That is so heartbreaking SqueakingJellybean. She could have given him a bit more sedative. :( I went to see the exotic vet everyone recommended once because I had moved to a new city. I brought Midnight the mouse and Keno the rat to be pts. He didn't sedate either which was fine I suppose. He...

Thanks guys. :) Should I do some saline solution presses to try and lure the infection out? And Jorats it doesn't feel like a lump. It originally felt like scar tissue so I would say excess skin. If it doesn't improve with treatment, I will be sure to go see Dr. Mokler to have it looked at and...

Hey everyone. I recently brought home a young female and at first it looked like she had this weird bald spot or old scar on her throat but now it's infected. It seems like the wound would have been under her chin but the infection is lower so I'm worried. I have Baytril here so starting her on...

I don't think it is often enough to fully sedate them. Next time, before they inject with the lethal, ask the vet to pinch the back legs or gently touch the eye and look for reflexes. If there are none, then you're good for the final step. The reflexes are usually only gone after the gas has...

If anybody has ever bought one of these treat hiding toys for your dog and they are a little too dumb to figure it out. LOL Give your rats a try!

My vet gives a sedative and let's me spend some quality cuddle time with them as they fall asleep and then gas and then injection. However not a gas chamber like some people have said, they use a small mask like during surgery and line it with cloth or paper towel so the gas can't escape (the...

Sweet little girl rescued from a not-so-hungry snake. Named her Eska and she will be spayed and moved in with the boys. :)

"Potato with legs" hahaha so sad but too funny. :p

I'm so sorry to hear that our little Tabi has developed PT. :( But I'm happy to hear that she is responding to the meds! Who knows, she may just live a lot longer. Her son Squirt celebrated his second birthday yesterday (guesstimated) so she must be nearing 3 years right? According to her past...

Oh no. I hope it'll clear out quick. :(

Oh wow. I'm so sad to hear that she is having so many issues. You're taking such great care of her. She is lucky to have you and she sure is a little Trooper.

What a lovely group!

Thanks everyone. They're all sweet boys. :) We picked up two new boys yesterday. Meet Bruce and Clark! Sorry about the blurry cellphone pictures lol

Hi, it's been a while! Here are a few pics of my current boys, just for fun. Remy and Dude Basil Kilo Remy with a sour treat apparently lol Squirt and Romeo Dude chilling Hope everyone is well!

Pretty sure my rats want to eat my cat.

Wow they are gorgeous!

Oh no! I'm glad to hear the surgery went well though! Give her kisses for me. <3

Hello! I'm looking to cut some branches off of live trees to make so rat chews. I know apple orchards are safe, but what about other woods such as maples, firs, pines, aspen, etc? Does anyone know anything about this? lol I heard cherry wood is unsafe? Also, is it better to freeze or bake...

I started him on Baytril and Doxy. Is there anything else I should be doing? He doesn't like it being touched. He seems in pain, so I've been giving him children's ibuprofen.

Haha I know his testicles are massive. :laugh:
