    Used to work on a rat farm. The farm owners would kill the rats that were sick or had strokes, I took as many of them as I could home and fixed them up, made them better. I started with about 40 of them, but after some unintended breeding incidents between the males and females, 7 litters later, I have roughly 100 of them separated into 3 colonies. Have pretty much every kind of rat under the sun, I even had a minx, but she unfortunately died early as minxs commonly do.
    Guess you could say that my rats will never go without companionship lol. They love sleeping together, so I will often times find up to 15 of them stacked on top of one another in one of their hammocks and it's the funniest thing. They are such underrated pets.

      +Dressy Seagull There's this little thing called 'moderation'... That's an awful lot to take care of all at once. I don't mean to be rude or anything but hoarding is a thing... It's great that you helped them out though, but perhaps you should rehome some, if you haven't already? I suppose if they're all well taken care of and loved that it's none of my concern, though. So... hey. If you're able to handle that many at once, more power to you, I guess? It just sounds like a shocking amount to an outsider looking in!

    • @DressySeagull

      It had nothing to do with hoarding, my predicament is a little more unique than one might think. The owners of the farm I worked at would grab the sick rats by their tails and wack them off of doors to kill them. That, or they would gas them in containers with high amounts of CO2, which is extremely inhumane because high concentrations of CO2 will burn and irritate their lungs before they suffocate. If they weren't sick, often times they would die anyway because escaped rats would chew out their water lines and drown them, sometimes they would die of hypothermia, or even kill each other because of the overcrowded conditions. Few people know what it is like to have to dispose of dozens of cold, mangled corpses knowing that they used to be curious, innocent creatures. This is pretty common, often times farms don't treat their livestock with the dignity and respect they deserve. This is one of the evils of humanity. I felt it was my moral obligation as a human to take as many as possible, leave, and give them a better home. I understand how it could look to outsiders at first glance and appreciate your concern for their well being, I'm positive you are a very responsible and loving pet owner, but if you had seen the things I had you might have done the same. I did manage to re-home some of them, but finding homes for so many of them is an undertaking I've been unable to do. I'm stuck with my rats for the next few years, but I see it as a blessing and opportunity to do good more than a condemnation. They are well cared for and have everything they need to live comfortable lives.

      Dressy Seagull I'm so sorry to hear that. I can understand where you're coming from. It's good that they're all well taken care of and such now, though. You sound like a real sweetheart for doing what you're doing. I commend your efforts. :)

    • @gwynnethsmith9226
      @gwynnethsmith9226 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      I understand the phobia. My phobia is off dead things. I can handle live rats, snakes or spiders just fine. A dead one will frank me out. My whole body tenses up. It's so jarring!
      Rats are the most loving of the rodents. A hamster with bite more often. Other rodents will kill each other's babies. A mother Rat will often take care of any babies. Even other species. They love their owners and they can even learn tricks like dogs. ♥️ I hope someday you overcome your fear of them

      There's nothing to be afraid of, as they don't carry diseases and won't bite. At most they'll nibble on your fingers.

    Omg!!! XD you're SUCH a great help!! You see I always hated rats, and when my cousins got a few I was (can't believe I felt this....DX) ABSOLUTELY disgusted. But I never met them, judgmental of me right? Like wtf??? Well I was paying class dues to the Student Advisor a few days ago and a saw 2 of them and I stayed away until she threatened to not give me my receipt until I have at least met them. Not only did I get my receipt, I got to pet, play, and hold them. It was such a shocker that they were so amazing that now I want one of my own, BUT I need to do my research! XD my mom already said no but my mom loves people that are educated and have answers to her 1000+ questions. XD I will work hard on my research, and hopefully, convince my mom in allowing me to get one. Again, THANK YOU, every bit of information counts!!!

    • @suitedzombie9846
      @suitedzombie9846 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Hey, it took me 3 years to finally get my rats, after talking my mom's head off XD I just told her the facts! They're called Mini Dogs, not just because of their loyalty, but because of how hard of work it is. I told her rats are cleaner than cats and dogs, and smarter than most dogs, too! They spend most of their times cleaning themselves and keeping their ginormous cages clean, and most are much nicer than mice and hamsters, depending on their background. I hope I'm not too late for you to read this!

      I moved out into the garage in our new home and said I've moved out. She said that's not what I meant. I laughed and said it's good enough. Please? I'm 25. (Disabled by chronic pain- mum's my full time carer) she said fine. As long as i don't have to go near them. She came with me to get them, and even fed them whilst I away for a couple weeks at a friend's. They must be growing on her somehow. She doesn't want to admit it. 😂 also, been asking for 10 years. So about time! 😜 got them 3 months ago. 😍

    Very informative! I used to have smooth haired hooded rats. Very sweet, intelligent, and clean pets. They used to have the run of the house and they'd go into their cage to use the restroom. One of my dogs wouldn't mind if they crawled up his legs and ride on his back. Big Doberman with rats riding on him! When I retire and spend more time at home I'd like to have rats again. Great little critters!

      PEACHY PETPARADISE
      : Domestic rats are wonderful. I come into contact, even with my animal loving friends, that get freaked out about snakes and rats. Something about the long tail and slithery bodies. One of these days, I hope to fully retire and educate people about how domestic rats are sweet, gentle, and very smart critters. Keep up the good work with your videos. I wonder how hamsters are always considered cute and rats are not. Hamsters are cute dimwits compared to rats.

      Agent hamsters were never intended to be "pets" they are not suited to captivity and are completely miserable not free. That's why they go crazy trying to break out. its heart wrenching to know they run 2-5 miles anight in the wild and are forced to live it captivity is just too cruel for words. Rattielove is the best

    Good to know that others in the world are interrested in rats. I cant have a rat because I have no good place in my home to put the cage. And because i have a cat.

    • @JinxiiMinx
      @JinxiiMinx 9 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      +Idunn Rønningen Aside from not having a good place in your home to have one, it's actually okay to have rats when you own a cat or several. It's key to find out if your cat is highly predatory or not. ALL cats are predators, obviously, and it's a hard wired instinct to hunt, however some people's cats are just genuinely laid back and get along great with the rats. Some are even afraid of the rats, because unlike mice, they move a bit slower and tend to be considered less as prey. However, NEVER leave them unsupervised around your cat(s) and always make sure that your feline companions can't get their paws into your rat's cage. Other than that, they tend to live harmoniously together, so long as your cat isn't a highly hunting-driven type. Hope this helps, if ever you live somewhere you can actually get some ratties! :)

      I have two cats, yet I also HAD three rats. I have two now because of the horrible living condition Petco's breeders care for them. Basically they live in small bins, packed with tons of rats. When one rat dies, they are aloud to do this...EAT THE DEAD RAT!!! Some are so hungry that they eat the weakest rat ALIVE! How dare they! >:[

    • @snowpawzvideos
      @snowpawzvideos 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If you have enough hides in the cage, then the cats won't be an issue. You could introduce the cats to the ratless cage so they're uninterested in it. Whenever the rats see the cat, they can just hide & the cat can't harass them.

    3:15 ~ These are actually called 'Werewolf' rats now because of this unique ability to lose and regrow fur in symmetrical patterns like that.

  • @marie-janamehl8372
    @marie-janamehl8372 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Really nice and informative video:)
    I think its important to talk about how cruel some of the breeds are...
    Rats with no tail have a really hard time keeping there balance and climbing...
    Rats with no fur tend to have bone problems, are really sensitive to temperature changes and tend to get sick allot easier...
    Rex also have curled whiskers which makes them lose orientation
    The worst is the rubble rex
    Please don't support cruel breeding and research before getting a certain breed 💛🌻

    8. Nixie- black English Irish dumbo
    9. Unamed- American blue (light shade of blue) Rex dumbo

    One of my boys was champagne hooded! He had ruby-eyes and a white flash on his head!
    We used to parallax dance a lot, so he was super-blind, but his defence-mechanism was that he grew to an ENORMOUS size! He was such a great lil guy.
    Currently just got a pair of females yesterday and I'm trying to identify one of them, has a blue/grey solid-coloured coat.
    Thanks for the knowledge!

    I had a mostly black rat named Vincent and he had the most adorable white belly, pink tail, ears, nose, and feet and brown eyes. he lived to be 3 years old and was my best friend. he was so calm and never bit and just wanted to snuggle and groom you. Best pet I've ever had. Rats are amazing and should be more common since they are more hygenic, friendly, and interactive than most hamsters. Hamsters will bite your kids, rats are too sweet to even think of it! My mother was very unhappy when I brought him home but ended up absolutely loving him after spending time with him. I think everyone would love pet rats if they gave them the chance

    I have 3 girls. One is blue hooded with dumbo ears, a blue berkshire with BIG standard ears, and my favourite girl, a black/agouti irish with dumbo ears, her fur is softer and fluffier than the others.. maybe she is partial rex? I have allergies so I bath them at least once a week. :) They hate it but they are sooooo soft and silky.

