So, my two girls Susan and Kova have been inseparable from day one. But recently, my more dominant rat, Susan, has been constantly harassing Kova. And I mean, constantly. Susan will harass her when she's just drinking water or simply just sitting there. Kova is obviously not okay with this and sometimes they box. I heard thats not good. Yet, at the end of each day, they're cuddled up next to each other. And I know it's natural for animals to assert dominance, but I feel so bad for Kova.

Loving rats since 2002.
It's very normal for rats to interact this way and it might not even mean they are being bullies/bullied. They might even be playing. If they still cuddle together, I would not worry about it.
