Here's how I bond with new young rats in general, including some tips for winning them over and becoming quick friends.
As I mentioned in the video, these tips will apply to all rats but rats from difficult backgrounds / pet stores may take a lot longer with each step to form a bond with them. If you are choosing to not get rats from ethical breeders please be patient with them!

I've wanted pet rats since I was about 12...my parents hate them so I was never allowed. Now 15 years later, no longer living at my parents' house, after tonnes of research and prep I will be picking up my first rats at the end of the summer 🥰 it's been a long time coming but I can't wait

I needed this so bad 😭 I had a lone female years ago; she was a special case (in the saddest way). The place I adopted her from wasn't very knowledgeable on rats and tried to introduce her and her sister to another pair of females by just throwing them in the already established cage. It resulted in a brutal fight, bad enough that her sister died. They nursed Daphne back to health and after a few failed attempts at introducing her to other rats, they decided they didn't want her (it was a school that kept a pretty big menagerie of animals so didnt have time to deal with her truama). So I got her when she was about about 18 months. She was a wonderful rat, and I loved her so much. We'd eat popcorn together on movie nights (she'd only get the soft bits) and she'd me out with me from the time I got home from school to the time I went to bed. She had a stroke one night while I was at work and I found her floundering on the ground. She died in my hands about and hour later and for 17 year old me it was truamatizing, so I wasn't at all ready to get another rat. Also, the cage she was in really wasn't adequate for her, let alone a pair of rats, so I decided to hold off. My partner and I decided it was time to get rats, and we got a pair of boys. They're 5 months and extremely skiddish, and having never had to have acclimated a rat to people, I've been really discouraged the last few days that I've really been trying, so this was really a great help for me :)

I’ve been watching your videos on rats for some time and yesterday evening I adopted my own two baby dumbo rats! It was so tempting to get more as they are so adorable. Following a lot of tips from your videos I managed to get a very good cage set up for them and all the necessities they need. Less than an hour or so after arriving to their new home they were already exploring the cage and began zooming around playing with eachother. They have not seemed timid at all since then, they seem completely happy and comfortable, it hasn’t even been a full day and both were comfortable enough to climb into my hand when scattering food in their cage. I cant wait to slowly begin bonding with them!

They are so sweet and you gave some awesome advice. I use most the same ideas for bonding with my boys as well. I am a person who has had many rats over the last 4 years and many of my babies are straight from a feeder bin as there aren't as many breeders that are trustworthy where I am. Iv also gotten some babies from free adoption from pet stores and some from oops litters. But no matter where iv gotten my boys iv never had a problem bonding never been bit by a mean rat, and iv adopted older rats many times from feeder bins. I feel if you have patience and time it's all you need for a good start to bonding. Also asking to choose the baby from the bin helps, as I never go for color I just go for the friendliest baby lol. Anyway thanks for the video I love watching your video, also I'm all the way in Canada!!

Did you get them from a pet breeder? My rat from a breeder is very shy but she’s getting better- I scoop her up and hold her in my hands or a hood for about 20 minutes in short bursts a day. The rat I got from a shop and did the same thing to (scoop up instead of letting her run away all the time) worked wonders and now she will come to me to be held, she’s very outgoing.

Hi Emi!!! I have had my two baby girls for two weeks now and you should know that your videos helped me research and prepare for them so much. I have one from a breeder and one from a petstore (not my first choice but the breeder wouldn’t give me more than one…) The petstore rat is very outgoing and happy and loves to sit on my shoulder. The breeder baby is shy but very sweet and is slowly warming up to being held and cuddling me. My two girls love sleeping all cuddled up together and tussling in the playpen. I like to tickle them- I haven’t made them laugh yet but I’m hoping to! I also like to scoop them up and kiss them and give them treats. You are very inspiring and you’ve helped me make my first girls so incredibly happy. Thank you 😊

Watching this again after 2 years after bringing home my second "batch" of rats! The first time, I had just brought 3 boys home from the pet store, and it took months for them to get used to me. I still have 2 of the original 3, and they are sweethearts, but have had health problems all their lives. These new 2 boys have come from a reputable breeder- I drove 4 hours each way to pick them up. I can already tell they're much more comfortable and confident, and I look forward to introducing them to my two old men once they settle in. 😊 Thank you for your videos, I love seeing how you interact with your rats!

just picked up a lonely boy from a pet store, I'm going to do as much one on one bonding with him as I can until I can find him a friend. hes been home for 3 days now, and this has already helped so much. he LOVES treats, and is already coming out to see me when he hears me enter the room!

Your new boys are adorable! I wish I had seen that video when I got my first rats. I took bonding too carefully with them and one of them is still very hard to handle two years later. I should have used a bonding pouch. I have done better with my new rats and it's a big difference.

I got three girls bit over a month ago and this video was very helpful. Despite being from a pet store one of them warm up to me in a week and the other two took a month.

What a fancy thing that bonding pouch is. I just had my rat in the pocket of my jacket, back some 22 years ago. I just stuck my hand down, so it would know my body smell. Other rat owners that I knew, had the rat crawling around under their clothes. Mostly the rats would stay in the sleeve of a sweater.

Thank you KZfaq for recommending me this haha, perfect timing! I got 2 new boys last week; ironically they look exactly like yours ^-^ I made the rookie mistake of buying my first three from a UK brand petstore (Wont name names, but we all know who), they got genders wrong, definitely aged wrong and claimed they were friendly but---- ( yeah I've owned them for over 7 months now and still cannot get them to trust me in the slightest) I've come to accept that they are just viewing babies, not cuddle bugs, but thats fine I love them regardless! This time having changed my mistakes and brought from a breeder, I'm blown away at how friendly they are! (I'm not used to kisses, only nips so it's a nice change of pace!) Ty for the video, it was super helpful!

So cute! I signed up at an ethical breeder near me for two girls, she'll try for atwo litter early summer. My three ladies will turn two this year although they're all very energetic still. During free roam I often put a fleece blanket on my lap where they can snuggle under. It works well to bond too!
