    Should I get my grieving rat a new cage mate?

    I think it's really beautiful and loving of you to look out for your boy like this. A friend may help him perk up some, but I find that elderly rats have a harder time accepting new company since they're not as mobile such as your boy, though that's only if I'm not misreading with mention of the...

    Thank you for the warm welcome! :) They are indeed albino, but my camera isn't very dependable in quality which is why I hope to pick up a good one soon, but naturally they're on the expensive side. It's a shame that this variety is overlooked so often, but thank you so much, I hope they can...
