Ever since I can remember, my rats have hated being in water. I know there are rats out there that like it or can at least tolorate it, but mine alway panic as soon as they get in the tub.
I really want a rat that likes water though, so I want to do some experimenting with my new girls to encourage them that water can be fun!
I've never actually put a young rat in water before(I alway waited until they were older). But if I put toys in the bath as well as some sort of safty platform so they could get out of the water if they wanted to, do you think there is a chance they would like it, or could come to like it? or are some rats just natually fearful of water?
