I would like to know if anyone can provide me with info on spaying & neutering rats.
Like cost,risks,what to expect,how to care for the animal after healing etc...?
I think I *might* be getting 2 male rats,& if I do,then I would like to put them in the cage with my females (if they get along) but only if they are altered first as I highly doubt I could keep a bunch of rats while living at home.Dad has me on a pet limit now & he said I can't have anymore than 8 rats total while living here (he's not *scared* of them now& he even petted my females,it's just he prefers I don't get a bunch =) So,unplanned litters are out )
If it's really risky (I know theres some risk with all surgeries) I'll just keep them in a seperate cage.It won't be that hard to do.But since I'm getting a much bigger cage,it would be nice =)
P.S. I know neutering has less risk.But I would like info on spaying as well,just for reference.Thanks!
