Pet Forum / Mammals / Rats / October 2003Cairo Update.
Well I really have to wonder about my Cairo baby !!! All the way to the Vets in the car he was busy grooming himself. Secretly I think he has the hots for the Vet. The way he sucks up to her makes me puke..LOL. The Vet is very happy with his progress so we shall keep him on Doxycycline for another week and then book him in for his operation. I am so happy that I don't hear him breathing anymore..:) and Im sure he must be feeling better too. I would love to give you all an update on Niles but the truth is the wee fart is never out of his house...LOL. Hannah says when she sees him out and about eating and drinking so that is a relief. Still early days for the wee scaredy Rat..:( My thoughts also are with those in California... I can only imagine how scary that must be for all involved. MY heart and prayers go out to all the animals who may not have a lucky escape.. Ok time to go and admire Chandlers impressive Nest making skills...as I wave goodbye to at least 50 odd tissues...:)) Regards Kate  SignatureToday I may meet with injustice, ignorance, denial, all of which are due entirely to the other's lack of knowledge of good and evil and the difference thereof. how nice to hear Cairo is feeling better! And how lucky scared little Niles is to have found a home with you! I'm sure that with patience and love he will come to trust you. Klary > Well I really have to wonder about my Cairo baby !!!

It's so good that his breathing is good. Now, he's ready for the surgery. I'm sure sweet shy Niles will come around. My sister had an extremely shy boy like that so she would make sure she took him out every day and kept him in her sweater. He's somewhat more brave now, but he sure love his sweater cuddles now. :) SignatureJoanne Mom to 14 rats http://community.webshots.com/user/joanneb70 j-s.b@nospamsympatico.ca remove "no spam" I have thought about Rat Napping Niles... though I am unsure wether its a good idea to physically remove him from his wee house..??..What say you all???..LOL Regards Kate. ( Boss asked me last night if I suffered from heat rash or similar... it took me a while to work out that he was referring to all the scratches on my chest ..LOL.... I may tell him what causes it one day....maybe....)..LMAO > > Well I really have to wonder about my Cairo baby !!! All the way to the > > Vets in the car he was busy grooming himself.

I think I would give it a try, rat napping Niles that is... see how he takes just cuddling in your shirt. This may make him feel more secure. You will know if he is too stressed out for the caper. SignatureJoanne Mom to 14 rats http://community.webshots.com/user/joanneb70 j-s.b@nospamsympatico.ca remove "no spam" Wow, thought I was the only one with that particular rash! You might think twice about telling where it came from unless your boss understands the whole we-love-rats-gotta-have-um thing! I made the mistake of wearing something that showed the rat-love and when my co-workers found out where it came from they thought I was even crazier than before (they've lost any hope for me since I decided to keep all 20 babies!). I agree w/Joanne about the caper. I also have had some of my girls take many months to be cuddly just because they are independent little cusses! Then all of the sudden they decide it's time. Good luck.

This may make him feel more secure. > You will know if he is too stressed out for the caper. I often suffer from rat-rash. And when my two couples had 26 babies between them, it got a whole lot worse. People think I'm crazy for having them and putting myself through the horrible rash. People with rabbits do it, why can't we do it with rats? I always have that rash too! Drives me mad at times itching, but just can't resist cuddlin' those wee critters all the time... Tracey |
