ok so im picking up my two new boys on Saturday morning and i have never introed rats before i started with two boys miki and sammy and they are so awesome my daughter and i have decided that a larger group would be ok we have both been told rats thrive in bigger community's. so here is what im planing ...
(oh and fyi the two boys im getting are a rescue from a friend whos little girl(age 9)went and bought at a pj pets after seeing mine and has had them in a hampster cage if not on her person her mother freaked and blames me 'grin'... not happy about how it came about but im not sad that i have created another rat lover)
intro them in the tub first keeping an eye on how they greet each other wash out thier cage and descent as best i can then heap lots of extra food and treats and see how it goes I got miki and sammy from a pet store wich i never do but they where cramed in ther with loads of other rats i got them as babes in october so im thinking they should be ok for new cage mates. and if it all goes horribly wrong im just gona have to buy another giant cage??
can anyone see any flaws in my logic or have any additional advice i would very much appreciate any and all input
thankx for ur time Kitty
