    I am SO Discouraged...Need Help.

    Yeah I definitely want to get her on different meds, I don't think the current ones are helping too much. I just want her wound to heal up and have my sweet baby again :heart:

    I am SO Discouraged...Need Help.

    I believe the buprenorphrine is what she intended to use for the pain and the ace was the sedative part. But tomorrow I'm going to ask her for a different pain med. Is there one you recommend? It's probably not advised but I put one of her daughters with her and monitored them. Her daughter...

    I am SO Discouraged...Need Help.

    Long time no see!! So it's my second time getting a tumor removal done on a rat...and I am so upset. Mama had her tumor removed about 2 weeks ago. She chewed her stitches out within a day. She was on pain meds. Doc said to keep watching it, keep it clean, etc. Well of course Mama kept picking at...

    odd penile issue in young male rat

    UTI's are suuuuper painful. Please take care of your rats. I cannot tell you how many times I have borrowed money to help my rats when I had none. You can find a way to get the money. :-) Anyways I hope your boy gets better.

    Stubborn...Mites?

    @Petunia: That's odd, my blue boy Matteo had skin problems as well. @fumblesquid: All the rats were treated at the same time :) @lilspaz68: They are dry and not really fresh and kind of flaky. It's not like the other mite infestations I've seen so I'm a little confused. The blue babies have 2x...

    Stubborn...Mites?

    Yeah hopefully she will chime in. I am going to the vets on Thursday for one of my girls with a mammary tumor so I'll ask him when I go. I just feel bad, they're losing a lot of hair fast.

    Stubborn...Mites?

    Looks kind of like mites to me but nobody else has them except for the babies. There are patches of hair missing with scabs underneath. Everyone is on the same bedding. Might just be coincidence but the blue Berkshire babies have it more than the hooded babies...Revolution put on about a week ago

    Stubborn...Mites?

    So I have 7 week old babies that should be going to their new homes...except just last week they started losing hair in random patches, with scabs underneath them. Everyone has them except for mom and my other rats. I have a cage split in half with boys on bottom and mom on top with girls, and...

    To Separate or Not To Seperate

    Well just found one big scratch that was once an open wound on Teddy,under his chin and near his shoulder. Do you think that Maddox will do better with a baby instead? I have a rescue litter and I was planning on keeping a male anyways. I'm scared to put him with these guys though. I've never...

    To Separate or Not To Seperate

    They are just night time antics. The only one he is nervous around is me during the day. Again I got up last night about 3 times to screaming and had to go in there so they would stop

    To Separate or Not To Seperate

    So in a DCN I have 4 males. First there was Elliott and Teddy, the two brothers. Then Ludwig was added. Then finally Maddox. Now, Maddox was a rescue from a pet store(bad, I know. But we had a connection...). Maddox is terrified most of the time. I try to cuddle him, feed him treats, etc. I've...

    Yeah, on the girl, her other eye is a little small, but the male's other eye seems normal.

    Babies! Need advice :-)

    So, babies are great!! SO friendly and brux everytime they're out. Question is, two of them seem to only have 1 eye. It looks like it's just closed all the time. Is there anything I should do? In the meantime, here's a pic of momma and the babies! They are all dumbo, and the berkshires have...