    @noevilea624 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    I bought 2 top eared ruby eyed - a male and female both what I call a caramel colour but is this what you refer to as beige.
    Male is all caramel but the female is all white with a caramel hoody so i called her Hoody.
    Called the male Kane as in cane as in sugar cane heated gives a caramel colour.
    I can see why they are called ruby eyed but mine are more like the colour of blood..

    • @peachypetparadise27
      @peachypetparadise27  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      She sounds like a fawn hooded or beige hooded, yes the ruby eyes can differ, some can be more red looking and others can be light to medium, its a range of red and pink shades in their eyes.

    • @noevilea624
      @noevilea624 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      PEACHY PETPARADISE ok thanks. Although I prefer fawn or caramel - beige sounds so 70`s or 80`s ( LOL ) but I know what you mean.
      The red eyes look really cool - all my other rats have had black eyes so far.

    Um peachy my rat pebbles has a grey saddle like colour across his Back which goes down to his tail and eyes. What is this one called? Is it called saddle? I will video them and put them on TH-cam and if you want if you could check the video out and tell me what u think about my rats and the cage then that would be very helpful! Thanks!

    • @peachypetparadise27

      There are only a few differences which is they are obviously smaller in size and this means the bar spacing must be even smaller than for a standard rat, so half of what spacing should be, so half an inch. They are very active most of the time too :)

  • @ratlifeforever2546
    @ratlifeforever2546 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Our boys our Dumbo rats but the cream colored one I don't know what you would call his color type.. he has brown eyes until you shine a light near them, then they turn kinda red looking.. but I take that he can't see well because when he is looking at something he will sway his head from side to side like he is trying to focus.. also they're apparently done growing and they aren't very big at all.. Weasel is the one with the grey on his head and he is much bigger than Fattie, the cream one..we named him Fattie because he was a little butter ball when they was babies but Weasel out grew him fast in length and weight.. now Weasel is the little fatty, they may be dwarfs I'm not sure.. they're very soft and smaller

    • @peachypetparadise27
      @peachypetparadise27  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Rats have poor eye sight in general anyway and swaying their heads from side to side is normal :) As for whether they are dwarfs or not, maybe you could send me some clear photos of them via my gmail which is Peachyspetparadise@gmail.com then I could clarify to you what they are :)

    @petesuba3221 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    I had a hooded Rat for about 5 yrs until he passed, he was my Buddy, used to ride around on my shoulder and would always give me kisses. One day I checked on him and he seemed so motionless and I thought he had died, and when I gently touched him he jumped up almost scared to death, it took me quite a few minutes to get him calmed down. He would even come when I called his name. He would always wonder what kind of snack I was eating and wanted to sample it himself also. I still miss Sqeaker, when I got him he was the smallest runt out of his siblings. Like I said we had an awesome loving relationship together. And my cats wouldn't even bother him or his siblings because we raised all of them together when they were kittens etc. If I had another chance to get as great of a personality as he had in another pet rat I would surely get him or her.

    Also, I am worried about the rare diseases spread such as rat bite fever since I can only get pet store rats (I haven't heard about the disease until recently) I need help deciding if it is a good idea to buy a rat. They are remarkable pets, and I loved all the rats I had however I don't want to risk disease. Please help me make the right decision.

    • @peachypetparadise27
      @peachypetparadise27  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      No pet rats don't carry any disease that can harm us humans. There have been very few cases where a domestic rat has actually carried that. Wild rats are what carry that disease. Honestly there is no risk of you actually getting a harmful disease from pet rats. If thats the only thing you are worried about, then yes you are making the right decision. Just make sure you have done tons of research about them before getting them,they are a lot of work but they are rewarding at the same time if from the right place and given the correct care. Make sure you know all about their care, what essentials they will require, I have videos on that, that might help you but I would defiantly research as much as you can and find out whether they are the right pet for you. And fill free to ask plenty of questions to me, I will reply back as soon as I can :)

      ***** They were a surprise christmas gift and unfortunately from a pet shop. But I always suggest rescuing or buying from a good well experienced rat breeder. Glad you are aware of pet shops. I would try looking for a rescue, or if there is an adoption section in the pet shops then to try that and see if there are any rats in need of a home :)

