Rattie Boys ((10 pics))

[Brattina88]

Here are my rat boys. They're very tame, but I think Leo's the tamest. I want to start clicker training him... I think that would be awesome. The click stik I just bought, the nose isn't so loud, so I think that'd work better for my rat. Well, Leo is "mine", Dust and Ralphie are my roommates, but we all take care of all of them. Anyways...

The crew... Dusty is showing off his cat like rat tail

Dusty is being nosey... the other two boys are peeking out
>.< I woke them up with the flashy thing!

Should we come out?

Leo still has a baby face <3

Leo stands on top of the igloo to get a better birds eye view

Hmm... now they're curious. Sniffing the camera lense!

Dusty traded Leo spots...

*proof* Rats can be litter trained!

Thanks for reading!

are all of them litter trained? That would make life much easier! I always wished my guinea pigs could be litter trained---I dont' have any now, but would think about it again if I could train them!

Yep, they are

They still occasionally pee outside of the pan - actually, I've read that rats are incontinent, so they might do it more than I think... but it helps a lot with cleaning the cage!

I did have a wee bit of a question. That cage looks pretty small for 3 full grown adult rats. Is it bigger than it looks? Or is that a temporary cage...?

*goes back to look at the pics* The cage is much bigger than it looks. I can see how it looks small in the pictures - it must be the angle.
However, it is a temp cage in the sense that I had to buy a smaller one because of the spacing on the bars because they were only 6-8weeks when I got them and they slipped through bars easily
I have been looking for a BIGGER, multi level cage... I want the *right* one for us, and the most decent price, of course <3

Have you checked Goosemoose.com in their "Sales" section? A lot of people sell their old cages on there, for cheap.

Thought'd you guys would like to know (especially punky) that I finally found and awesome cage. It's a 4 level cage, I got it off of craigslist for only $50. The picture really doesn't do it justice, its like brand new and HUGE

Leo says he wubs it!
