Do you keep the rat outside or inside? If inside how did the fox get to him?



I think it is a personal choice and you will know when the time is right. However, it isn't fair to bring an animal into a situation where they could possibly get hurt or killed and if the fox got to your rat once then most likly it could get to the new one too.

If you keep your rat outside I would not recomend getting another one, rats, or any other kind of small animal are not outside pets they should be kept inside where it is safe for them.
