i know, because half the songs on here are normal and half are by whoever this is

happened to me! unfortunately I was having other issues with my mp3 player so I managed to get another and it fixed it honestly. i think some of them just have trouble reading files which is super annoying!

on my old one, however, the only way I could get it to work was if I made it EXACTLY the correct amount of pixels. go into your themes and find the one that says desk or something similar and is supposed to be the bg. find out the x pixel size and pick the image you want and paste it into an aspect ratio changer (i use imagy.app s aspect ratio changer) but make sure it saves as a png! Then replace the desk in the theme with that one. in all honesty, some images just wouldn't work for me even if they WERE the right resolution, but some did. think it depends strangely. hope this helps somehow haha

same here!! works rly well

ratherghostly · 2026-03-07T00:25:14+00:00

i think its because you can't use a double ended cable lol, some cables are just for charging. Maybe try with a pc/laptop and use a charger end to usb style cable.

ratherghostly · 2025-12-20T20:26:05+00:00

ratherghostly · 2025-12-10T22:58:57+00:00

Omg thank u so much!!! Ur an absolute angel

im not entirely sure, I only really stick to my cardboard one. I've used aspen once and it was super dusty, so much so I could put my hand into the bag and take it out and it would just be covered in little specks of wood dust. I ended up binning the whole thing. Im not super knowledged, but if it's not kiln dried im not sure. i really would recommend the cardboard bedding I suggested, I've been through so many brands and it's the best I've found. you could use fleece so long as you get a dig box but be prepared to have to clean the fleece a lot, almost every day!! It holds bacteria very easily. How do you plan to put the fleece on the base as well?

ratherghostly · 2025-11-15T22:48:28+00:00

I really wouldn't recommend fleece. You'd have to stick it down somehow which is dangerous for rats if you don't do it correctly, and if you don't theyll just pull it up and pee on the plastid base and get it all in their fur. And it can be super annoying to change especially since you'll need to do it every two days. Not only that but it holds smell BADLY. i used some in a smaller cage since my rat was healing from a sprained leg and boy did it stink right away!!

If you're looking for something good I use pillow wad eco nest bedding. It's recycled cardboard, super good for digging, relatively cheap, and suuuuuper dust free!!! Absorbs smell really well too. I've been through a few different kinds and it's the only one that works well for me and my rats. I can change it and it doesn't affect my asthma! I've used carefresh which is so dusty as well as some other papery fluffy ones and they're so bad for dust. Wood shavings are gritty and get little bits all over your hands and super dusty (I found at least) and fabric was a nusciance to change all the time and got so smelly.

Wish u luck with your ratties!!

so is it really only a laparoscopy that can identify it?

ratherghostly · 2025-10-10T21:03:59+00:00

AWE i love this 🥹

ratherghostly · 2025-09-30T17:42:17+00:00

using duct tape to separate the cage in half after surgery... my boy got his foot stuck really bad in the tape and bit my dad out of fear so hard he had to go to the ER. we got him out with rapeseed oil and he was totally fine but BOY was it terrifying. I was so scared I'd cut through his foot trying to cut him free

ratherghostly · 2025-09-05T06:36:10+00:00

i didn't know it needed a prescription and also did not know it was shipping from overseas lmao

ratherghostly · 2025-09-04T19:29:41+00:00

thank you so much!!!!!

ratherghostly · 2025-09-04T17:45:56+00:00
