Lightweights!!!! My largest was Trajan...1080 grams at the largest. Did he have a wieght problem? Oh yeah! Problem was...he was alpha, very ERY alpha, and any reduction in food, meant the others...would get less food and Trajan would truck right on. The vet suggested we put him in...

Thank you so much for the birthday wishes everybody! I had a wonderful 9th 29th birthday!! Catherine

Ensure makes a PUDDING? Oh, they would love that! We frequently give them ensure treats, so when it comes spiked with meds, they aren't as suspicious.... Pasta, with or without sauce, cooked or uncooked. Peas, squash, whatever we are eating..... Catherine

I think I should check with the vet tomorrow, and then see about getting them a special house, and that we should probably go get them before something bad happens. Like I said...there is no way they will fit in with either of my colonies, so if someone wants the weird trio....we can make it...

Three wheels! Talk about mousie luxury!

What sort of enclosure are you using?...Keep in mind it needs to be big enough for two boy ratties and the tiny boy mouse.... I really figure that if they were going to eat that mouse, or assassinate him...they would have done it by now...instead they treat him like a tiny bro.

Just out of curiosity...have you been tested by an allergist to see exactly what you are allergic too? The one where they inject you with tons of things so you know what reacts? A lot of doctors hear "rats" and jump to the conclusion that the evil evil rats HAVE to be a problem, ignoring what...

I totally forgot about Martins cages! Thanks.. We have a Houdini rat.....aka the Mama Doodles. Mama feels the whole house is hers, and everyone in it subject to her. She managed to control her colony AND the other one a long hall and two rooms away. The other colony used to always have...

The rats are about 1 year old...don't know about Mr. Mouse..... Nobody at the spca seemed to get how insane that was....and that the rats totally treated him like an equal, he even bullied them a bit. Chaz and I made sure they got it....what typically happens in this situation...but our SPCA...

Our plan involved keeping them together....and when the mouse passed then introducing him to other rats...never before...since the odds of other rats taking a similar shine to Mr. Mouse are pretty miniscule.... But if anyone else is interested in this odd trio...let me know! I'll give you the...

Hoping for input on something very peculiar seen today at our local SPCA... This Wednesday, Mycroft went into cardiac arrest and died immediately....he was our blind alpha...and two of the four ladies in the colony are distraught, the others merely upset.since the other boys in the colony are...

I live in an allegedly haunted house...sometimes I tell myself that it is an old house and it makes noises..but.. I can also be sort of sensitive about it...a few times people have tried to get paranormal investigators in here, but I get along with whatever also lives here, and I don't want to...

I thought I would add a couple of wheel tail pics...this is Rilian....when he runs during out time....he curls his tail up! Cute! [center:15uv6eph][/center:15uv6eph] [center:15uv6eph][/center:15uv6eph]

What a gorgeous lady! And no doubt she is looking forward to the new Wheel of Time book out at the end of the month...to widdle on.

The one that consistently uses their litter box.

Congrats to you for starting to go veg.... I miss beef, I do...far more than the other meats for some reason. But for me there are many, many reasons to be a vegetarian. From the personal health benefits to not contributing to the cruelty that is the commercial meat industry and overall karma...

Frankie Goes To Hollywood

We use granite rocks...we put them in places they can't avoid like igloo entrances, under water bottle, etc...They can also be used to hold towels down and can be put in the dishwasher to make sure they are nice and clean....we make sure they don't have sharp edges or corners. They seem to...

Its true! And they are all so unique! So many happy memories!

Yes, yes, Trajan really liked his food. Not the most flattering angle.
