Hey all! So since I last posted about my trio (Reggie, Fuzzbutt & Teddy) Reggie passed away 
He didn't even show signs until the last few days (he lost weight, that was it) and before I could even make an appointment he was gone. I found him in a hammock and Fuzzbutt was still cuddling him. He was probably at least 2 now and most likely just passed in his sleep.
My girlfriend, who did not know how awesome rats were before, got a case of GGMR after his passing. She's really come around to loving our boys. So we found a couple of babies and brought them home to live with Fuzzbutt and Teddy! Their names are Striker & Scottie. I'm going to add pictures later today. (when a download of mine is done)
And then!! There was a post on my local kijiji of "4 Killer Rats" to give away as "food, pets or to experiment on" because they had been allowed to be loose with hamsters and had subsequently killed all of the hamsters (of course) and the owners were blaming the poor ratties. SQ had posted about them, alerting me to the ad, and with her help I picked them up later that night. These 4 siamese boys are the sweetest, cuddliest boys! I just adore them. They're not even nippy, let alone "killers"... I've had them out for play time with my 4 boys and everyone gets along great. I'll upload pics of them later for everyone too.
So, yeah... went from 3, to 2, to 4... and now I have 8 lovely rat boys in my home! haha. I may let my sister take 2 of the siamese boys because she is in love with them too; so I'll let you all know if that happens and if/when I get all 6 or 8 living together in my dcn.
That's all for now!!
