well...i have had my two boys nowe for a few months.....things have been going good.........except that my son is now becoming really interested in them.if they are in their cage and the door is closed he'll stand there and whine till i let them out....this is all fine except what he really wants to do is put random toys and sippy cups and other similar things (cell phones) in the cage...mind you the rats dont seem to mind that much...but i dont really like picking it out of the litter then cleaning it.....the real problem is this.....my son is starting to try and hurt the ratties by throwing things at them...pulling their tails and trying to push them places.....and no matter how sever the punishment is he just doesnt seem to get it......every time i hear a little squeak i know that kyles bugging them....up to this point they got along great kyle would just look at them and then he would laugh when they sniffed his toes
anyways its really pissing me off as im sure you can all imagine.....have any of you had a similar problem?...keep in mind my son is still only a year and a half old...so he doesnt know what hes doing...but my rats are so good with people now i am worried it will start to make them nasty ....
