Hi guys,
I’m freaking out! I went to pick up my pet rat out of her cage to clean it (she has a vet appointment tonight) and she literally has brown bugs crawling all over her. They’re so tiny! I looked it up and I’m pretty sure it’s lice. She also is constipated I believe. I originally thought she was pregnant but it turns out I can pretty sure she’s constipated. Thank god i’m Taking her to the vet tonight, but I just wanted to know if anyone’s had this happen before? I know it’s not the bedding because I used the same bedding in my other rat cage and none of them have these bugs. I’m just panicking and freaking out because on top of the constipation and lice issue, this is going to be expensive.
