Advice on caring for elderly rats?
elaine c asked:
My poor gal Joyce is now past the 2 year mark and starting to have failing health. Her teeth get overgrown and we have to clip them back. Oddly after more than 10 years of rat breeding never had that problem for. Right now she loves peach apple sauce as a snack.
She is skinnier than she used to be.
Just wondering what other rat owners have found helpfull.
Lol is spoiled ratten.
More info she has never been a mom so she doesn’t have that to worry about.
