oh they both got sets of danglers so no problem there! I don't *think* it's gonna be an issue, they are both pretty young, newbie is definitely a submissive type and Rat is totally an alpha, so they should fall into line. Bigger cage is on the shopping list. For the night (since this happened so suddenly) Squish is occupying an old bird cage (I clipped the sliding doors closed, just in case) It's not very big and I feel bad about that but it's safe and he can smell his soon to be cage mate. Food, water, and some newspapers and blankey are with him. Tomorrow when daddy is home (I don't wanna do it alone) we will take them to the tub or up to our bed for some face to face sniffings. The kids are at their mom's and have no idea we have another, little brother will be ecstatic since he's been in love with his big brother's rat. And keeps making it known how much he wants one and that he will call it Peter, but it's name is totally Squish haha. I'm the one doing the work after all. He looks like a Squish anyway. He's a super cuddler, and was the ONLY rat in the store, if there were more I don't think he'd have brought one home. It just spoke to him I guess. There are a few pics up in my Squish folder, I'll get more up soon though.
