awww. He is partial to you. We have rats that way, some will bite the hell out of me and kait can just pick them up LOL

He'll let daddy touch him, but he's in defense mode - hair stands up, I'm not really sure I like this look, his body tenses up, etc. I finally get the "stand down" mode - never thought I'd see that out of him!

Snickers let daddy rub his head this morning without being all tense - he had that look of relaxation on his face :joy: His URI is also cleared up, but he is staying on the antibiotics for another week that way he will have had a full month on them. :joy: :joy:

Is he being good because Santa is coming soon? Or do you think he's turned a corner?

I don't have too many good updates these day so a few now and then are good! :joy: He will still need a neuter as he bit daddy tonight, just a little one, but he did draw a little blood. Nothing more than a tiny paper cut, but my goodness you'd of thought he chomped the finger off. Men can be SOOOOO whiny! He gets so worked up during out time with his need to mark everything. Although for him he has turned a corner when he's in the cage, or on the couch, anywhere but the floor in the rat room. He still goes after his cage mates during out time, but today Throttle really let him have it and it deflated his ego a bit I think... that is when he went to picking on daddy. From his behavior I truly think he was trying to dominate him. Daddy also provokes a little putting his finger in this face, etc things that just annoy him. Daddy also got a nail scratch from Sebastian/Lovee oh my, did the whining and the look at my scratch continue ....
