My three girl rats 2006-2008

This is a video I put together of my rats who got tumors. You can sometimes see their tumors in the video.

A note on the cage: Its rusty for being old. This cage has lots of memories with all my rats. Now its all rusty, so the cage is going also.

Its the genes...pet rats were used and still used for lab work...most die from tumors and cancer because of gene work that they use in science. Because science messes with the genes its passed on to the babies.

Most wild rats die from starvation or animals killng them. They dont die from tumors and cancer.

80-90% of rats get tumors. It's a sad fact.

female rats are very prone to tumours unfortunately. Speying has proven to be very succesful in stopping them though and stops the chance of getting infected uteruses wich is also common. My female rat is speyed for these reasons. =)
