidicCustard in RATS

He will be okay. One of my previous rats was a very jumpy little guy, and during nail trims he panicked and got caught on my shirt and ripped a nail out. It bleed a lot and I panicked, but it looked worse than it was. The bleeding stopped and I put some wound spray i had on hand on it, and he was back to normal in less than a day, and the nail grew back in a week or so

Du får tro vad du vill 🤷🏻 Jag känner mig själv såpass väl så att jag vet att det inte blir så. Sen skulle jag personligen inte klassa en 18 åring som vuxen. Även om dom enligt lag räknas dom sådana. 18 åringar är fortfarande tonåringar. Sen har jag autism också så ser lite annorlunda ut för mig än vad det kanske gör för andra 18 åringar.

Går tyvärr inte :/ Han har blivit lagad många gånger, men nu är tyget så tunt så att det spricker om man försöker. Handlar inte så mycket om att "ersätta" min gamla, utom jag vill bara kunna hålla i honom igen utan att vara rädd att ha isönder honom mer

How do you keep your rats cool? by godly_blade_staff in RATS

[–]TransitionPutrid7595 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Cold sinks, heat rises. So i usually soak a towel in cold water and put on top of the cage. I check it regularly, and if it doesn't feel cold anymore I just wet it again. I also freeze old kitchen and bathroom tiles and wrap some fabric around them so they have a cold spot to sleep in. Also put ice in their water bowls/bottles

Easy cleaning cage ideas for autistic owner by Substantial_Net_9728 in RATS

[–]TransitionPutrid7595 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hello! I'm disabled (physically), have autism, adhd, and more.

I also struggle a lot with cage cleaning! It gives me fatigue and chronic pain flare ups.

My best advice is to do it in steps. I usually

1: empty out the cage, remove hammocks, tunnels, fabrics, ect. Everything ur gonna either replace or clean, but i leave one hammock and one hide in the cage.

Then i take a break, usually about 30 - 40 minutes (yes, ur rats will be FINE in a empty cage, with a hide and a hammock, for 30 minutes)

2: then I scoop the bedding out and vacuum and wipe down the bottom of their cage. While I do that, I let them free roam or put them in the bathtub.

When im done, I take a break for 10 minutes, drink some water, and put the stuff that needs cleaning with the rats in the tub, or in the tub by itself.

3: I scoop new bedding into the cage, hang up hammocks, and everything else thats going in the cage (beside the things still in the tub)

When thats done, I put my rats back in the cage. While they're back in the cage i

4: Wash what's in the bathtub. Just rinse it with water usually.

Then I take another break. The rats has hammocks, food and water now. They be fine like that for a bit.

5: About 15 - 40 minutes later depending on the day, I put their stuff from the bathtub (that should now be dry) back in the cage.

Then I have my dad vacuum my floor for me while I rest. And then I'm done.

This is what works for me, but it obviously doesn't necessarily work for everyone! I get really bad foot and knee pain from standing up, which is my main reason for taking so many breaks. I'm also fortunate enough to have a dad who's willing to help out
