We had to put our Luna down last week. Her partner in crime, Nova, has been lonely. We found a local Kijiji ad and brought Bonnie home today. We read all the recommendations and were super-cautious, gave them both gentle baths and introduced them in the bathtub (neutral territory).

We need not have worried! They are quite calm and happy together. Bonnie has bit us a couple of times, but is not super-aggressive, and seems to just need a little time to get used to her new home.

I am sorry to hear about Luna. We just put our Patches down last Sunday also. Your rats are beautiful. Good luck with Bonnie. I am in the process of introducing also. our surviving rat is not happy with her new cage mate and is ignoring her at the moment. Things could be worse and they could be fighting. Time will tell.
