INTRODUCING MY RATS... AGAIN
Like 4 Dislike 0 Published on 29 Apr 2019
This process / video was filmed back on the 2nd of April. I had the majority of the video filmed and edited before Badger unexpectedly passed away. I asked you guys on twitter & instagram whether you thought it was still appropriate / worth uploading, and 98% of you said that it was still something you would like to see. So even though he unfortunately passed away before I could finish filming this video, I wanted you to know that he had a good few weeks of cuddling and playing with the other boys happily, with no fighting or tension, I just wish he could of had longer with them (and I wish I had filmed more of it but I was so busy with my other job). The ultimate reason why I decided that it still felt right for me to personally upload this is that it contains many clips of him in the last month or so of his life, which are nice to look back on. I also thought it could be beneficial to those of you who may be needing to or thinking of introducing your own rats, to see the process, especially after a neuter, and to see some of the behaviors that could possibly appear during your own introductions. It also has a somewhat happy ending, even though Badger is no longer with us, Moose is now able to live happily with the other two rats, and I'm so happy about that. Please take a look at some of the resources I like below to better understand some of these behaviors and also the introduction process as a whole, as this video wasn't meant to be one explaining the process, just documenting my own:
