Michael is 5 months and extemely naughty.
I admit that due to disastrous damage he put on my properties I no longer love him.
He is living with his sibling in cage sized 33x21x42 inches full of expensive toys. The cage is in my bedroom. I took them to exotic vet regularly and spend a fortune so they can get only the best. (Michael actually need many cares he is too naughty). Their food are controlled. Except lab pellet their other foods are human graded quality and I carefully select only finest ingredients.
Im at the point that I cant tolerate his naughty and disastrous behaviors. I wont explain how he destroys thing as it will take long. But he knows I dont like what he does so he often does sneakily or wait til I have good mood. This is the real reason why I am angry.
Now Im seperating him from his sibling and put him in 24x19x19 cage. The cage is planned to be placed in living room where I rarely spend my time in and prevent him from destroy anything. Im thinking to find a new home for him otherwise he will have to live alone until he died. And no I will not get a buddy for him as getting new unknown guy exposes me to other behavioral risks as well.
The problem is Im living in the country where new graduates averagely get monthly salary 400-500 usd. One regular visit to exotic vet in private hospital averagely costed approx 40 usd, just regular visit. Majority of those who raise rats here house them in small cage ( They think 24x12x12 cage is big enough to house many rats). Some use hamster cage, bird cage, even bucket. Average temp now is 40+ celsius and humidity 60-70+.
His home at the moment is controlled to be 24-28 celsius and humidity 45-60+ with average around 55.
If I post him online I have no way to know how new owner will raise him. I dont think I can find my acquaintance who will adopt him.I want to know your (those who are not first owners) story about rats you adopt or rescue. How well they adjust to new home and new owners. I open to your advice and comments as long as they are polite.
Thank you.
