Hello last night my husband and I came home and found one of our babies(Uno) (Disturbing warning) eating the body of his brother (Nico.) After the initial shock and anger we realized (Nico) had died of something else and that the brother (Uno) eating him was a natural response to death and...

I promise I wasn't holding him tight he was just wiggling lol!

My young boy!

I'm pretty sure you have a girl! From what I can see it looks like a slit and not a tube shape. The boy I just took in is about four-six weeks old and uh you can certainly tell he's a boy

Yep! This was a petco. Sounds like we had a very similar experience. I am so sorry that happened to you too. I worked with these people so I trusted them and it was a huge mistake. Worst part is they got mad about it when I quit over it! I bet if someone had done that to their dog or cat they...

Everyone say hello to Saitama! He is half hairless and half Rex which is why his fur looks so odd. I took him in after gizmos passing when I felt emotionally ready will be introducing him to my oldest male soon to see how they do! Wish me luck! Albie has already recovered and been introduced to...

Sad news everyone and I am livid. The petstore I worked at when I saved Albie and Gizmo the sick boy and his brother transfered me to a different store in the area because of a shortage. I told them about the sore on gizmo's foot and they told me to bring him in, sign him over since I had...

Update! His brother is at the vet for a foot infection he got at the pervious petstore and is being treated. I think it was bumblefoot or some other infection of the toe from the sanitary conditions. original sick boy however is growing, hydrated, his fur is so much healthier and he is doing...

Update! Been moved to a much larger holding cage as he is moving around more today. Still poop stuck to his bum but no explosive diarrhea today at all. Much happier than he was at the petstore and seems content with his new hammock. His brother is fine with no runny poop at all, no sneezing, no...

I know they do Bearded dragons, Rabbits, guinea pigs, birds etc. So I'm sure they do rats too! I had guinea pigs before I got into rats and it was always hard to find a vet for them so been there done that wanted to help lol!

Some of the VCA animals hospitals will see rats! There is also an exotic vet called "Lakeside Animal Hospital" in Richmond! http://www.vetatlakeside.com/ I used to live in Richmond myself. You will love it!

It was just a last second thing the tank I had for sick babies I take in. I got him late at night so nowhere was open hardly. It was at the end of my shift. I groom dogs for said petstore and keep a close eye on the health of the "feeder" rats since no one cares about them. I try to encourage...

Thank you for the actual helpful advice. I just got him a few hours ago that's why he's in the tank I had for sick babies until I can get another quarantine cage. I saved him from the pet store where he was just going to pass because he was "Just food anyway" and so I saved him and his brother...

Him eating in isolation tank

Hello! My name is Amber and I recently rescued two new rats to add to my family of three. One of the babies I saved I adopted for free because he is sick. I suspected wet tail- however he is eating, drinking and exploring his new isolation tank fine. He lays down some like he doesn't feel well...
