So I've now separated Splinter from his mom and sisters (the babies are 5 weeks on Monday but I didn't want to take any chances...) but now Splinter is by himself and just really really sad looking... At first he just kept looking at me like he was saying, "haha, funny mom, bring them back now please"...and now he's just sad...
I bought him a teddy bear today, thinking that maybe it would make him feel better to snuggle with something at night...and I've been playing with him a lot (he's now my "come with me everywhere" rattie)...He's fine when he's running around but just looks dreadfully sad when he's in his cage...
So, keeping in mind that I am not allowed any more ratties (I'm lucky my boyfriend agreed to let me keep Splinter lol), what are some things I can do for Splinter to make him feel better until I can get him neutered? Should I have in the same room as the ladies or is that a bad thing?
Thanks!
