So I had my boy Walden neutered last Friday 11/9 because he was becoming increasingly agressive and caused one of my other rats such an injury that he had to be taken to the vets. Before the neuter he would bite me on occasion, but it never broke skin.
Since the neuter he has bitten me three times. The last time I think he hit bone and I left a trail of blood from the rat cage to the bathroom. My husband thought I should go to the emergency room. I understand that he is probably scared since he is seperated into a smaller recooperating cage, and probably in pain. My issue is now I am scared to death to go anywhere near him. How long do you think I should just leave him be? The vet said he could be reintroduced on Tuesday, but there is NO WAY I am putting him back with everyone else because the bite he gave me could have killed one of them. Has anyone else had problems like this?
