Oh, to have a glimpse of what goes on in their little ray brains. Adorable.

Leif (left) and Mina (right) were oddly calm while I took this photo. I don't think I've ever seen them sit still for that long!

Last Visible Dog posted:I had an idea for a little rat activity. You take some toilet paper tubes, cut 'em into thirds, tape them together in a little cluster and tape them to a cardboard backing. Then you fill each tube with a little bit of bedding and hide some little treats in them, like bits of tortilla chips. You end up with little foraging tubes that the rats can dig through for the tiny treats. I tried that with my rats using a single tube and they just chewed a hole through the side of the tube to get directly to the treat. Maybe I'll try this method but they'll likely flip it over and eat the bottom.

We got these two babies because we had to put down one of our other rats and the remaining one needed company. These two have come up with an, uh, interesting way to drink: That's Ratilda on top and Canoodle on bottom. Also totally adorable how Ratilda looks like she is nursing a mean hangover.

We were worried about integrating the two new little ones with our old gal Ratilda... I don't think that is a problem! Ratilda is on the right - I honestly can't tell which is which of the other two. One is Goonie and one is Ratpunzel.

Falstaff posted:Glad your intros went well! In my purely anecdotal experience, introductions are usually no big deal - but every once in a while personalities clash and fur can fly, so it's best to err on the side of caution. That pic is actually from a week or so ago, all seems good so far! Ratilda is an old sweetie so she mostly just sleeps and looks cute while the other two play around.

This is both hilarious and terrifying. So many times I see my rats lying dead still with their eyes open and I have to poke them awake to make sure they aren't dead. And then they get mad at me for waking them up. Sorry, babies! Anyway, here's a rat tax: One of them is Goonie and one is Ratpunzel. I can't tell which

What's everyone's favourite song adaptation to sing to their rats? I've recently been singing to the tune of paint it black "I see a cute rat and I want to give it kisses"

My rats hide all their food and then come begging for food immediately. I'm onto you guys...
