Kristenleannimal hey doll💖💖
Kristenleannimal can u do this with a snake cage
Kristenleannimal can you do a video on how to litter train your rabbits
Kristenleannimal they are so cute
The rats might not like alfalfa because it's not easy digestible for them :) unless it's for nests!
Please properly educate people. That wheel is too small and alfalfa and hay can kill them. The wire ramps and such can cause bumblefoot so they need to be covered as well.
Kat Jester so true I got a knock off ferret nation for my rats and the shelves and ramps are wire squares. So I used some bath mats and cut them to be the correct size. Also I used kitchen drawer mats! You have some great points about the alfalfa and wheels tho.
the ramps ran be secured if you put socks over them :)
@ComocosonoEWL Hi! Sorry to be a bother, but I'm hoping to eventually get some rats and i want to properly educate myself.
You say wheels and roaming balls make rats feel trapped, and most wont use them. So whats your opinion on the saucer style wheels? Personally i dont think i would use a classic wheel for rats(and certainly not roaming balls either), just based on everything ive heard. But i havent heard much about the saucer spinners, so im wondering what people think about them.
Heckin Heck id only recommend them for young rats, and only the large one for young rats. the classic wheels are really only the safe ones for most rats
@@no-nq8dj What makes the saucers unsafe for adult rats, as opposed to normal wheels?
**Alfalfa**
Me: chokes
Honey bee can they have timothy hay
Pro tip! Men's socks work awesome as super cheap ramp covers! It covers up the wire and they're extremely cheap and you can get any color. They fit pretty much perfectly.
I Pet Zombies great idea!!!!!
Sara Smith I was so excited when I figured it out by accident! My original ramp covers got torn up so I tried my husband's socks for the heck of it.
I Pet Zombies i shall be stealing my partners socks with holes in now hahahaha
Your a freaking genius! Totally doing this with my rats!
Thank you!
Your wheel is too small for your rats, they would have to bend their backs to use it! When I got my rats a bigger wheel they suddenly started using it all the time!
Carolina storm wheel!! Or Volcano View
My hamster uses her wheel
Kaytee’s Silent Spinners!!
@Shannon Maracle yes they do they run every night idiot
@Shannon Maracle false. My ratties use their wheel.
99%of the comments : DON'T FEED YOUR RATS ALFALFA
1%of the comments : random stuff
Btw I 100% agree please don't feed your rats alfalfa
Thx i actually really want pet rats and i really need To know what they can and cannot eat
@@eliispihlak8765 Shadow the Rat videos on you tube has good info. Also Debbie Ducommon. Rats are opportunistic scavenger omnivores and eat the same home made healthy meals humans eat.
Fresh Pet is a refrigerated moist dog food minimally processed for a great base feed. Dried processed lab blocks or any processed feeds are high in chemicals and preservatives. Fresh spoils fast for a reason, it's full of nutrients not chemicals. If you try Fresh Pet, freeze the extra, it spoils fast and remember rats can't vomit so make changes slow.
Avoid Glyphosate and GMOs. Feed organic fruit and veggies to do this. Look for the 9 as the first number of the bar code.
They CAN’T use the wheel, I’m not even gonna repeat it. And your rats can possibly get their paws stuck in the baskets. Alfalfa and hay is not usable for rats.
I havent finished the video so I dont know if she did this or not but I use a ton of baskets in my cage, I cover then with fleece and I've never had a problem with it :)
@@kailynfreeman3764 baskets are totally fine, just be sure the holes are small enough so they don’t get their teeth stuck in them if they chew them
Please never feed your rats alfalfa it will kill them, I can tell you love them a lot and I wouldn’t want that kind of heart ache on you!!
Rose Gold Little they’re clearly still alive
@@kamilakuczynski3938 for now.
Kamila Kuczynski over time it does serious damage you are clearly still dumb
I learned this the hard way... :( Years ago I gave one of my sweet ratties timothy hay because I was told it was OK...He died from a bowel obstruction because of it. :( :(
@@tammythe_hammy6811 lol
Rats shouldn’t have alfalfa or hay
Golden Gray that’s what I was thinking
Allthingshanani Rats are very smart animals and know not to eat things that aren’t food
Allthingshanani rats do chew but as long as you keep a eye on it and take it out if it’s to chewd they should be fine
Rats eat everything in the wild people come in
@Allthingshanani plastic is fine as long as you keep and eye on it and remove large loose pieces of chewed plastic, they don't generally ingest it.
