  • Names?!

  • my rat Gizmo looks like the black one and we have the same cages and yeah my rat climbs the cage too :3 its cute

  • there so cute i have 8

  • awww your rats are so cute

  • omg im gonna die from cuteness!!! u take care of them so well! :)

  • Wow! What a beautiful litter this was. :D

  • how do the tails of the rats feel?

    They look pretty nasty....

  • @merelientje1 Wow u have never even touched a tail of a rat and its not nasty it helps them and it feels like rope a little

  • @merelientje1

    They don't feel nasty or something.

    Its like people think that snakes feel slimy and cold, their not, but they are not my favovite animals xd

  • nice i have 2 female rats myself, today i took them to our local garden center. For breeing so they become calmber and not so nippy at each other. I hope that works

  • Aw they look like my rat :)

  • Awww their so cute i have 2 rats atm and i love them to death so far ive had 4...and hope to keep rats as part of my family :P

  • Where did u get them

  • I know some baby animals look adorable too many ppl, but c'mon. Rats?? I remember during the summer, one in my house tried to bite me in my kitchen. Unlike mice which are pussy and would run to any sound, this huge fella started showing its teeth and looked like it was being aggressive in some way. My dad called the exterminator, but how could these creatures be attractive??

  • @SuperMe4lyfe a wild dog or cat would try and bite a human also

  • @ThePigBlimp I know. Its the reason I dont deal with pets that much

  • @SuperMe4lyfe Wild rats are different than pet rats. I have had 12 pet rats, but I'm afraid of wild rats because they can be unpredictable. Let's just say there is a pet out there for every different taste and preference. :)

  • I've wanted pet rats for ages!! These are so cute!!

  • Hello I was just wondering where you bought a cage that big with the bars that close together? And how much was it if you can remember?

    PS super cute rats, I wish I could have that many but I don't have the time nor the permission from the place I live [parents place]

  • So cute

  • woot i'm getting rats in 2 weeks!!!I've had rats and a hamster rats are better hamsters are boring.

  • zomg ther adorable >.<

  • I rememba when mine were so small

  • I wonder why they ever said that curiosity killed the cat. Rats seem to be the ones biologically programmed for perpetual curiosity.

  • @jimgzorn You want Rats to die?

  • @nick66870

    No, I just think that they are more curious than cats.

  • the black hooded one looks just like my old rat Ratata

  • I remember when mine were that tiny <3

  • @plasticseraphim Yeah tiny XD

  • Naaaws my rats used to do that when theyre were like 3x smaller than that

    one timed i walked away after i put the back and i could feel something moving around my jacket and there was a lil rattie crawling inside my jumper hahahah

  • 6 people think those are giant mice :P

  • Ahhh, cute rodents. Though sadly they would have long passed away by now.

  • how many do u have awesome i want one so bad!!! :(

  • OMG at 2:24 the rat closest to the camera is so beautifull. Awww really pretty colouring!

    And my rats have the same house as yours (the yellow on) but thiers is pink! :)

    awww i love rats.

  • Too cute!

    ^O^

  • i wish i could have pets like that. but alas, we have two cats. tho Winter only died cuz a freak accident....

  • @TeamRocketsUmbreon2 I own a cat that will attack anything that moves. But that didn't stop me from picking up some pet mice of my own.

  • @xZombieMaus and three dogs :D

  • there very very cute. still, i don't think i could ever hold a rat.

  • Soooo cute. I had a rat for 5 years. Can't wait to get a new pair

  • They are adorable.

  • Aww, so cute

  • Aww, they're so cute!!!!!

  • the cage is to small for this many rats oO

  • what do you do when they get too many?

  • i am glad to see i am not the only one used as a play ground when the cage door gets opened

  • i am glad to see i am not the only one used as a play ground when the cage door gets oppened

  • i wish i still had my baby rats

  • Rats are soooo adorable :) I have 6 boys at the moment. I just got russian blues :)

  • The rat at 0:48 looks almost exactly how my rat did!

  • Cutiiiiiiiiiesssss! :)

  • To small cage 

  • That's alot of rats for that small cage. Cute though...

  • i wish ihad rats i love them

  • They're such little darlings; the black hooded ones remind me of a pair of babies I shared with my roommate before he moved out. Right now I have two pink-eyed whites. I live alone so they're great company.

