Baby Rats, Days 12 - 15

Friday, August 31st, 2007

I’ve been on vacation for a week, but I’ve been taking photos of the rat babies! I want to show you their progress!

12 Days Old

They pretty much have all their hair, and we’re pretty sure they’re all girls.

This is the one I call Gatwo, because she looks like a little Gato!

More Baby Rats by Request!

Thursday, August 23rd, 2007

I actually had a request from an internet user for more rat pics and videos! How can I say no?

Here is the cutest picture of the babies ever. I can’t believe I took this. You won’t be able to stop staring:

And here is some video of Gato, my tiny daughter. She is very sick with respiratory troubles. She became resistant to the medicine she’s been on for a couple of months, and now the vets are kinda scratching their heads at what to do next. You can see that she has trouble breathing. She a old lady.

I still say that I’m going to add more pics from my vacation, but in the meantime, here’s something. We just bought a new pet rat, Ann. The other day when I was cleaning their cage, I found THREE LITTLE PINKY BABIES!! Ann had come pre-preggered!

Here’s the little mommy on her own mommy:
