Awwwr... rattie pics always make me miss my boys! Hadta give em up when I moved in with my gramparents... Theyre adorable. ^^

Aww sorry you had to give them up ;; and agreed!

Ratties are by far my favorite small animal to own ;w; They are sweethearts...you made me wanna get one again..I'm a spoiler though and so don't have the money to spoil one right now ;n;

Yeah I had to build my first cage till i could afford a nice huge one. The rats cost little to nothing, but the materials and vet bills are horrid ;;

I have a pair of girl rats.

They look so cute.
Mine just like to beg treats and go "Ack! No hugs!!" when I try to pick them up these days.

-Badger-

I had girls once :D they were much the same haha I'm 100% in love with the more cuddly boys now.

Ahh! Real monsters reference, my childhood!

I loved these pictures. ;-;

Thanks! and I know that show was one of the best, I used to have a Krumm Plushie, is eyes were detachable they got so dirty with me rolling them around haha

and thank ya!

Ohmygod.

Eeeeeee!

I had a mouse problem in my apartment. The new cat took care of most of them but I tried despertly to save them when I could.

I like the little guys too.

Wild mice and rats will get me on top of the nearest chair XD domestic rats are a whooole different story to me. I had a cat that used to hunt them in droves that and voles,squirrels and birds...all of which he never mind sharing D:

I like cats more but rats can be so cute.

I'm a cat person myself but I'm not allowed them where I live. I find rats oddly similar, cuddly but independent and smart to.

Ratties! I love rats, they are so cute

Agreed! :D and thanks!

Makes me miss my little girl Jellybean, she loved watermelon flavored jellybeans, Jelly Belly style.

Aww and rats are just about jellybean shaped to, that's adorable! Sorry you dont still have her ;;

Had to give her up, turns out I was extremely allergic

Nyah, I have dumbo Rattie named Rusko! :3 He's black and white and very sweet. ^_^ I love rats. :)

Looked for him in your scraps and holy wow hes so pretty! I love the white blaze face <3! I fear getting highwhites due to megacolon but they are very very cute ;;

That's an old picture. X3 He's such a sweetie. :3

What is megacolon by the way..? owo

If I didn't have three cats/max pet capacity I would love a pet rat - what cuties!

Yeah I hear ya, I'm at rat capacity myself, I only have two hands so petting time i just open the door and kinda hug them to me and pet them with two each hand, and the odd one out worms his way in till someone else is the odd one haha I couldn't handle anymore even thou my cage can.

I love the text, it's cute and gives the pics more character. :)

Thanks :D if there's one thing they are is characters so I tend to bubble on about how amazing they act at times XD

EEEEEEEEK A RAT!
You should totally cuddle them and love them to bits. :3

Oh noes! and I do, I do XD !

Though I have to admit, I'm a sucker for dumbos. ;-;

They are very cute, my Rook has the lowest (so imo) best dumbo ears the but normal ears are shaped like little pink petals to me i cant resist them ether D:

It's so true. DXX

So adorable<3
I just got a new little boy recently since my old boy passed on.
I kinda want to get another boy or two. What's your secret to adding new boys to your group?

He's so cute!!!! I love his markings and you should defiantly get a new boy. Good news is he's young so you shouldn't have any issues at all ! Younger is kinda better for intros since they don't feel threatened by such little guys, intros for two adult males...that's a scary one.

Just quarantine the new baby (make sure to check for rat lice!) and when that's up and your sure hes safe put them in the tub and let them sniff around, watch them like a hawk, if you have to leave the tub for any reason take one with you. A little rough play is normal but the dom should but pen him down and well...pee on him and all is well haha just marking to show whos who. If anyone's puffing up and/or rearing up get them separate and try later. and if they sniff and ignore each other thats a great intro :D

Power grooming and rough housing are normal for rats which looks alot like fighting but its a no blood no foul rule. If they bite and theres blood get them separated D:

Its abit stressful the first night they are together but make sure theirs many hiding places in the cage for them to get away from each other, I've done 4 intros to my groups and ever had a issue.

AHHH BABIES

wow this makes me miss my girls so much, they passed away while I was away from home :"C

You've got some adorable boys there!

oh! they are so cute!