  • who likes that fcn feedin videos where stupid ruthless idiots give live pet rat hatchlings to ugly slimmy lizards?.I fuckin hate that because i got two pet rats and they are pretty smart rodents

  • Ratty Rats! <3~

  • I got a black rat and a white one, they were supposed to be snake food one day but my snakes wernt hungry so I bought them a nice cage online and now they are my pets

  • ...very nice looking rats. =)

  • tooo cute!!!!

  • wow thats a lot of rats :3

  • They're not biting your fingers! *jealous*

  • Five words: What healthy adorable rats! oops sorry four lol

  • how long did it take your rats to become that tame. i have 2 males, the same size as yours and they are still nervous. i mean i only got them yesterday. i have managed to pick up the darker one and he has been sitting on my shoulder, but when i try to stroke or pick up the pale one he just cowers in a corner.

  • @wolverine1865 give them time...they will get tame...when you are able to pcik them up, sit them in your jacket or so...mine get tame that way....and now they stand at the door of the cage and wait for me when i´m not in my room xD

  • @FuzzlCore tamaki will come to the door when i open it and will climb out, but hikaru will go to the far corner of the cage he wont move

  • @wolverine1865 Depends on their age. The younger the better but just give them time to get used to you. :] if they are used to your hand in the cage they should be just fine. Rats are REALLY good pets and are extremely attached to their owner and really affectionate once they are accustomed to the person. :D Good luck with your rattiess<3 :]

  • preferably 3 rats is best

  • im getting one thats two moths old how big will it get and will it have hair

  • @MrButmonster get two!! Never get just one. They are lonely and unhappy unless you get two. :/

  • preferably 3

  • Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww They are soo cute!! I have 2 rats that like to climb all over the cage.. I call them spider rats lol. i like the stripes down their backs!

  • loved when my rat had babys just coz i wanted to play with them and there so cuite

  • i was wondering if you could help me out, i have 2 boys Pinky and Brain. they are about the same age as these guys but still wont come near me. i let them come 2 me, but brain still wont let me touch him. pinky isnt too bad but not as inquisitive as these guys. any tips on getting them to warm up to you?

  • They would be in danger around me because I think I would have to just squish them. They are so ADORABLE!! *Sigh* I miss my ratties so much :(

  • I was wary when my partner wanted to get some pet rats, but I totally fell in love with them (now I'm forever filming them for the purposes of boring YouTubers :)) I love the way they swarm for your attention (ours often make their way up your sleeves) ... adorable little things!

  • OMG they look so much like mine at the beginning i thought they were!!

  • did he die?

  • Hehe. I can them squeek! :oD

  • "oooooooooh let me smel your finger! CHOMP!!!"

  • @lpoland1000 Rats actually nibble fingers to show affection <3

  • aww

  • were did u get a female to have babys i want one soo bad so mine will have some cute little rattys

  • i c'ant wait to get my baby boys ^^ just gotta know when my rat breeder will be ready to sell them :3 very cute rats btw ^^ !

  • the black and white one just looks like my rat Xavier. : ) They're so adorable. I might consider getting another one!

  • lol.....Xavier.....Is he bald? can he read minds?

  • aww so cute i was thinking about getting a mouse but i want a rat i cant make up my mind so let me know which one i should get a rat or mouse

  • @skater8914 Rats are more intelligent, and hardy, in my opinion. So much more personality, then a mouse.

  • Rats are an amazing, intelligent and lovable pet, though require alot of attention.

    Mice are also intelligent and lovable, but are quite happy to be left alone and don't need as much attention

  • @skater8914  you should get a rat

  • i got 3 baby rats they like the sleep in my hood

  • haha nice

  • lol a while ago brought a mouse cage but it tered out 2 be a rat cage so im planning to buy a baby rat eny tips

  • @looterwolf do not over feed the rat, let him or her out daily, make sure they have plenty of water, and give it lots of attention and try practicing its name and making a noise after it so it recognizes that noise. i say my rats name and then make a nosie with my tongue and he comes right away

  • try to get 2 or more, the wire cages are better then glass. try to get carefresh bedding, pine/cedar(etc) can cause health risk's. oh yeah, when you buy some, check their gender(if you get more then one). when buying rats(or any animal) check for discharge around the eyes/nose. check for wet tail(the squirts). try to get younger ones, because they will become more trusting faster(not in all cases). older ones are usually more laid back.

