Hi everybody! I got my very first rat about two months ago. Unfortunately at the time the pet store only had one available but it was either adopt her or they used her to feed the snakes and she was so **** cute I could not let it happen. Fortunately for me though I live with 4 of my best friends and for my birthday a couple of weeks after they bought me the cutest little sister for my first rat! My first rat I got I decided to name her White Claw so it only seemed fitting I named her sister Truly. After I gave them a few days of getting to know each other through two separate cages I put them together and they have been best friends ever since. I love my little ratties so much I can't believe I never got any sooner. They are so intelligent, loving, playful, and ADORABLE! Unexpectedly I had a thanksgiving miracle and my new rat Truly had 6 pups!! I have been doing a lot of research on what is needed on my part to help the new little baby momma and her pups be happy and healthy and decided to make an account on this page! I am certain that they are both female and Truly was pregnant when I got her. I would love any personal tips or advice for a first-time rat GRANDMA!!! Thank you, everyone and I am very excited to be a part of this community)
