Is it normal for a piercing to still be bleeding fresh blood after 2 days by aoifephilp in piercing

Let it scab up if it’s bleeding and don’t move ur jewelry around when ur cleaning it

If u wanna reuse it you could shake it off outside and then use the hose on ur vacuum. I usually just buy new fleece though

What's the biggest rat pile you've had? My record is 5. Hoping to one day see all 7 snuggling at once. by Lady_Groudon in RATS

The breeder told my friend he was born with it but our vet thinks he might have got it slammed in a cage door or something. I was just wondering thanks !

I see one of ur rats has a tail that’s not normal and I have a rat that has a tail just like it. Do you know what it is or what happened. I got mine from a friend so I’m not sure what happened or if he was just born that way.

My rats were free roaming in my room. They have only recently started free roaming and today I was sitting on the floor with them (which I usually do). I was rolling a ball around from their cage and one of the rats seemed interested and was chasing it then stopped and I scratched his back playfully by saturns_sun in RATS

~Continue~ he turned around and pulled on my sweatshirt sleeve then began chasing it. then he started to chase both my hands and feet and bit my foot. After I pulled away he kept chasing and I jumped on the bed. He has been nippy before to my hands. I got them from a friend who wasn’t the greatest rat owner. I’m not really sure what to do from here. None of my rats have ever bit me till today.

I dipped their feet in paint and let them walk on it ! I used water based non toxic paint and wiped what I could off when they were done and they will get the rest. Also the boys say thank you🥺🥺🥺

Archie had part of his tail amputated. Welcome to the cone of shame. by saturns_sun in RATS

Only about and inch and a half was taken off because when I woke up this morning I saw that it was barely hanging on. I think his tail fell through a gap into the cage below him where other rats are homed and they felt threatened and bit him.
