A ‘Pizza’ the Action
Ronnie and Derek were fed some pizza crust which they loved. Ronnie tried to steal Derek’s and ended up chasing him around the cage, resulting in a tug-of-war and lots of squeaking – see videos below!

Some small pieces of concrete and a brick have been added to Ronnie and Derek’s cage, in places where they walk the most, to help wear down their nails (see images below – click to enlarge). Using something like sandpaper as a floor covering for this is not suitable as the rats could graze their feet and get infections.
This info has been added to the Care page.
Watch Ronnie and Derek having a food fight over a rat treat this afternoon!