Love your cage it looks so nice!💕(also try not to feed your rats alfalfa because they can't digest it)
eva lou ...yeah that's what I was told when i got my girls. Is it ok for like very rare treats, cause I always see tears I think they'll love, but avoid them cause they have alfalfa.
Can someone please Tell me what alfafa ist
@@Laryskka it's basically fancy hay
Her cage is not nearly good enough for them. They can easily fall of the hammocks and baskets.
@@michaelbby2000 It's best not to use alfalfa at all =)
This makes me miss my pet rat from high school/college 😭😭 his name was O.G and he was huge and so loving he would chill with me for hours while I studied and did homework. I adopted him from a pet shop because he was really old and they were going to feed him to another animal if no one took him so I had to save him!! unfortunately he only lasted about 6 months but he was one of my most favorite pets I’ve ever had!!!
My favorite rat ever was a similar story! A huge blue male named doobie. He is why I love my rodentia friends!
“Your rat must seemed cute and smart "🐀
Had a really awesome and sweet female rat, she was so friendly. I paid like $6 on her, she was a “medium feeder rat” at a Reptile and Amphibian store. Unfortunately I had to get rid of her because my sister always has to outdo me and she bought two more females, and didn’t know that one was pregnant. She ended up with two pissy females and 14 babies, never had a properly cleaned cage and she got ringworm, so all the rats had to go, my sweet girl included :/
Sutch a nice and sad story...
Same. Had one as a kid. My parents didn't know can't be outside. We lived in Australia where so hot. She did have a good size cabinet to live in and a giant wheel. True we didn't know better not using shredded newspaper. This was in the 90s 🤦🏻♀️
Hey! Love the rat videos, idk if someone already mentioned it but using rags like that can be a bit dangerous because of how rats like to shred. I've heard of rats getting choked, losing toes, ect from those kinds of rags! :x What I use to do was either buy baby blankets (small like 24x24 fleece) from the dollar tree or go to a craft store and buy scrap fabric. :) Both of which work great! Also, you can make extra hammocks or hanging tubes out of cloth table mats. :) Also, you might want to put the sharp bits of the zip ties outside the cage or file them they can be pretty sharp. :x
Be careful with alfalfa rats cant digest it:)
lyric angel can they have timothy hay
“It’s 100 degrees in here” you mean 99? 😉
the boys i don’t get it
zelilah it’s a 99c store
paige k the joke wasn’t funny
zelilah I didn’t say it was, you just said you don’t get it.
paige k okay?? 💀💀
Love the liners! They are what I use for my guinea pigs and I also get obsessed with new fleece patterns.
skinnypigs1
I love your channel!
Also is it good if your guinea pig starts squealing like really loud when you walk up to their cage when I am late on the veggies. Like are they mad at me for being 30 minutes late or are they excited that I am here now. Lol
Someone your trying to hard to get noticed dude
Hamzter Gurl TV
?
Someone they're just really excited to see you since you're the food person.
Aww Kristen... how adorably loving you are to animals and your pets. Truly admirable!
As soon as she said "alfalfa and hay cubes" I immediately had to check to make sure someone had already told her that it was very bad for them... so glad to see it seems that more people than not have been educating her - as opposed to *being* educated by her mistake.
Your boys look like sweet lumps, I'm glad you keep rats. More people need to know how amazing they are..... 🐀
Great video love your rats! Just a tip like some others have already said rats shouldnt have alfalfa hay.
Cheers
I'm really liking the animal loving side of you, please keep making pet videos :)
I love how much you love your animals! It really shows when you do things like this and when you talk about rescuing animals. I've become much more informed and educated on many types of animals. I always thought rats and mice were "gross." Maybe because of the way television showcases them.. but after watching videos such as yours, I realize that my impression of them is so so wrong! They seem like such sweet creatures! So thank you for your videos. I'm sure they help and inform many!
Awww they love it!!
Those balls are going to be a hit for all the animals..good haul sister!!! By the way, awesome cage set up. Your animals are livin the life. Good job mama.🐶🐇🐹🐀🦎
That’s literally me :.
