Question

Bonding rats?


Okay, with the passing of Blackjack and Willard, the remaining pets are kinda lonely. Pickles was the constant shadow for WIll, so I was thinking of bonding him with Nemo. Pickles is a very meek fellow, so I think they would get along. It needs to be done gradually, right? Should I just let them free range together a bit?

Here are a couple of articles on introducing rats. I hope you find them useful and good luck.
