Well my baby ratties opened thier eyes on Christmas day! Isn't that just too cool? AND I did something very bad, but I am sorry I just could not let these poor innocent babies sit in that pet shop anymore!!! I went to Scamps and my god how discusting they are. And I know first hand considering I used to work there. What the heck was I thinking working THERE?
I went in there to count the many different things I could find wrong that day like I normally do and in one 10 gallon tank they had a doe, no more than 7 frickin weeks with babies! She was so stressed the babies hadn't been nursed and they were all starving. So I went to go talk to the stupid girl who works there and told her I wanted to take the babies. She threw a fit and said they couldn't sell babies, well I DON"T CARE! They were going home with ME, period. No matter if I had to break the case and take them myself.
I explained to her that I bred rats, and had years of experience doing so, and this was just not right. I told her the babies would have a better chance if they came home with me and I gave them to Honey to nurse. I told them I had a lactating doe who would gladly take these poor babies in. SHE MADE ME BUY THEM! For two bucks each. I would have taken the mom and all the babies, but I withheld tears and didn't do it. I took the two babies (highwhites) that I knew I could easily place and the ones who had risk for megacolon. I knew if they developed megacolon the store would just throw them in the freezer that all the other crappy petshops. BRB continue in another post so I don't lose this.
