(forgive me if this isn't allowed. I read the guidelines and didn't see anything about cross posting!) I post on a rat forum as well, and one of the rescues is trying to get a group of rats from their rescue to their forever homes!! Most of the legs of the Rat Train have been filled, but...

So I'm interested in getting car harnesses for our dogs so they're safer while we're travelling. Does anyone use these? Do they actually keep the dog safer? Is there anything in particular I should look for when buying them? We'd be buying one for our little guy, who is a 9 lb Min Pin and our...

My huffy little man, Tonka, passed away unexpectedly this morning. I found him unresponsive snuggled on top of his hedgie hat. He was always huffy, but never mean. His curiosity always got the best of him and despite his own huffing and protests, he'd always come out to explore. He was a...

Hi all-- Yesterday, as I was cleaning cages, I accidentally used the same brush to scrub my rats' igloo, wheel, etc. to clean my hedgie's wheel. I've always kept separate brushes, towels, fleece bags, etc. just because I felt it was good husbandry, but I wasn't paying attention yesterday, I...
