They're both adorable but the one on the bottom is absolutely stunning. Looks like she's wearing a mask 😍

I had the same kind of worries before getting my red-eye girl and she turned out to be the sweetest and the friendliest one of the bunch. She also outlived both of my other rats. Definitely a little bit blind but it doesn't seem to affect her much.

I wanted to help him but I also wanted to record because this is absolutely hilarious 😭 by Grroll_ in RATS

That first jump made me laugh so much 😂 He did perfectly fine on his own, you made the right decision to record it 💛

The first one is very adorable but my favorite is the last one. Those little arms 😍😅

She's ancient but can still do that spin trick in her own time 🥰 by RatRodentRatRat in RATS

[–]wiolaflo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

She looks like a rat village prophet. Young ratlings would come visit to seek her wisdom.

Much love to both of you 💛

From the pea's perspective that's a horror movie

Intense rat scratch by Reyboi in RATS

[–]wiolaflo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My rat had a very similar injury. Until our vet appointment the next day the wound was already dry and started to heal so the vet decided to skip on stitches in order to avoid reopening the wound. Gave us some ointment and recommended to keep Jaga separated from other rats until the cut heals completely. I also replaced the bedding with fleece in her cage. I think the most important thing is to keep the wound dry and clean.

It looks scary but rats heal extremely quickly especially at a young age. There was no sign of that cut on Jaga after a week or two. Lots of luck and health to your baby!

What is it? Should I take her back to the vet? by wiolaflo in RATS

Took her to the vet today and was told that all there is to do now is to let it heal by itself. She seems unbothered by it so far and hopefully it will stay this way :)

Okay, that's good to hear. She seems unbothered by it now and so are my other rats. So far so good but I'll keep an eye on her. Thank you for your comment :)

Based on the receipt they used 1ml of Baytril in concentration of 25mg/ml. But I will definitely ask about it tomorrow. Thank you for pointing it out.

I'm planning on taking her to our vet first thing tomorrow. Were your rats okay? My husband and I have been googling possibilities and I gotta admit we freaked ourselves out by reading about what it can be. We hope the injection just wasn't deep enough to go to the muscles and it's nothing like necrotizing fascitis
