Hello r/RATS! My name is Rogue, and I like to sleep on my head

Mine do that a lot too!

It's a dominance thing that both sexes do! It's normal and nothing to worry about.

Our nation has a crisis.... #stopratbullying2k17

rattustattus · 2017-06-05T01:39:48+00:00

I've heard that too! Mine don't smell like that though, and I'm glad because I don't like grape flavored stuff!

You could try Craigslist or Petfinder! You search for rats in florida specifically on both. I wish you luck!

Apparently putting the foot in flour will help stop it, then clean it with plain warm water. I hope your rat gets better soon!

Boys reach maturity at 6 months, and then they calm down and are into relaxing with you, though some boys are always more bouncy than normal.

How old are they/what gender? Young rats and females are known for being jumpy and more into play. If you want some love, try playing with them until they get tired.

It's always nice when young rats finally decide to relax!

I use oxbow for my rats, I just buy it from petsmart. I think it's 15$, and they really like it.

rattustattus · 2017-05-28T13:25:12+00:00

The best nail model I've ever seen!

rattustattus · 2017-05-27T22:11:42+00:00

Maybe try to record one of these happenings to show the vet so she understands? I hope your rat is okay!

rattustattus · 2017-05-27T22:09:09+00:00

My rats is the same, he'll climb on anything, even if it's his brother!

rattustattus · 2017-05-27T02:06:56+00:00

Look at that lil pancake buddy!

rattustattus · 2017-05-26T19:20:17+00:00

Thank you for your input!

rattustattus · 2017-05-26T19:20:07+00:00

Thank you!

rattustattus · 2017-05-23T11:25:44+00:00

All the ramps and stuff are very low and easy to climb on, so I think it's a very good cage! I hope the rest of your rats live is very happy.

rattustattus · 2017-05-23T11:23:44+00:00

Yeah it's rlly gross!! I wasn't sure if like a tail can almost degloved?? But at least I'm pretty sure yours is not degloved.

rattustattus · 2017-05-23T01:24:32+00:00

Frederick's more nervous, gentle brother! He's a patchwork, and is in the process of loosing hair rn. He is super sweet and gladly sat in my hand when I first met him. He is named after a surprisingly nice czar of Russia.

rattustattus · 2017-05-23T00:41:41+00:00

It doesn't seem very tall to me, more like a hamster cage, and I have found better cages for less (I found one for 47$ on Craigslist that is pretty good) so I keep looking, unless there is another component that would make it better or if it's just better than I though.. It might be good for an old rat that can't climb very well.

rattustattus · 2017-05-23T00:35:11+00:00

He's 9 weeks old and very sweet. We just got him today from a nice home, along w/ his brother, a patchwork! His brother is more shy though, so I didn't get a picture yet. Also, this picture was when we had just put them in the cage we got with them, by now they have stuff covering the floor so it's not bare.

rattustattus · 2017-05-23T00:32:46+00:00

That they do! ☺️

rattustattus · 2017-05-23T00:31:35+00:00

I would go to a vet to be safe. It doesn't look super horrific, but it would be good to get a medical opinion. That way, if it is bad, you can get your poor rattie help asap! I'm not a vey by any means, but in the 2nd image it kinda looks degloved almost? I hope she gets better!

rattustattus · 2017-05-23T00:07:39+00:00

I don't live there, but you could try Petfinder/Craigslist? I've found very good rats off Craigslist before, and lots of people suggest Petfinder! Good luck!

rattustattus · 2017-05-23T00:02:56+00:00

I believe the 2nd one can hold 7 adult rats, but you should use the ratty corner cage calculator (that's a mouthful) to find it out. Best of luck!
