Awwww they are sooo adorable . Mine were born on december 30th . Its been a week and they are already becoming little lovable ratties .

Ive had mine for almost a month. Floki fits his name as he is curious and active... Nico just lays there and just takes it . but both are very lovable on their own terms.

Very sad to say that I got biter ! Was jusy cleaning and he charged on me to bite. My first agtessive one so this will be like a day zero.as if I never had any rats at all . Hmm how will I get through the chiwawa fear of my little bobby

Lookit all of these adorable rats! They are absolutely adorable! The first picture looks like my Grumpy.

As for biting, I've had a rat charge my gloved hand before. It may be a territorial issue, or a fear issue. Do you happen to know how a breeder or rescue volunteer treated them?

They looked ok there was 3 large beautiful cages . They also had a dog and a cat . A young couple, the mom was gorgeous . Well .. I wont give up , I will still give him treats ,and love him . I started him on antibiotics as i think he has an inner ear infwction and that may be the issue . Maybe it is because it annous him who knows .

Updates on my babies getting big. I am patient with Bobby biter . He finally got out of the cage to come and give me a fake pretend bite to return to his cage . Its a good sign but I am still worried that someone may have dropped him before I got him . Marlow is amazing , he plays wuth cat toys and loves it when I play with him . Patience is a virtue.

Aww! How cute! Glad to hear the biting is getting a little better.

My boys are getting big as well! The smaller brother eats so much! But they are calming down a bit.

Awww they're beautiful! I have 3 boys that I rescued last year. They are all very sweet and full of mischief, however Vishnu was a biter and more skittish that Hamish and Professor Franklin VonWrinkleston (hairless boy). Vishnu tagged me on my wrist, lacerated my tendon. I was pretty scared to go near him after that. I learned that he was hormonal at that time,so putting my hand in the cage or touching his back end were big nonos!! I took the time with him to learn what his boundaries were. It took a while but now we are very close and he loves his cuddles. He always let's me know when enough is enough. Body language is key!
