    Please Help -Biting in a Neutered rat

    Ok so here is the problem: my man rat Briar just bit me all of 10 minutes ago. It isn't a bad bite, he got me on my middle finger and it bled a fair bit, bandaided now, still stinging but the cut itself is very small.(is there anything special one should do to care for a rat bite) Here are the...

    Rats in Alberta

    It is safe for rats to fly? I just always thought that due to their rather fragile state (drafts etc) that they couldn't fly! Does that mean if someone moves far away they could take the rats with them?

    Sleeping with Eyes Open

    So my old girl, Dahlia, who is about 3 now, just scared the life out of me! I went in to check on them and I see her, half out of the hammock, little arms dangling, eyes open. She didn't move when I opened the cage and didn't wake up until I touched her... several times! She had a small mammory...

    I really want to get a fish tank

    hmm I had a fishtank, had to give it up when I moved though. I was wondering about live plants, I've noticed snail problems in some pet stores, and I *think* clown loaches eat them so if you are going to get a huge tank perhaps a clown loach isn't a bad idea after all? Or perhaps I'm way off...

    Possible Mammory Tumor -First tumor experience

    My first thought was an abscess after going through those also for the first time with Briar. It is similar but it is right under a nipple. thats why I thought mammary tumor. It isn't attached to her body underneath the skin, but it seems like it is attached to the nipple. (does that make...

    Possible Mammory Tumor -First tumor experience

    Thank you all for the advice, I will update with what the vet says in a week or two. Yes I agree that a spay would be an excellent idea, however they run about 120$ here and that is out of the question atm (especially since I will have to pay who knows how much for the removal). In addition...

    Possible Mammory Tumor -First tumor experience

    So while doing introductions I've noticed that Dahlia has a small pea size bump under her armpit. It is detached and not super hard but not soft either. It is directly below a nipple, but I was surprised at the location of her normally not visible nipple as being right in her armpit. It...

    eye problem?

    I had a girl with a similar problem but it was only in one eye. It didn't seem to bother her so after looking up some stuff I decided it was likely a leaky duct. I took her to the vet a little while later just in case and he said there was a possibility that she had like an in-grown eyelash so...

    Post Neuter Questions

    I adopted 3 little boys not too long ago, they are about 9 weeks old now. I have never had neutered boys before so maybe I'm asking stupid questions but I need to put my mind at ease. I was just having out time with my babies when I noticed that Lotus had a red tinge to his fur around his neck...

    What kind of camera do you have? the pictures are so crisp and clear! I'm sure it isn't only the camera doing all the work (gotta have a good photographer too) but all the same, I'm in the market for a new one.
