Scratching

[MissGuardian]

I´m wondering how much scratching is normal?
I think Nirvana is scratching a bit much, but I may very well just be a bit paranoid..
Her fur and skin looks fine.. No scabs of any sort..
She seems to be doing it more if I hand wrestle with her..
I´ve never had a rat that actually plays with me, so I don´t know if it´s normal?

There is no harm in treating with revo just to rule out bugs. Is she always scratching the same spot?

No it don´t look like it. Just general scratching I guess..
I´ll talk to the vet when I get my paycheck then, and see what he says.
I want to have a checkup on Stefan after the surgery anyway..

Do you see her licking her back foot before and after her scratching or do you see her just out of the blue stop and scratch?

Ok...then I'd do a treatment just in case.

Okay.
I´ll call the vet to do a checkup on them then. Thanks.

I have a vet appointment on the 26th.
Thanks for the help!
