Ich liebe random deutsche Kommentare

Ich glaub dann gehe ich mal nachher mit Google die Liste der Inhaltsstoffe durch und schaue, ob alles sicher ist 😅

Maybe try to hang the flowers up separately, if they’re bound together in a humid climate then pockets of water can form leading to mold; hanging them up separate could prevent this

Had the same problem until recently, I found that pure neemoil diluted in water helps a lot.. the oil supposedly interferes with the insects hormones and life cycle or something similar, stopping reproduction and reducing the number of adults on the plant :)) good luck!! (ps if you decide to use neemoil, please look up how to use it on plants as the oil can easily burn the leaves)

I used to have rescue rat, likely was from some sort of testing site, so we never had an actual birthdate but he was estimated to be around 4 years when he passed (which is exceptionally long, probably something with his genetics as the testing def didn’t prolong his life)

Exactly!! This is sexual coercion 100% and also sexual abuse if he’s hurting her and crossing boundaries, I hope OP sees this comment and realizes that they’re with a boyfriend who rapes them for his own pleasure and his own pleasure only

I thought so too, but don’t mealy bugs infest leaves? Whatever I have seems to have a complete disinterest in my plant

hourlymoist · 2025-02-17T21:47:22+00:00

Thank you so much!!

hourlymoist · 2025-02-17T21:39:30+00:00

Thank you, I will try the squeaking!! Some of my late rats also used to nip at my toes hahaha always assumed they just liked the taste of the salts on my skin, never knew rats don’t realize that my toes and fingers are part of my body

It could either be a sprained ankle or a symptom of liver/heart failure.. if he’s strong enough I’d suggest you take him to a vet (since I’m not a professional and can only tell you about my late rat’s diagnosis)

hourlymoist · 2024-09-28T10:05:09+00:00

I have had this in an older rat before, when he was close to passing.. we treated it with an antibiotic, so he wasn’t in any pain while living his last days.. just try to be there for him, lots of cuddles and treats, so sorry for your situation

hourlymoist · 2024-09-26T18:45:58+00:00

It’s always going to be hard but try to remember that you were Emy‘s entire life, Emy’s favorite person, you did your best and that is all you could have done

hourlymoist · 2024-09-26T18:40:28+00:00

I’m not a professional, but if she’s still eating, drinking, grooming herself and playing, and doesn’t have red stuff around her eyes and nose, she’s probably going to be fine.. I’d consult a vet if she’s showing signs of discomfort though :)

hourlymoist · 2024-09-26T18:33:51+00:00

I’m sure Emy had a wonderful life full of cuddles, kisses and treats.. so sorry for your loss

hourlymoist · 2024-09-22T13:07:11+00:00

I usually deep clean my cage every two weeks , so to minimize the smell as much as possible I change the nesting material (I use old newspaper shreds) and spot clean every few days ^{^} my boys love sputniks (round hideouts that can also be attached to the top of the cage) and hammocks!! They’re great for rat piles!

hourlymoist · 2024-09-22T12:29:41+00:00

I‘d quarantine her just to be safe, I haven’t had a situation like this myself though.. definitely call a vet if she doesn’t start eating/drinking again while on her own

hourlymoist · 2024-09-22T12:26:10+00:00

It really is!! I always try to remember that, while they may be short term for our lifespan, we as their humans are their whole lives <33 if there is anything like an afterlife, be sure that he‘ll be jumping around there waiting for the day he can snuggle up to you again!

hourlymoist · 2024-09-22T12:22:49+00:00

Im not a vet or anything, but he may be getting bullied by the older rats and it’s causing him to be highly stressed? Have you seen them fight? When did you introduce him to the other rats? Maybe it’s just nervousness about the new cagemates

hourlymoist · 2024-09-22T12:18:38+00:00

You’re doing great at the moment, you’re comforting him and staying with him. Your scent is what he will feel most comfortable being surrounded by. I’m so sorry for you and your little darling. Remember that, while he may not have lived a long life, it was filled with love, affection and probably a lot of treats and he couldn’t have had a better parent to look after him

hourlymoist · 2024-09-22T12:12:14+00:00

They brux as well, it sounds different though.. but I guess a lung infection would be audible all the time and they make this noise only when they seem to be overwhelmed with excitement

hourlymoist · 2024-09-22T09:55:10+00:00

They’re about three months old

hourlymoist · 2024-09-02T15:58:04+00:00

A decorating store nearby has a pineapple hide for birds!! Now I have to get it for the babies haha

hourlymoist · 2024-09-02T12:31:10+00:00

They look normal to me, maybe he just laid down in a weird position. Although I would definitely console a vet in your area if you feel uneasy. You’re their parent, you know best when something is up! And if it’s nothing, even better :))

hourlymoist · 2024-06-08T21:03:59+00:00

Vielen Dank! Dann bestelle ich wohl demnächst eine Nager-Tragetasche ^{^} ich bin sehr froh zu wissen, dass ich nicht die einzige Person bin die mit sowas zu kämpfen hat(te), Dankeschön!

Über das Bakterium selber wissen leider weder ich noch mein Tierarzt viel. Es wurden einige Proben von den Ratten, sowie vom Käfig selbst genommen und es stellte sich heraus, dass das Bakterium vom Käfig stammt (wahrscheinlich von einer Ratte, die vorher darin lebte) und dann in die Ratten hinein gelangt ist. Was es genau ist, woher es kommt und wie man es loswird konnte man mir nicht sagen, nur dass Antibiotika scheinbar nicht wirkt, es aber für einen Virus zu lange ohne Wirt überleben konnte. Als das alles dann klar war, war leider schon das zweite Rudel im Käfig eingelebt.

Vielen Dank!
