thanx for all ur help...and i only tried the chicken bone thing twice, but that was a while ago...i think i have finally convinced my mom to let me take her to the vet....its just hard now that shes quitting her job and stuff.....and im all outta money since my last vet visit....$50 dollars to find out i was taking good care of my rat....gosh, i could have told him that lol.....but i think my mom can scrounge up some money somewhere....or i could bribe her...(thats the sneaky trick i used to get my other rat mwahahaha) her teeth arent all that bad, really, most are just not there....kinda strange...they are a pure white and the ones that are left look fine...just sorta worried...hey, do any of u know why she has a brown streak on one of her teeth? the others are all white, but one has a brown stripe on it...when i brush her teeth it doesnt come off....
thanx for being understanding....the last forum i went to would have bombarded me for my mothers extremities....