Me: walks into 99 cent store
Me : sees something 1.99
also me : sir are you false advertising I’m pretty sure thats illegal
I love how you did up their place! I know my rats LOVE to explore new additions to the cage. The are so curious and open to changes, it really stimulates them. Lovely little critters❤❤🌟🐭🐭
Aw they love it!
Oh bravo!👏😁 That looks like tons of fun Kristen, love your creativity! 🐭🐁💓
“Just shopping for the kids at the 99cents store ... such a cool mom 😉” 😂😂😂😂
So excited to see you post! Love both your channels!! I Love seeing your hauls!!💛💛💛💛
girl your makeup is amazing!!
The wheel might be too small for them to use comfortably?!
Brooke Gonzalez I like the 12" flying saucer for rats. I feel like since it's flatter there's no curve to worry about.
I Pet Zombies we bought giant wheels for our hedgehogs, they kept flying off the saucers, and they run all the time on them. But they are huge wheels that guinea pigs can fit in.
Was thinking the same thing, maybe makes their spine curve too much.
skinnypigs1 I got ours on Amazon for about $23. If anyone is interested I can put in a link so you can see what I mean about giant wheel.
no its not its 16" for males and 14" for females, uk regulation
I have that pink basket and I use it to refill my hamster water bottles! The boys are so cute! Now I really want rats!🧡
I'm so glad you choose to create an animal channel for your pets...what a great idea! 🐾🐾
Girl I legit love everything you do and stand for. Hands down my #1
I've been looking for someone to do a bunny haul but from a thrift store. I'll settle for a rat haul from the dollar store ❤
Awww this was a perfect relaxing Saturday video :) this one put a big smile on my face!!! XO
This makes me so happy!!
I do $ store hauls every week! Love this video
Do you have a P.O box?!? 📦
That's awesome! I do it's 1611 S Rancho Santa Fe Rd Suite A, San Marcos CA 92078
Kristenleannimal do your rats have any “ favorite hammock colors” lol
Kristenleannimal Don’t feed it hay.
I love watching people take good care of their animals 💜
They are so cute! The cage looks so beautiful.
Love it!!
They are super cute. Great cage!!! I once bought gift bag shred for their dig boxes. Please don't forget to cover their wire stairs - they can get bumblefoot. I used a pair of old jeans to cover mine. I bought plastic dinosaurs at Family Dollar and zip tied them to the walls. It's so cute cuz it's like a boys room
Julie Nolan Wire doesnt cause bumblefoot. Its a myth...
BF is caused by dirtyness and bacteria
+Autumn Graas Ok. Regardless, would you enjoy walking barefoot on a wire floor?
Julie Nolan You cant cover every part of a wire cage. My rats climb all over the sides just like every other rat and have no problem. That is the smallest bit of wire exposed Ive ever seen someone complain about. Her cage is fine, her rats are fine and so are mine its a myth, they look healthy thats all that matters. Just clerifying that
Julie Nolan and yes, yes I would. I go barefoot everywhere. 😊
wire ramps can’t cause bumblefoot! lmao
Thank you for the tips! I'm going to the canadian dollar store NOW!!! Let me find those basket!!
Does pet revolution delivers in canada???
Love love LOVEEEEEE your rats! So cutie, so fluffy ! I just want to give them kisses xxx
Needed to Screenshot cause your eye-make-up is so so so so pretty😍😍😍
Sooo awesome! Always fun to buy stuff for the animals❤️❤️❤️
You call that room messy?
Girl you have not seen an unorganized teenager’s room!!!
*cough* *cough* erm mine
Your rats probably don’t use the wheel cuz it’s too small. Small wheels bend their spine in an unnatural way that can cause serious health issues and is uncomfortable for them.
Grace kate that’s a 12 inch wheel... it’s the right size;)
Rats shouldnt have wheels in general since its bad for them:(
My hamsters has her wheel..is mine too big? Or is there no such thing as too big
Erika H it’s fine:)
X Gacha_babe X depends. What kind of hamster do you have?
you just got yourself a new subscriber! the boys are so cuuute
Your animals are living the sweet life.... wow, penthouse living! Nice job Kristen 💕
That eye shadow though
That wheel is too small for them. They need the next size up.
Ok, folks, I hope when I'm old and feeble, Kristen Leanne will build me up a play area to keep me happy and active! Love it, Kristee!!
literally love your eyeshadow
3:13 well they did say 99 CENT store which doesn’t include dollars
THUMBS UP FOR RYAN
Wow, love it. Nice to see someone care so much for their pets. you can tell they love the new enrichment :)
Just love it
When your rats have better lives than yours:
👏
Relatable. I wish I could just chill in a hammock all day 😂
Can u show them playing more????
This video just makes me happy. Goals for my new home.
I love your hair to! Pink when it's down and when it's pulled back it's really pretty to! 😍 loved the haul
Love u girl! Love how much you love and take care of your animals 💜
👍🏻 Ryan
awe thanks! I try to do what I can!
You are doing a great job! I’ve had rats and an hamster I named him Elvis lol.
Hi! Love your channel and your ratties ❤️. Um, rats can’t digest hay and it can give them an intestinal blockage 😳. So, take those bad boys out of their food regimen ❤️🐀. Otherwise, beautiful setup and spoiled rats!😁
She Talks In Circles hay is fine
ScenicRouteSam1 no, it’s not. Don’t own rats if you don’t do your research. Necropsy have been done on rats who have been given Timothy hay, and it has been PROVEN to cause intestinal blockages...👎🏻
She Talks In Circles have you got a link to a peer reviewed study? I give my Rats hay and they’re fine, the problem is flavoured hay, like snak shaks, which have added sweetener to trick them into thinking it’s food
died- no it's not- do your research. Your rats are clearly not in very good hands.
ScenicRouteSam1 honey, sometimes animals are struggling or even dying even though they may seem fine. My guinea pIg past away because she had a kidney problem, and no one could see it. So they might die any day now, even though it might seem that they’re fine.
Love your makeup and hair!!!!!!
How fun!! Thank you for sharing!
Or cause the wheel is extremely small, you should do your research before
You should’ve went to dollar tree! Everything we sell is actually a dollar! :)
Unless you are in Canada, I think. It's 1.25 there (:
Thanks for the ideas of the baskets from the dollar store! I totally just did this today after seeing your video. Love how creative you are!
I LOVE your eye makeup! And the guys colored beard! AWESOME!!!
Dollar general is like that... if it's more than a dollar don't put it in your fn store!
Terri's TH-cam Well it is technically a dollar...just five of them added together...
Dollar General isn't supposed to be a dollar store it's just like a much smaller Wal-Mart
Hannah Kretsinger 🙈
Does this make anyone else want to get pet rats??
I'm watching this because I have pet rats lol
Tonali Un I have two they are great!
Super cute and fun!
I’ve been looking for new liners and those are fantastic
It's not a good idea to give your ratties alfalfa because they cant digested it well.
Nugget just asking do you have to give sawdust and stuff or can you just put stuff like fleece in a rat cage
LolitaxxDelena sawdust is extremely dangerous for rats
Guys I know you like to correct but let’s spread positivity or say it in a nicer way
That is such an awesome set up! Great job!
Oh GURL love your makeup
Happy babies! ❤️❤️❤️
I love this! ♥️♥️
Your so creative Kristen... there so cute !!💗💗
Such a fun video!!!!
I love how you transformed the cage!
Awe... they love it!!! Great setup Kristen!!! :)))))
Love seeing the pet fam 😍😍😍
You are such a good human being 😍 this makes me so happy 💓x
You’re soooo naturally pretty with out make up omg😫😍
This is so cute!
Awesome rat cage makeover, just loved seeing this video.
Love your videos by the way love your makeup 😍
I love how colorful you both are! Your eyes are beautiful even without make up.
I love your videos ;D Thank you!!
This was super cute!
YOUR MAKEUP IS GORGGG😍😍😍
This is such a great idea!
Great video! Dollar store baskets are a god send. I like to fill mine with hay. They don’t eat it but they love nesting in it! It’s absorbent too but it does get kinda messy with the fleece
They are so cute! 💖
Eye makeup is bomb!!!!
Awh I love all your pets!! The rats are gorgeous! Also your cage is amazing - very spacious 😁
Got to be the three best cared for rats ever !
i love your eye shadow ❤️
Your style is gorgeous 😍😍💖💖