Anyway I will continue my search! Thanks for replying, love your videos by the way they are SO interesting. And you're very pretty! 😘

    @bokettooo 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi Peachy Pet Paradise! I'm considering getting a small animal, but I can't decide between a hamster or a rat. The only problems with hamsters is that they're nocturnal and aren't as affectionate as rats, but they're quite cute. Do you think you can give me some advice on which to choose price wise and also based off animal bonding? Thank you so much :)
    ~Star

    • @peachypetparadise27
      @peachypetparadise27  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Honestly it really depends on you. The first thing I want to cover is companionship. Hamsters don't actually need companionship and can happily live on their own and species like Syrians and Chinese are a solitary species anyway so they must be alone. However with rats, companionship is vital. Rats are pack animals like wolves and depend on the companionship of their own kind. They can get very lonely, stressed and even depressed without it. Human companionship is never enough to replace to the companionship of a rats and there are things we as humans can not give to rats like rats can and they will never live as much of happy of a life as they would with their own kind. So you must be able to have more than one rat. If you are only allowed on pet o would only like one then I would say a hamster would be more for you.
      The second thing I want to cover is time, how much time you have during the day as there is a big difference between hamsters and rats with time. Rats are a day time and night time commitment whereas hamsters are mainly a night time commitment. I think if you're currently at school or work long hours and don't have much time during the day then rats may not be the best pet for you. A hamster you could play with at nighttime so it doesn't really matter how long you work during the day but with rats, they can get bored extremely easy and it can lead behavioral problems if left so long by themselves. You need to provide at least 3 hours of playtime and attention to your rats everyday and that can be quite a responsibility for someone who is out most of the time. So I would say if you are hardly at home then rats wouldn't be the best pet for you. But if you are and feel you could provide them with the time that they need then they should be a great pet for you.
      In terms of of prices, I would say a hamster cage is usually cheaper than a rat cage and supplies in general are a bit cheaper when it comes to hamsters than for rats but you can still own both on a budget and if so, they can be as affordable as each other. But when it comes to vet bills, rats can be very expensive. If you have females then they are prone to tumors and so and vet trips and treatment will be expensive. Hamsters can also be expensive in terms of vet trips but they usually don't require as many vet trips as rats do.
      Now in terms of personality, both can be just as affectionate. Hamsters are affectionate, I have had many affectionate hamsters who have happily bonded with me and enjoy my company, so you shouldn't be concerned about who would be more affectionate. But if you are wanting a pet that you can do tricks with then rats without a doubt rats would be more for you. They are highly intelligent and are able to learn many complex tricks that you cannot teach hamsters or most other rodents for that matter :) I hope this has given you some insight into both pets, these are just the main important differences but as I said it really depends on you. I hope this helped you decide!

    I have an agouti rat in my group that acts very very odd compared to everyone else. He does look just like wild rats but acts the exact opposite, I am worried he may be depressed as he never moves from his hammock night and day unless it's for food and water

    • @peachypetparadise27
      @peachypetparadise27  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      He could just be very lazy. You will always get that super energetic one of the group and the laziest one that doesn't want to do much. Has he always been this way? If he went from being more active to not wanting to do much then that could be a health problem, personality changes usually are. But if he has always been like this then it isn't anything you should worry about and he is just naturally lazy. If not and he does seem quite depressed, you could try giving him a treat and see if he budges or acts a little excited. Give him more love, cuddles if he likes them and spoil him more. Hopefully he will cheer up soon :)

      Well rats being pack animals do better in groups anyway but they can still happily live as a pair. But another benefit to having three is that if one were to pass before the others, then your remaining two would still have each other and not be alone or need to be bond with a new rat so it also saves you having to bond two rats that don't know each other in future :)

      Why would you be getting a wild rat? Pet rats are nothing like wild rats and their fur is more softer for sure, also you would need to get two or more, never one please never keep rats by themselves as they can get very lonely and stressed from it ,they are very social need companionship of their own kind at all times.

    albino(pronounced al-buy-noh) rats, or albinism, is actually a skin/fur condition where they have a lack of pigment in their entire body, which is what causes the pure-white fur & red eyes. these kinds of animals may also have a sensitivity to light & sunburn, along with other skin conditions associated with that.
    apologies if this sounds rude, i just wanted to elaborate on the albinos a bit!
