| Re: Rats as pets... Rats are really great pets!
As much as I love my dog, hammies and GPs, my rats are really the one that jumps on to me daily now.
Remember, rats need socialization so it would be good that you take them out at least for 1-2 hour(s) per day.
I love to just give them the tickle in their belly (Research show that rats laugh when tickled!) They'll slowly open up to you on this though, sometimes flipping them on their back is a tough one when they aren't that trusting you yet.
Remember the cage should be fun, as rats are smart, they need things to keep their mind going. |
