What is pica? And she only prescribed it after the original opening of the incision should I stop giving it to her? The vet told me to give it to her three times daily

They closed the original incision with those disovable stitches I had to drop her off due to them not having any availability open on Saturday. They restitched her up with three layers gave me buphnex pain killer to give her along side SMZ antibiotics and metacam and then gave her staples which...

Alright yeah I decided against that in the end as well no way I could get to sit still enough and I was too afraid of it to get in her wound and cause worse damage. I've tried body wraps and failed she just squeezes out of them the best thing I've been able to do is just is just go on watch with...

I took Salli in today for a tumor removal everything was fine she mostly been sleeping but I just checked on her again and her whole back leg is a huge gapping bleeding hole she's completely opened it up. I don't know what to do. I do have some new skin liquid bandage can I use that to close the...

Yeah but pit bulls get bad rap all the time though people just kinda let them blow over if it's not directly involved with them but rats there hasn't been much people can say about then disregarding the wild cousins. It seems like EVERYONE is buzzing about how a kid died to a rat bite now

We are totally freaking out over this mess. Specially being so close to California. As a rescue with a ton of adoption events coming up this isn't good at all I hope it blows over but so far no we've been trying to take the approach "adopts don't shop" to help keep down the surrenders apparently...

Yeah we have a sign I wish I'd know for certain if there would be a plug in there because I though bringing a DVD player or electronic picture frame to do slides with all of our successful adoptions we will have rats there trying for most of them. I like the appropriate cage idea just set up so...

Wow you got bunch of cuties there it looks like they are so happy in their loving caring home. Totally dig the decorations too looks like a lot fun even if I'm not a rat lol :P

Yeah I'd love the pamphlet! That would be most helpful trying to find an in between will enough info or discouragingly too much is actually harder then I thought it would be

So its been confirmed we got our first booth at a huge adoption event! We all are a little stressed because so many coming back to back but I need IDEAS any help of what I should do or have on the booth? We want to do some pamphlets on the correct and harmful bedding of rats but other then that...

Yeah we have a lot of adoption events going on in this area in march and its exciting. 8 just got adopted out. And I see people posting on our Facebook page they've totally fallen in love with rats and people are becoming so much more knowledgeable about their care. It is a really good feeling...

My own personal ratties I'm only up to 15 but taking in two more hopefully by next week but I will deff post some pics of the rescue ratties soon. Thankfully the rat community out here is slowly getting bigger so most of them have been set up in quarantine homes and foster homes. I'm still new...

Sorry I haven't been on in forever it feels like. I took the time I stepped back from this amazing forum to become more involved with rat rescues in my area. I've recently became part of the major one in the Reno Nevada area. I think I was so blind to the needs of rats from being neglected...

Awe lucky almost looks like he was posing for the camera very cute!

My very first rat was like that as well after about a week he was all over the place. Sometimes getting them a buddy helps as well :) exploring is much more confident when you have a wing man

Man that sucks but I completely understand due to my boys back story they always seem to be getting sick I hope they have a very quick recovery!!

Bobo is getting so old but I think he takes a lot of comfort having a big family :)

I would probably treat for mites just be on the safe side. If there is no change or it get worse then you at least ruled out one of the more common ones

Welcome to the shack! I have some rats from the same sort of situation. It takes a lot of patience but extremely rewarding :)

With her living on a 16th floor wouldn't a kitten be more suited to her? It wouldn't need to be walked and is alot more independent then a dog with her issues if she falls and have to go to the doctors for a couple of days as long as there is food and water a cat can make it a dog depends on its...