  • you are right because i have a glass cage and aspin bedding and my rats had a respitory cold for 2 weeks or so. Im getting them a cage for easter specaily made for rats so they dont slip out! haha

  • rats are the best i have 4 of them

  • im detting two baby rats for my birthday like baby babies like 7 or 8 weeks old so they can actually live without their mom (:

  • at this point and time, how many did you have? and do you still have any?

  • i luuuuuuv the black and white ones!!! ... just  too cute for words...

  • Aww, look at the furballs! The one with the white stripe on he/she's head ( 2:23 ) looked rather interesting.

  • my rats died! i miss having them. i can't wait till i get new ones!

  • omg so adorable! i can't wait till i get my baby rats :D

  • Naaw.. I also want babyrats at my house.. Got four grownups but small ones are so much fun too!! ^^ and so cute..

  • I loved when my baby rats gave little affectionate nips on my fingers, or my nose. They always followed up with rattie kisses.

  • my rats when they go on my shoulder he tickles me by sniffing my ear and trying to nibble it. its really cute.

  • @GeneralKenobiSIYE You did? Rats and mice scare me,because of the way that they're out of their cages by accident, running loose,etc.

  • @GeneralKenobiSIYE i've found those ones that give the little bites oftern turn out to be amoung the most friendly of all.

  • those are some healthy looken rats!

  • How many do you have? *o*

    So cute :)

     <3

  • Oh My God I love the grey and white one (with the grey down his whole back).....and I love the mostly beige one!....what the hell, I love them all!!!! <3

  • How long have u had them 4 coz i have just brought 2 baby rats 2day and am wondering when they will start to climb on me and be happy to be picked up

  • hey u have alot of rats i have 2 baby rats they r about 14 weeks old they r growing and sooo cute

  • i have 1 too it gives birth to a 6 little mice!your's is veeery cute!

  • aww there so cute! some have got similar marking to my boys :)

    how old r these here?

    mine r 6 and 8 weeks, urs look so much bigger! cant wait for them to be brave enough to do tht, they are getting there tho :)

  • I have no idea why you are replying to this now, most likely, these rats have either passed, or are getting there.

  • I LOVE to see other rat owners! they have such a bad rep for such intelligent beautiful little creatures!

  • cute i wish i had them!

  • Lovely babies, but you shouldnt use wood shavings, they cause myco.

  • Pretty much all rats, with the exception of some lab rats, are infected with myco from the day they're born.

    Wood shavings can aggravate it though, although they're not bad, so long as it isn't pine or cedar.

  • I know all rats have it from the say they are born, but wood shavings bring it out and aggrivate it, and, all wood shavings are bad. Pine and cedar are the most commonly used ones, rarely do i see aspen.

  • Pretty much every place I know of that sells rodents sells aspen shavings. They're not that bad really, though there is better stuff. The best is probably "Yesterdays News" cat litter. Maximum odor control and quite long lasting.

  • Ah ok, how do you tell if it is aspen? Im just curious. oh and i cannot get yesterdays news here where i live (australia)

  • Here in the states they come in big bales, clearly marked with what species of tree it's made of.

    Aspen will also have much less of a smell because it's a hardwood. Pine and cedar are softwoods, and it's the aromatic oils in them which irritate rats respiratory systems.

    I am pretty sure you can order it online though. Next best thing though, would be those shredded paper types.

  • There is something called breeders choice over here, it is recycled paper pellets, that might be the australian equivelant to yesterdays news. And we can get carefresh here too, but its $15 for the smallest packet!

  • Unless I'm completely wrong about the conversion, that's about what I pay for a 6 kilo sack of yesterday's news. Might last longer though.

    What is it you actually use anyway?

  • Breeders choice, carefresh, and shredded paper and cloth and shredded paper towels.

  • Hmmm. The carefree over here is $18for a HUGE container.

    The 15 dollar carefresh is 15 over here for the colored one. for the smallest package. I see no purpose in that. Coloring? Really?

  • I don't quite understand your commet fully.

  • Which one? hahaha. I sent alot or responses. :D

  • All of them

  • it says it on the package! hahahaha :D

  • Really? I started my rat out with aspen becuase the guy at the store was like:

    "Oh yeah. Aspen prevents resperatory infections:

    Sure enough, the idiot was wrong and Houdini got an infection. My vet reccomended the carefree. That seems to work really well. It's all recycled material too. And not too bad price wise.

    What is mycro, though?

  • Babies? Excuse me? What's your definition of "baby"?

