Bounce
Bounce is a cheeky girl who loves to tease the other rats that share her cage. She can be a bit hyperactive and will bounce around on the floor when she’s happy. Bounce and Mouse are sisters adopted from the SSPCA in August 2010. Bounce is a striped roan rat and so far hasn’t suffered any problems resulting in a trip to the vet.
Mouse
Mouse is a laid back girl who enjoys nothing more than a chocolate treat. She also enjoys spending time cuddling in the hammocks with the other rats that share the tower cage. She’s a little chubby compared to our other rats but this doesn’t stop her running around and enjoying life. So far Mouse has not suffered any health problems.
Magic
Magic is the newest member of our rat family and is very friendly and outgoing. She is also rather mischievous and enjoys running around our flat. If you’re sitting in the same room with a laptop Magic will attempt to steal the keys from the keyboard. Unfortunately when we adopted her from a small animal rescue centre in Edinburgh she had a hernia at the base of her tail. This was operated on in an attempt to repair it but it was found she had a nasty infection at the same time. Thankfully with lots of TLC and antibiotics she made a full recovery.
Our rats live together in a Furet Tower cage filled with hammocks, toys, hiding places and tubes. They have fresh water and food available at all times. This is the botttom half of the cage.
