CUTENESS Big boy 🥣

My biggest boy Noah had his weekly weight in today ✔️

Since he's the laziest little guy i know, i try to check his weight more regularly than the others, and give him less snacks/treats compared to the others. But honestly he's just a big boy, and I think he will always be on the heavier side. Regardless he's my little baby and I love him for what he is

CUTENESS she’s a little bit challenged ❤️

before i got her, she was taken from her mother at 2-3 weeks and fed cat kibble, plus she had a respiratory infection, so i think that’s stunted her development a little bit. she’s okay, she can eat just fine, she just can’t carry big snacks and she’s exceptionally clumsy, much smaller than her cagemate and far behind her developmentally. she’ll just always be my baby in more than one way i suppose ❤️

RIP Saying goodbye

136 Upvotes

I'm a first gen Rat owner, still learning the ropes, but trying my best. same as my best little girl here, Kuro.

Kuro is barely 19 or 20 months old and its time to say goodbye already, I will have her put down tomorrow after a long but fruitless fight that ended in pneumonia and congestive heart failure. I tried every option available to me, she was on antibiotics for weeks and lately I even tried adding steroids (prednisolon) to the mix. in the end, it did nothing but prolong her suffering.

Goodbye Kuro.

The first loss hurts the most.

Enjoy a video I took of her just a few days ago, where she still was a happy little booger even tho she fought just to breathe.

Video is sfw.

Look at my precious Rat Bastard in a sleeve. I didn't realize he was in a heart shape until I saw the pictures afterward. I love them so much 🥹

He managed to find a piece of crisp that we thought was a paint chip so we caught him to check. He looks like he’s lost his neck to steroids

This is the position Frankie chose to lounge in.
To be fair he is pouty he lost free roam privileges for fighting and this could be a dramatic display of anguish.
