Hi everyone!I am new to the rat forum, but have been a rat owner for exactly 8 months.I have one amazing little rat named Olivia, who I love more than anything! She is a 9 month old, black dumbo Berkshire. Her favorite activities include licking my hands, sleeping in her pocket hammock, and scampering around my room for hours. I know your not supposed to only have one rat, but if you met her you would see that she is very lively and happy. I ordered her the double critter nation a few days ago, and I am so excited for it to arrive!

Welcome! I don't doubt that she's happy, but it is better to have friends if you can. It's a lot more fun for both you and her

Thanks! I'm not sure she would be, as she has met my friends rat, and is aggressive towards her.

Typically when introducing new rats to eachother, there's a whole detailed process that you do. I would encourage you to try and look in to it, some rats don't get along with certain rats but get along better wit others. Like us humans, some rats prefer certain rats over other rats But the company really is important for them
