Caring For Your Rats 

Picture

We have compiled this information as a jumping off point for general rat care. There is loads of information out there (some good and some not so good), but we wanted to offer this resource list for our adopters and prospective adopters alike.


BONDING with your new rats: we couldn't say it better ourselves; so instead, please link over to the esteerm Isamu Rats to learn some wonderful methods of bonding. Click here! 

CAGES, ENCLOSURES & MORE: sections include Cages & Enclosures, Bedding & Substrate, Foraging & Chew Things, Hammocks Hideaways & More + Bioactive & Naturalistic Rat Cages. Click here! 

DIET & NUTRITION: sections include Diet, Nutrition & More, Self Medicating with Herbs, Base Diet Comparison - and more. Click here! 

VETERINARY CARE: including a list of Florida veterinary hospitals that are knowledeable on the care of rats. Click here! 

Introducing New Rats

Introductions can be fast and simple - or lengthy and gritty. Many factors contribute to this, but it is stressful nonetheless. Although I could type out each of the (many) methods for you to try, I am going to instead link you to a website where they have already done this beautifully. Isamu Rats is a safe and knowledgeable resource for many things 'rat', and they really take the cake with this comprehensive list! You can find their informational page about this here.
