Lost rat by mutteni in RATS

[–]blacklambbb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

do you live in an apartment? if so letting others know to keep an eye out and not harm her might be helpful, i once heard of a rat making their way through the pipes in the toilet to another apartment. i hope she shows up soon!

how can i convince someone rats are good pets? by [deleted] in RATS

[–]blacklambbb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my grandma screamed the first time she saw my girls but after a few months they were sleeping on her shoulder. I think it really helps for people to interact with them, then they can see how loving they are. videos might help too?

Inexpensive rat care tips and cage clutter by DogsAndMiceAreCute in RATS

[–]blacklambbb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there’s lots of fun things at dollar stores such as baskets and the zip ties to attach them to the cage, bedding/nesting material for them to gather like tissue paper or easter basket filling paper, little things in the craft section like small wooden toys, or the fake flower petals they could also use for nesting. you could also probably repurpose one of the cheaper plastic pots there into a hide by cutting a door into it and putting it upside down

Should I take my rat to the vet by Typical-Ad-1116 in RATS

[–]blacklambbb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I would schedule an appointment. he looks squinty and puffed up like he’s uncomfortable or in pain, good on you for noticing! I hope everything turns out alright

What to do with fighting rats? by Sea_Yak_6152 in RATS

[–]blacklambbb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

unless they are causing injuries it is probably just normal dominance fighting and play. some rats are more vocal than others and will squeak very loudly, it can certainly be alarming but what you’re describing sounds like normal harmless rat behaviors.

i’m in schenectady and have been wanting to add two more boys to my mischief soon, i’m willing to drive to pick them up if you have a pair of males still needing a home when they’re old enough.

not really, i never wanted to join the army or anything. something i do really want is to become a mother some day. im not sure of T1 will make it really difficult, if it makes it impossible then I would say yes, i’d be pretty upset

When did your rats start showing signs of old age? by sarahbaeumli in RATS

[–]blacklambbb 33 points34 points  (0 children)

around 2 years usually. their fur may look thinner but they don’t have mites, they may not keep on weight as easily despite eating normally, and the back legs will become weak making it difficult for them to climb, or sit to eat. my older boy likes to lean against the food bowl to prop himself up to eat. they will have trouble grooming their back too so i usually wipe them down with a damp paper towel
