The Laid Back Rat

This is a video of Ratley
Sadly, I lost him on August, 22nd 2008 after what appeared to be a neurological affliction set in.
He came down ill on Wednesday, the 20th and
we took him to our regular vet who specializes in small animal care and did everything possible that could be done, even making a repeat emergency visit once I saw that he was not making any improvements, we had blood tests run, fluids were given, his kidneys were tested, he was put in a nebulizer, his colon flushed, IV antibiotics administered, but nothing seemed to help him.
We took him back home, spent the remaining last hours with him just making him as comfortable and as happy as possible, giving him all his favorite foods and toys and cradling him up until the end.
We had and still have incredible love for him, and realize what a special little guy he was and he will forever be in our hearts.
We really miss him.

so sweet! I love that each rat has a different personality. I've had probably 20 in my life and every single one had a personal favorite food, some loved to cuddle and lick, some wanted to play fetch, others liked to run around. Such a sweet video!

As a fellow rat owner...I LOVE THIS! My little fella (Lloyd) is mellow, but he's not quite this laid-back.

@k3v1nfbr female rats are much more energetic than males, the one in the video is a male, and if yours is a female then that's why. :)
