I still remeber when one of the teachers at my pimary school terified of mice and rats got mice for the class and they where good about being gentel but the problem is one was white … and they where both males. She asked me to clean there cage each day which I agreeed I was happy to help but one day a few students ran up to me in a panic cos there was blood everywhere I managed to calm them down but had to hold a bleeding mouse for about an hour till one of the teachers was able to get someone to come get it to take away don’t know if it was to a vet or just away from the kids I didn’t ask. But that built far to much trust from thouse kids in me xD so when they hurt them selfs they would come running to me instead of to teachers and mean while I’m 12 I don’t know how to fix them

Rats are social animals and live in groups so having 1 on its own is not recommended. When I researched for some adoption options I couldn't find anyone who would let you adopt one on it's own if it's your first... they believe it to be unethical to do so... I love that. So don't worry momma... you did the right thing... lol

Yes! As long as you've got the space and financial capacity, there's basically no such thing as a mischief that is "too big". I've currently got 9, a friend of mine always has two seperate groups (one boys, one girls) of around 15, although atm they have around 35-40 in 2 or 3 groups iirc (they work for a rescue and take in the ones that can't go anywhere else and recently got 15 half wild boys from a hoarding situation that are incredibly jumpy and didn't find a home because in their foster home they just hid in a corner of the cage, super scared all the time)

Then some family + my little cousin came to visit when I wasn't home, my cousin grabbed a rat, forgot which enclosure he took it from, and put THE MALE RAT HE GRABBED INTO THE FEMALES CAGE. I then ended up with 27 rats and had to convert a whole room for the horde. :') Good old times! I miss them a lot, but holy hell was it a lot of work.

Because I'd highly recommended to not neuter a bunch of rats just to keep them all in a group (simply because there's always risk and it would be incredibly sad if one of them didn't make it or got complications after surgery). Either way, good recovery to the dad, please give him an extra treat from me if you like. And I hope all the little ones grow up to be strong and healthy!

@@willyouPLEASEshutup fingers crossed it stays with one batch, but good that you do have places in hand where a second one could go if needed, that's great! Sounds like you're mastering this situation quite well, so congrats on that! If I may say this, I'd recommend keeping two or even three girls, so you've got a nice little group together and don't run into trouble as soon as a rat passes (hopefully when they're old and had a great and long life of course, but it's still good to plan ahead and future proof). I personally have set 6, mayyyybe 5 as my lowest before getting a few more girls for this exact reason (and because a group size around 10 just works well for our household) Glad they enjoyed their treat! Amazing names btw!

Fun facts about rats! (I love rats so much! These are my fave facts) Male and female rats typically have different personalities! Generally female rats tend to be very energetic and love to explore and play and be active, while male rats like to sleep and cuddle up and sleep some more! Also some fun things to do with your rats would be fill a dish with shallow water and you can put some peas in it for them to collect! It’s really enriching and rewarding for them, and they love the snacks! Also you can find some pet safe soils and make them a little digging area, could bury some high reward treats like mealworms or nuts or crackers or something. ^_^

Please remind yourself that it's not your fault you didn't know any better. The care info today has gotten a lot better over the years and access to it is much easier now. Looking back I definitely regret some of our rabbit care back when I was a kid too but that's so easy to say looking back, having access to the internet and all the resources on here. So while yes, of course it wasn't good for the animals and it's important to acknowledge that, it's nothing you can change anymore, so it's not worth beating yourself up over it, instead, learn from it for the future, make sure to do your research if you plan on ever getting any pets again and then do your best each day to care for them and learn more in how to be the best pet parent you can
