They use their tails for balance like cats usually always land on their feet. This is also where their sweat glands are and how they cool off.

😂

Someone recently asked me if my foster kittens had their tails yet. Like... what?

no they have them cuz the ladies like em 😆

I think people are googleing this bc they have flexible skeletons

Nope

its like asking if cats have bones lmao

Amanda Fransiscus My dog is scared of the rats 🤦

Ikr all my animals r scared of my rat. my big bad pit bull and my terrifying siberian + tom cat...

My rats and one of my dogs would play with each other 😂 ONLY through the cage, I never let them together outside the cage but they would chase each other back and fourth it was adorable :)

One of my guinea pigs does the same thing! 😂

Mice and rats shouldn’t be housed together..

@@silas.t. generally no they shouldn't lol but these 2 were very happy together

Lucas Mckenzie hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Duh! C'mon everyone knows this!

Plastic cage bases are usually fine, but it'll depend on your rats. Mine were fine for months then decided to chew through the base and explore my apartment. They missed their sister who had to be moved to a nursery after having babies unexpectedly. They're fine now that they're back together though! As for wheels, males will usually use them less if they use them at all, but females are likely to use one. If you give them a lot of free roam time, they don't have to have one but still might enjoy it. Just make sure it's the appropriate size.

Dumbos are the cutest !

Abi’s Animals hey Abi! 🐰🐹🐭🐀🐁

Hey! 💞

If you're not able to have dogs rats are a really good option! They can be just as affectionate as dogs :)

Yes two of my precious rats were trained to sniff out explosives

@@Emiology thats amazing

There’s many other reasons I wouldn’t keep them together such as the cage size requirements / risk of rats living in taller cages mice could fall in and also the slightly different nutritional needs you’d have to accommodate for but I’d be interested to see how you do that!

@@Emiology thanks for your reply! As I said I've owned mice and rats for many years so my life basically revolves around them and I just have to work around them. My mice and rats have always just gotten along without me needing to interfere or do anything like that. It started when I was free roaming the rats in my room and one of my mice Bobby who was a baby at the time, he's nearly 4 now(that's really old for a mouse), was on my shoulder because he just always wants to be around me and so I decided to let him down onto the ground with the rats and Bobby was very interested in them but they didn't really even notice him, well they knew he was there but they didn't really care. From then on my rats and mice have been living in harmony together. I feed my rats and mice the same nutritious diet and they absolutely thrive off it, their costs are all really healthy, they are a good weight, they have plenty of energy especially some of the older ones that still like to climb and play and run around! I just love them all so much!😊💜💜

Briar Williams don’t feel too guilty! It’s not really your fault, hopefully this will all go away soon and then you can get your baby some friends! Stay safe!

Omg I'm crying emi read my comment thank you so much emi this means the world to me

I’ve already done a video on rat cages ☺️

@@Emiology oh yes, sorry I'm new and am about to get rats.

They are both crepuscular, but a ferret WILL eat a rat.

I know they always use the same squeak track and it’s so obviously fake to people who really know rats 😂😂

When she says little drops, she means ... Little drops. I've heard people that let their rats roam in their bed often have a specific rat blanket or sheet that they lay down. I let mine run on my faux leather couch, that way I can just wipe it down after. And I guess you don't HAVE to change after they pee on you, but like... You have rat pee on you you should probably change. Even if it's just a little
