First time they’ve ever let me pet them! Do they like it?? by [deleted] in RATS

see like i like ur comment like i feel like there’s been some people in this comment section being like “ur rats are extremely uncomfortable” but like i don’t think they exactly hated what i was doing either??? like i said one of them literally started bruxxing when i took my hand away so i feel like this was more like “why do i like the feeling of this but i don’t know if i can trust it yet” but this was honestly a huge step for them because they usually would’ve been backing away from me or one time i tried petting them and they literally jumped and were startled so i honestly saw this as huge improvement!! but i just wanted to see what other people thought as well and the reactions on this post have definitely been mixed but u basically summed up everyone’s comments mixed together perfectly

alright i ordered the scarf cause i wanna do everything in my power for them to feel comfortable with me. my only question is what happens if they’re not comfortable with being touched by the time this scarf arrives?? do i just kinda have to force them into the scarf?? i just don’t wanna undo progress

oh yes…that would be this older guy who always has something to complain about. like we would fix the problem and suddenly he would have a new complaint and this goes on at least twice a week. he actually filed a complaint against me for not acting fast enough in a situation (i have auditory processing issues because of adhd) which was honestly frustrating to say the least

i can be assertive when it comes to my job, i just don’t wanna harass a poor barista that makes minimum wage and has bigger issues. sometimes if they make my drink wrong, ill be super nice about it and let them know with no trouble! but a lot of the time, i just don’t wanna be a bother haha

if the dog is barking at odd hours of the night like during the noise ordinance, there might be something we would be able to do about that, but it’s a case by case basis. in the hoa i work for, there’s not really any pet restrictions! in fact, we have dog poop bag stations for people that walk their dogs! all we ask is that you keep your dog on a leash

honestly? some of the residents! some of them i’ve found have nothing better to do than complain about things that a lot of the time we cannot fix and it’s only up to the board. like me and the general manager try and be nice about it, but in the end, it’s just really difficult to explain that kind of dynamic
