Hey every one it's starting to get cold. Has every one got out there hairless or double rexes sweaters? If you don't have one, they are easy to make. Get some children’s socks sized at about 2 to 4 T depends on the size of your rat and cut the foot off the sock, so there is only the part of the sock that goes up the leg. Discard to foot of the sock. Then in both sides of the leg of the sock cut 2 small holes for the naked rat’s arms. Then put it on them they may not like it to much at first but they get use to it. Then they are warm and fuzzy. (Picture of my Nani in her new pink sweater)

Cute, but is it not hard work getting them to wear it??

No not at all I put it on her and she acted sorta like she wasnt happy with me. That was because she wasn't use to it. She has had it on all day and is no longer botherd by it.
