Pet Forum / Mammals / Rats / January 2004sleeping!
Well until my husband sets up the camera you will just have to imagine! Badger seems to have a thing about my husband maybe because he is always warm, but he prefers sitting with him rather than me, Oh Well! He sleeps in the most unusual positions imaginable, Last night he was as close to my husband that you would of thought they were stuck together and then Badger rolled over onto his back with four pink footies, one long tail and the curly whiskers going, the ultimate in pleasure my husband rubbing his tummy he was a ratty in ecstasy.

What an adorable little rattie. Does your hubby enjoy all this attention? My hubby does not like my rats, or any rats. But I did get him to cuddle with Benny a few days ago. I wanted to take my bath and my poor old Ben was not ready to go back into his cage, so I forced my hubby to sit with him. To his dismay, Benny crawled up to his neck and cuddled there for a while. My hubby was so stiff...lol but it was cute! BTW... he still doesn't like rats, but I do catch him petting Benny now.

I have managed to get my nan to pet one of our ratties - she was really petrified until she met one of our old ratties - annabelle - she never scurried about, was always friendly, and would gladly just sit there and be petted :grins: It will take time but I am sure you can convert him :g: Hey *I* was converted. Well, not strictly true - I had my reservations but just hadn't been introduced to the adorable likkle critters :) Moi? Hooked? Neveh! SNIP >BTW... he still doesn't like rats, > but I do catch him petting Benny now. 8^) Yes, first the involutary holding. Then the covert petting shortly followed by the secret treats. Next thing you know...he's hooked. Rats are like gumbo "The first one is free" and then you're HOOKED! Keith p.s. I AM NOT HOOKED! I just hate seeing ratties at the petstore so I "rescue them" when I have the space. > p.s. I AM NOT HOOKED! I just hate seeing ratties at the petstore so I > "rescue them" when I have the space. Yeah yeah, we have all heard THAT one before :grins: I know I have said that a few times, except that it is "well the rescue centre called and they have 2 boys that have been there for 3 months now and need a home... must rescue.... must not leave... argh!" "Will go for a quick visit just to see if there is *one* rat we can bring home....Oh bum, we have come home with 4." rofl :) You know you love them really ;) It is amazing that you have "Rescue Ratties"..? our Local SPCA never has them... only the poor old Cats and Dogs... and I'm banned from their now.... ( Finally got 3 dogs down to 2)..LOL....Wonder if they would trade Dogs for Kids???? ... the possibilities.....(j/k) Have a great day all 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. > > p.s.

Ours tends to have all sorts - last time I went they had: Ferrets Rabbits Gerbils Rats (not when we left ^_^) Cats Dogs They sometimes get birds in, but it does depend. I wish they had none of them in because hopefully that would mean they all had good homes ^_^ > ( Finally got 3 dogs down to 2)..LOL....Wonder if they > would trade Dogs for > Kids???? ... the possibilities.....(j/k) Hehehehe :) Hmm, the kids *are* expensive to keep and look after.... hmmm... ;) [not that I have any, but I can imagine :)] > Have a great day all > Regards Kate And you too :) Jon My husband always said "they are your rats and your responsibility"... at first he did not have much to do with them.. But I think he really likes the ones I have now. He will never spend as much time with them as I do, but sometimes I think "what's that noise" and then I find him at the rat cage quietly talking to them and giving them treats... Also I say to him probably every day: just look at them how sweet they are! aren't they sweet? and I think he can only agree... klary > > Well until my husband sets up the camera you will just have to imagine! > > Badger seems to have a thing about my husband maybe because he is always [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > hubby was so stiff...lol but it was cute!
