    INTRO: I noticed that my lil rattie ear was kind of bloody, but I thought it was just a scab cuz he scratches his ears a little aggressively lol. It's been a few days and dried and fresh blood is still there. I'm starting to get worried. I don't think it's an infection, but idk. WHAT IT LOOKS...

    I have a veterinary appointment already booked, but I wonder if someone has any tips. One of my females, a sweet girl, has scabs on her neck. No other girls have them, nevertheless I will check my girl for parasites. She scratches her scabs when grooming and opens them up, causing bleeding. I am...

I wiped it with salt water and wiped it with a paper towel. Is there anything else i should do to help him with it? Tonight i...

    Hello, I hope you are all well. When I got back from going out today, I went straight upstairs to go and see my ratties (I have thirteen). When I picked up my heart rat Hazel, I noticed that here was some blood coming from her vagina. Not loads, but it was around her vaginal area and a bit in...

    Hey guys I am very concerned and could use some help. i was cleaning my rats cage (I have 3 boys) and I noticed drops of blood all over some of the wood. There was a lot of drops, and I’m really concerned because I checked my rats and couldn’t seem to find any wounds. I saw a little bit of what...

    Hi guys, I would really need some help. We have a one year old rat (one of three) and only him started sneezing blood. We took him to the vet they did ultrasound and x-ray, checked his lungs and they don't know what is wrong. They also tested the red fluid he is sneezing out and apparently it...

    Hello, I recently noticed a drop of what appears to be blood outside of my rats' cage, however there was no trace of blood inside the cage or on any of my rats. I cleaned the cage, and now there's blood again which appeared about a day after cleaning (I had to go away from home for a night and...

    My younger sister has a female rat named EV who is just over 1 year old. Around two months ago she developed a small lump, which has grown to about the size of a quarter. It's soft and movable and doesn't impede her movement or seem to cause her any discomfort. About a month ago, my sister...

    Hello! This is my first rat and he’s around 6 months old. All of a sudden this morning I woke up to find him with bloody urine. I went to the store, got him new bedding, new organic adult rat food as well as toys. I cleaned his entire cage from top to bottom and sanitized it. I washed his bed...

    Hi all. Tonight I added my new little boy into the big boy cage and everything seemed fine. Just now after about 3 hours of nothing the top dog Cheese decided to fight the new boy (as expected tbh). Everything was a normal fight in terms of pushing into corners and squeaking and trying to flip...

    I’d like some advice. I have 4 rats - Basil 1+ y/o, Charlie 1 y/o, Puff & Ash (littermates) 4 months. My oldest boy Basil has multiple bite wounds on his back from Puff. I’ve observed Puff relentlessly chasing Basil up and down the cage as Basil is very standoffish with him (putting his paw up...

    My rat Diego today bit me twice. The first time this morning was on my finger and I admit, part of it was definitely my fault since i woke him up with yogurt on my finger and half awake he probably just smelt food and his instincts kicked in but the second time I was kissing my lovely, super...

    My rat peed on a piece of paper and I noticed it's a pink tint 😬 Please help what does this mean. I've look around on Google and there is all this terrible stuff. I desperately don't want to believe any of that stuff 😟 He's about three months old, and besides the strange color pee, he's...
