I"ve had a couple of incidents where someone fell off something and it looked like one of those 'omg there's no way she didn't get hurt' falls(like hitting something on the way down). Most of the time they brush it off like nothing ever happened. Sometimes it does freak them out a bit though. Perhaps your girl is bruised and in a bit of pain. I"d watch her very very carefully and if her behavior doesn't change in reasonable time, inspect her closely or have a vet check her over for signs of internal/external injuries.

I'm so sorry to hear about Apollo.

All of these are top ears.

The Debbie Duccomon Rat Health Care booklet, updated annually, is a must have for rat emergency and health care, IMO. It's only about $10 and well worth the cost. You can get it from her website at The Rat Fan Club. Another favorite is Training Your Pet Rat by Gary Buscis. Much of the book is actually about taking good care of your rat, but it's good information, and important to keeping healthy rats so they are trainable.

Okays not.
My rats' grandpa came to me today.
He is going to be 1 years old soon, and my boys gladly accept him (They knew him).
&& surprisingly, he is smaller.

They were in a hamster cage when I took this photo cos' I was trying to take a photo of them together as my digital camera spoil ages ago.
Using my phone cam for this .

I came across a thread like this from 2003, and really liked it, so I'm going to restart it.


- I will not wear skirts.
- I can't stand ketchup, even watching other people eat food with ketchup makes me nauseous.
- I only lock the bathroom door when I'm home alone. Especially when I'm taking a shower.
- I hate baths, and haven't took one for years.
- I've never had a real boyfriend, that doesn't bother me one bit, either.
- I won't wear tanktops in public, unless I have a hoodie over it.
- I have to have a blanket over my feet at night, even if I'm too hot.
- My radio is always on, even when I'm sleeping.
- I hate Maroon 5, I don't know why. I just cannot stand them.
- I looooove the smell of dryer vents. mmmm.
- I eat everything with forks, even icecream or soup. I just hate spoons.
- I hate dancing, and will not do it.
- I feel naked without my hoodie, socks, and cell phone.
- I hate bare feet, but I like feet with socks on.
- My pinky toes are bent over the toe next to them. So are my mom's.
- I spend hours at a time on-line reading about animals, usually animals I will never own, but wish I could. (skunks, bobcats, raccoons, etc.) Everyone thinks that is crazy because they are IMing eachother or shopping for trendy clothes.
- I have my eyebrow pierced, but I'm not 'the type that would have an eyebrow ring'. I like them, so I got one.
- I never want kids. I love my pets, they are the best kids I could ever have.
- I won't wear sunglasses, I'd rather squint.
- I can't do dishes without disposable gloves, and I inspect every clean dish before I use it. (yet I work at a dog grooming shop and have no problem with cleaning dog poop, puke, or expressing anal glands.)
- Like I said above, I can clean up animal puke, but If I see or smell human puke, I gag.
- I can't touch raw meat.
- The AnimalPlanet show 'Animal Cops' or whatever its called makes me cry every time.
- I won't eat meat unless it's boneless, and cooked completely, then sometimes I still wont eat it.
- I don't like juice, especially orange, grape or apple. But I do like Sunny D. (yeah, weird.)
- I chew my straws into pieces after I'm done with them.
- It's really bothering me that so many of these start with 'I', and that this is getting so long, but I keep thinking of things to add.
- I often think things right before someone says it. Like, if I'm talking to someone, I say what they are about to say, in my head. I can't explain it.
- I realllllly wish I was homeschooled, so I could work more.
- My favorite ring is made from a yellow zip-tie, my favorite necklace is made out of green coated paperclips, and I love them more than any real jewelry I own.



So, what makes you weird?

I am SO glad you like it! I would love some pictures to see and add to my "satisfied customers" page, if that would be alright. 

Julz: Yup, I have black. I can get almost any color, even if you don't see it on the site or on here. I am actually leaving in about 2 seconds to go on vacation and will not be back until next Sunday. Ill bring the pink with me and make up a pink DD while im on the plane; I needed a new one to do anyhow. lol.

Check and see if there is a powder-coating company in your area.  They can sand-blast and re-powder-coat an old cage.  Places that make trailers (like for horses) or do anything related to race cars could probably refer you to one.

 Yep!!!  Perfect!! Thanks again for your help!!! WE so appreciate it!!!!!
Take care!!!

Thank you. 

I've been seriously considering how that would work.  I think the weight of the 670 might bow the top of the 680 and thus I would need to add some sort of reinforcement to the 680.  I was thinking of looking for some kind of hard plastic sticks that I could zip tie to the 680 as supports.  I'll head out to Lowe's sometime this week and see what I can find.

 Apollo was very young, my first male rat that i loved very much. His death came very sudden. Over a course of 3 days his health went from being great to slowly wasting away. There is a whole story on him in the rat care guide. It went from broken legs, ( because his feet we soo badly swollen) to not having broken legs but some unknown illness that my vet had never seen before, to heart failure on the 4th of July. It happened so fast, i didn't know what to do with myself. I made the decison to put him to sleep, it was my last gift to him. He was a fighter but his heart couldn't take it.  He just wanted to be with me all night and when it came time he rest his head on me as if to say, " its time".

R. I. P My love.
