PLEASE NOTE** the cage used in all of my step video’s is only tempory 🙂 the boys are in it untill they get neutred, and then they will be living in the b…
I need some tips, my two new pet rats are taking food from my hands, but one of the two started biting in my fingers every time i put my hand in the cage, not so hard that it starts bleeding but it sure does hurt. I do not flinch or anything like that. The other rat is curious and investigates my hands without any biting. Tips ?
My rAt hid behind his wheel for a day then I picked up watched tv with him and I guess he was cold cause. I put him in my pocket and he wouldn’t come out. I play with barbies I put him in yay doll houses aNd he loved them 2 seventh later he loved me
If you already had success with your rats and training then why watch the video? Are you so bored with your life that you have to go on YouTube and make negative comments on a video where someone is obviously trying to help those that need to train new rats. I don’t tell you that you wasted my time bc I read your comment. BTW you are very welcome that 3:29 was wasted from your life, probably the best 3:29 minutes of your life! Thank you sticky2208 for taking your time to try and help ppl, kudos.
Very cute little rat. I just had to put one of mine down earlier this year. They’re such fun and loving little pets–too bad they don’t live a few years longer!
I watched these videos when i got my first pair of rats and they were the best rats ever, I progressed slowly with them as the video instructs and about 3 days later they were my best friends in the world. I love them still and now come back to this video to get a refresher course with a new pair of rats. thank you for the video
this music makes me depressed.. everytime i here sad music i think of mynrat Oreo, my first rat I ever had pass… and it makes me cry everytime a here music like that…
Thank you this worked on my new baby feeder rat I saved 3 months ago. He did not like humans because the place we got him from held them by their tails and rats tails are way to fragel. Since they did that, we have to put anobiotic cream on his tail, it has way to may hurt spots.
Such a moving video… I’ve seen people with these little guys…but i first must consder the cat factor..as we have them… I am glad there are these teaching videos..i wish more people would get informed before getting any companion animal..i have rescued for 11 years..our kittys are rescue.. they are mature but I still need to learn the “cat – rat” companion factor…thanks
You can but it is better to buy them both at the same time 🙂 Makes it easier for them to settle in and you cant guarantee that they will get a long if you buy them sepertley, If you do decided to buy them at different times, you have to go through a ‘intro’ process, I suggest that you buy them both at the same time, Will be better for both you and the rats 🙂
im going to probally get a rat on sunday but im not sure about because i really want a rat to care for but i was wondering if you could get the rat at different times because i want to get two males since rats are so social and i don’t wont them to fight so can you get the rats at different times or no

Buy them at same time. They’ll bond better and your rat will get very lonely alone.
Rats are very social so being alone even for a few weeks will be bad for them.
Some rats might get aggressive if they’re when in contact with a stranger.

Liquid is better at first. THEN move to solids.

This is advice for petstore rats. If you buy from a breeder they will already be socialized.
