    When I was a teen I had rats and they were such lovely intelligent creatures. It was the 90's and if you wanted info the most reliable place was books and the books were very simplified. The internet existed but it wasnt so common for everyone to have it and even less common for each member of a home to have their own access. It is so nice to see such a variety of commercial treats toys and housing for these amazing creatures as well as some of the things we used back then like tissue boxes. I also worked in a pet store for a while and people would choose gerbils and hamsters over rats for their young children. Rats would have been a better choice to be honest

    absolutely love them. they are so cute!! A few tips for you though...Bowels are always better. If you use fleece blankets instead of bedding it will minimize the sneezing. and save you money. That's what most collector's use. rats very easily get raspatory infections and using the fleece can stop that. or at least slow it down. also, please be very careful when introducing them. people say they have thick skin and I have done it enough to know that they do not. I have owned a lot of them. the most I've had at once was 13. And believe it or not the females are harder to introduce then the males. So good luck. again, I love your babies

She loved watching him but she was a little afraid of him. She hated his tail! But she would pet him if I held him. He was such a good boy. Everyone should give them a try. They are very smart, friendly, affectionate and very clean! So much fun to watch and interact with. Excellent pet for children and apartment dwellers and relatively inexpensive (compared to cats and dogs).

    I bought my young daughter 2, baby rats, and I had no idea how in love I was about to become with these rats. They lived to be about 3 years old each. I thought I would die when they died. They are the sweetest, most entertaining pets. But not a long life span.

    I had a Sprout! She was a black & white hooded & unfortunately left for Rainbow Bridge in March rather unexpectedly. She led me to two babies in a rescue & I got them a couple weeks later. My grey & white girl (Moxie Blue) is not a dumbo & not a roan but they are very similar! Her sister is Magpie! They turned 5 months old on 7/8 & were spayed last week! (Great bday present, huh?). Try filling your water bottle all the way to the top of the neck of the bottle & that may help stop drips. I read somewhere that that helps prevent drips because it creates a better vacuum or something. Also, I take it your tap water doesn’t contain fluoride! That would be so nice. I have to buy bottled water since our water has fluoride in it! I’ll post a pic of my babies on your IG! Look forward to following these cuties!

    Hi this is the first video I’ve seen from you and I was so happy that you take care of rats. My name is penny and I’m 10 years old and have allergies to a lot of furry animals so rats are one of the only furry pets I can have and I’m so glad of that now rats are my favorite animals. I moved recently and now I live in New Zealand but I had to say goodbye to my 3 rats I used to have 5 but one of them (her name was coco) died from a brain tumor and there sister (a blind rat named butterscotch) died from old age. It was really hard to leave them but now there with one of my close friends. I’m hopping to get some more rats when we are residents of New Zealand. That’s all I’m going to subscribe and I just wanted to share my story😊❤️🐀

    I had my first rat called Ruby she was an albino and she lived to be almost 4. In fact she passed away on her birthday. I played with her every single day she was super healthy and had a sister called Nutella who was a hooded dark brown rat. Ruby was my heart rat. I lost her to cataracts when I was 5, I got her when I was 2 and a half! She was so precious I remember coming home and finding out she passed away in her sleep. She was blind and deaf if you don’t know what cataracts is. She passed away shortly after that happened. I don’t have any photos of her but she was so gorgeous and was really comfortable with me and whenever I opened the door she would run to me and jump onto my arm. Love you ruby! (And Nutella)
