You run into this little thing in the forest, what do you do?

The size comparison is uncanny for them only being a month apart. Bonsai being older at 16 weeks. 😳

- I got Orson a few weeks after getting the dwarves, a trio was originally planned beforehand but it happened quicker than I thought. Orie for short, he’s the sweetest rat I’ve ever had. Outgoing and rambunctious, he fortunately keeps up with the boys. No one told me how crazy dwarf rats could be!

Their cage is still a work in progress, and their stainless steel pans are on the way. Also, I ordered more mushroom hammocks &’ fabric to make my own! I’m really liking the woodsy/bohemian vibes. Dark green and orange will probably always be the theme. 🤣

Introducing my two dwarf rats, Bonsai &’ Elmwood along with their big brother, Orson. All of my previous females had passed and decided to get some males again. This is the best trio of rats I’ve ever had.

Should I use this account to post about my experiences/ownership of rats, and how they changed my life?

Would anyone be interested in reading it?

People who say “animals know when you’re trying to help” have clearly never actually worked with animals in distress

Also, whenever you’re thinking that an animal won’t do something stupid because it’s not part of their described natural behavior, just remember:

Animals didn’t read the textbooks. Be prepared for anything

Rat noses are the cutest noses.

I love my rats, they’re the light of my life, but God do they give me so much anxiety at times
