Rats!!

[xblackenedeyesx]

I have two little baby rats! I got them yesterday, they're six weeks old and they're lovely. Although, one of them has pneumonia so I have to treat them both with antibiotics :( Which sucks, firstly because I really hope she's going to be ok...and secondly because I'm scared they won't bond with me while I'm forcing a syringe down their throat

Baby rats!!!!! Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!! That's so cute!!!!! We had rats in primary school, they were called Hastings and Naseby and they were awesome. What are your rats called? I'm glad you've booked a holiday, that sounds great! xx

They are pretty damn cute!

They're actually un-named at the moment - it takes me forever to name pets because I always have to find the perfect name!

I want to name one of them Meg or Grei (pronounced "grey"), and Paul gets to name the other one.

Meg/Grei just bit me :( I still love her though.