  • I just bought 2 baby rats from the pet store today and yes they are babies i had them looked at by my cousin who worked at a pet store and knew everything about rats. I started off with onl buying one but the first one i bought didin't like being in its cage alone so i bought another and now she's happy with her other gal pal lol

  • Cute but HOLY SHIT THEY ARE EVERYWWERE

  • babys? they're as big as my pet mices.. :o

  • Yes But they Can Get MUCH Bigger,Like the Size Of A Medium Size Book.

  • I have two rats. Maisy and miley and i luv them!

  • aww i want them!!

  • my rat just had her first litter of 16 pinkies 2 days ago. cant wait til they grow up

  • u can never hav enough rats they r so cute!

  • True True! My First Pet Rat I Ever Got I Was 7 And I Loved Her, Her Name Was Marry (Cuz i got her on christmas So Marry Christmas)! She would do watever i Wanted she was snuggle Not quite like that But i think She's GONE now.......I Had to give her away and im 11 so that was 4 years ago so.

  • MAN!I have seen loads of vids about rats that have a black face and a black line going down their back!Heck, My sister has a rat like that!That seems to be like a common pattern of fur or something :)

  • They're called hooded rats. (Though that one with the really thick stripe and only part of its face covered is, I believe, "banded.")

    Cuties! ^__^

  • rats are the best

  • they realy like u!

  • i have 5 rats: charlie, patrick, izack,rosie and poppy! and patrick is having babies very soon P.s izack is the only boy!

  • sick i have a rat named rocky

  • Awwh soo soo cutee !!

    I'm getting a rat this week and cant wait !!

    And how many rats do u have ? and do u think u have enough LOL xD

  • Hmm.I've heard its bad to get just 1 rat.they are very sociable in their single gender groups.

  • adorable rats! I just got a new baby, she is black and white and looks just like yours.

  • I love your Rats. They all have such sweet faces and I love the shape of their bodies. Like a bowling pin. So very very cute.

  • you sure you have enough rats buddy.

  • i miss those little balls of energy climbing up your arms lol i miss my rat i gota get another

  • Aw, the baby rats love their owner, that's why they're climbing all over you.

  • where can i buy this cage? was it expensive?

  • cute! my sis luvs em

  • cuties!!!

  • cuties :D

  • Your little ratties are so pretty!

  • I think I saw this on "Fear Factor"...

    lol! I love all your baby rats, they are ADORABLE!!

  • How many rats do you have!! :)

  • I have 2 rats and they started off sisters but then we realized that my little brothers rat, Brownie had testicles.... so I realized its a boy! Then we tried to make sure no 'funny business' happened between Tina and Brownie but yesterday I came home and there are 9 little bald blind babies in the cage! So now I have baby rats! Although they are quite small since at this point they are only about 12 hours old. But we dont exactly know how old they are because we werent there when she gave birth!

  • by the way, you can pick them up when there like 3 days old, dont do it when there just born, the mum wont like it, pick em up around 3 days, but remember, be gentle!

  • girl did one rat just bite you at 1:07?? please tell me it doesnt hurt! cuz i just got me a new pet rat today and i thought it almost nibbled on my pinky so then i scared it accidently! haha what do i do if i just baught a new rat?? do i leeve it alone for like 2 days?

  • To bunsoy16: Don't leave your new rattie alone--spend lots of time with him (or her?) so he gets to know you and feels comfortable with you.

    Pet rats sometimes "nibble", but it is not biting, but just sort of rubbing you with their teeth. It does not hurt at all--and it's a compliment. ;) If you don't like it, squeak when they do it, and they'll be gentler.

    My rats used to try to chew on my fingernails and watch sometimes, I just squeaked whenever they did that and now they've stopped.

  • Cute rats (:

    It's so cool having a rat with her ratties

  • the grey one at 0:27 is simply ADORABLE!! i love her markings so much!

  • Covered with rats! That looks so funny!

    They are the cutest! Look at them go!

  • The cage is too small for that amount of rats in there and they definitely lack exercise - every single rat is too fat so I guess their diet is wrong as well... :(

  • They don't look too fat. They just look like they don't miss many meals, that's all.

  • CUTE (:

  • Nice variety in a litter. I like the charcoal hooded ones.

  • God, so many rats. I've got just 3 and it's much more than enough. They're more like tornados with tails than pets. Love them anyway. Sorry for my English.

  • O.o why are the water in their water bottle yellow?

  • most likely vitamins :3 i give mine vits all the time

  • Same here! I'll be moving off-campus next semester, and I'll be getting rats too, and I seriously can't wait! XD
