Whaley...are you registered with NARR and do you have a website ?!

I am getting all new pedigreed stock and once Im in my new house and settled then I will start breeding again more seriously....I have a bunch of rescues right now.Im on hold as a breederfor the timebeing.I have a mentor now so this makes things a little easier. I do have a website..http://www.freewebs.com/luckylops. =)

We just got a pair of hairless rats in at the Humane Society! My first thought was of Amy and how rare it is to see hairless in a rescue. I hope they get a good home! I like to play with the rats when we have them at the shelter, but they're so hard to keep track of! No play pen can hold them, and they always seem to get into trouble when I take them out of the cage!

OMG!!! What a sweet little dumbo baby!!

Too bad rats aren't allowed on planes....I am coming to Upstate NY (Johnstown) sometime towards the end of this year....I'd surely rat-napp that baby!

[whaleyk98]

Thanks everyone...he is a cutie isnt he. I wasnt sure if I was going to keep him or not...still thinking on it. Im waiting for my hairless litter...my last hairless female had a still born litter =( I was pretty bummed about that but with this litter I have my fingers AND my toes crossed hoping that she took and everything goes alright.

 

[JadeIcing]

I looked at your site and Amy is helping me learn a bit about rats. I would want to go through you. That is a must for me.

I have three males! Two are neutered and the third will be soon! They're so much more chilled out and seem calm and happier without all of those hormones.

their cage:

they have a 12" silent spinner too but it wasn't in the cage at that time.

I'm not that big of a regular rat person, I prefer the big white lab rats that my brother's friend used to have....
They freak me out and scare me...
But a lot of these pics are adorable! They're so cute...
Then I saw this picture... The nightmares will begin again... The evil rat overlords... In tiny little robots running around whipping us.

Awww, not the Zee! He's a big sweetie. :biggrin2:

 

[Saudade]

Okay he's adorable... but look at those eyes he's totally planning to take over the world...

 

[undergunfire]

Well..."RATS RULE"!!

Pretty soon, no doubt in my mind, they WILL rule the world once more and more people see how amazing they are. They already rule your world when they are in your life.

:laughsmiley:

Oy... Mine just gave me a HEART ATTACK.

I was in the office when I hear the rats kind of making noise and so I didn't think about it, but then it's a BIG noise, absolute WAILING, and then I hear Alexis screaming. So I RUN (yes, actually RAN) to the bedroom. Cricket had his foot stuck in the mesh of one of their extra levels, and was just wiggin' out! I had to wrap him in my sweatpants just to handle him. He's totally fine, btw, didn't break it or even sprain it it looks like. He walks on it just fine. But man. Phew.



Edit: Saying that, I have rats! LOL 13 of my own and 11 in a rescue litter.

 

[undergunfire]

Cait...what kind of cage did that happen in? That is so scary . I am glad he is okay!

 

[SunnyCait]

It's the FN, but they had one of those corner shelves just for a bit less dead space. It's OUT now. It's weird because they've had it for awhile and I'd never noticed a problem.
