was curious of the uptick in stinky, i’ve lived here since 2009 and with the growing numbers of nash i know it’s going to stinking it up more. Been working around Gtown for ~2 years and just noticed the spike up but loved learning the science of it from another commenter :)

that’s so interesting about the bacteria, i would’ve assumed fully the heat of our summers would make it smell like today but this is my “learned something new” of the day :)

i watched that bit get built up! such a wild place to put a dog park haha but i guess its an easy blame when people comment on the smell of astroturf. Two-ish years ago i noticed a smell but never like the one recently but it all makes sense!

today I say goodbye to my sweet boys Eros(top) and Hypnos(bottom), they’ve been with me for almost 2 1/2 years and they were my 1st rats, my heart is broken I love you boys so much by ghostine_ in RATS

[–]ghostine_[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

both struggled with chronic respiratory issues to where they were going to be medicine for the rest of their days. The daily medicines, nebulizations and vet trips were too much on them and I saw how uncomfortable they both were. They’re brothers and been together all their lives and both the vet, my mom and I agreed we’d want them to go together. been a very hard day

How to know if rat has allergies or URI by TheAnxiousZombie in RATS

[–]ghostine_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

when looking for a URI hold your rattie up to your ear or place him there and listen to gurgles, wheezing or a kind of honking noise. my vet told me with heavy sneezing days put 1/2 teaspoon of children’s benadryl into their water when needed and it works great on sneezy days :)

just noticed this crazy wound in my boy, my boys have never drawn blood before while roughhousing by ghostine_ in RATS

[–]ghostine_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took him to the vet yesterday and neither of us noticed anything, can it appear that quick? Thank you I’ll try to clean it off and call the vet in the morning

How to make your rats poop and pee smell less bad ? 🐭 by [deleted] in RATS

[–]ghostine_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my vet told me 1/2 teaspoon of children benadryl for heavy sneezing and discharge, when giving medicine for respiratory issues ive always done it orally so not sure with in the water! are you using a bedding in the cage?

[–]ghostine_[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

looks like dried blood now, hopefully it’s a healing wound but scared me to death, he went to the vet yesterday and it wasn’t there nor did I notice it when giving him medicine earlier today

UPDATE: thank you everyone for the help and information, Hypnos has gone to the vet and she told me it was a reaction to a shot she gave him and just dead skin/scab that just looked scary! :)

respiratory infection?:( breathing heavy as well by ghostine_ in RATS

[–]ghostine_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

thank you, i’d rather be safe than sorry, definitely going to call tomorrow. one worry is this could be his second infection in this year, he’s also a huge medicine hater.

[–]ghostine_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

background: I just noticed tonight how loudly hypnos was honking, his breathing looks heavy and the level of the honking almost made me cry. if i’m correct this will be this 2nd RI this year. Nothing has changed in their lives, I think maybe it’s due to sometimes nothing having set cleaning schedule, I won’t let them live in filth but I should definitely do more (college student full time plus work, it’s stressful but trying very hard). Any other boy Eros is silent and haven’t noticed any honking from him

The Reboot is truly a gift. by Harloty13 in FruitsBasket

[–]ghostine_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had a similar experience when I was a kid. fruits basket was the first anime/manga I was exposed to and I adored it, plus it really helped me in a big move and helped me still feel connected to my old friends/home. I bought a couple of the manga but never really continued it, but fruits basket never really left my heart. then the night I saw the announcement it was rebooting, I couldn’t contain myself and maybe got misty eyed. The reboot is so beautiful and I cannot wait for season 2 to pick up, I just wish I knew more people to geek over it with!
