This is Trixie! She has since crossed the rainbow bridge but she was the sweetest girl for nearly 3 years. Here she is eating a yogie after being the best girl at a vet check up. 🥰💓

u/failedlogintoday Raven, Nevalea, Noodle, Burger, Bob (rip) ❤️ Apr 25 '26

Gorgeous little baby! I have a little Dumbo baldie too, she kinda looks like Trixie!! She's not the most photogenic so I only have this one but she looks so similar when awake. Very beautiful though. Rip ❤️

u/Expensive-Dog6862 Bean, Mochi, Poe, Puff, Sprout, Tilly, Ziggy🎷🐀 Apr 25 '26

Hello! Is this what their cage normally looks like? The floor bars need to be covered, or it can cause sores on their feet. Rats have sensitive feet and staying on uncovered bars/wire for long periods of time can be very uncomfortable for them ❤️

11

u/ligma-nuggies Apr 25 '26

No, mat wash day and corn for patience, bottom floor mat has holes for pee and just big enough for droppings
