Hi, I was looking on the pet smart website and I saw they have holiday themed chews for small pets but I can’t find the ingredients anywhere. It’s supposed to be rat safe but we all know that’s not always the case. I was wondering if anyone on here knows what ingredients it might have. I called...

I dressed up for Halloween with Jack as a chef and Remy from ratatouille. My school is having a Facebook competition and I would appreciate it if y’all would check it out. Thanks https://www.facebook.com/CentralCoastCollege/posts/2596481443731318

(Jack in the vet office) So Jack has a respiratory infection and I was prescribed .33ml doxycycline for 7 days which I have read on previous threads is not enough. The whole bottle is a total of 5ml and expires 11/30/2020. I was wondering if I could give him the whole bottle?

How much Oxbow do I need to give per rat? Up until a couple of weeks ago I had been feeding 3tbs of Kaytee fiesta mix per rat and it would last 2-3 days but ever since I transitioned to Oxbow it only lasts a day, maybe a day and a half. I still give 3tbs per rat and some veggies sprinkled in...

My boy Jack loves it when I “share” my milkshakes with him.

My boy Jack has been an only child for about 2 months and I can’t find him a friend. Originally I was going to get two boys from an oops litter his cage mate had but all the pups and mom got sick the week I was supposed to bring them home. My teacher (who’s friend I was getting them from) said...

Hi again, so a couple of days ago (Monday?) I was feeding Jack from my hand but I had to go do something and started to pull my hand away slowly and he started to act frantic. He shoved as much food in his mouth as he could and started shrieking. I was startled since I’ve never heard him shriek...

I’m pretty sure this is normal but I find it weird and adorable when Jack pancakes. First he lowers his hind legs all the way down to the floor drags them for a second and then tucks his arms under his body and half closes his eyes so it looks like he’s squinting. Eventually he’ll fully close...

I’m not sure if this is the place to post this but I don’t know where else to post it. And it’s a bit humerus after the fact and it can serve as a reminder. Anyway here goes, yesterday I felt betrayed by my own child. I was laying down watching YouTube vids with said child and he started...

I got my first rat about a month ago. I got my boy Jack from my teacher because she bought him and a few others so the second year students could draw blood from them and the first years (me) could practice administering oral and optic medication (water and eye drops). The first day she brought...

Backstory: ok so as you can probably tell i'm a first time rat parent with no experience. I got my boy Jack from my teacher because she bought him and a few others so the second year students could draw blood from them and the first years (me) could practice administering oral and optic...
