It's now been 10 days since i've seen Dio. I was supposed to be going to the OH's tonight but he cancelled at the last minute for no reason so will now have to wait a week or 2 more before i get a chance to see Dio again. I really wanted to take a picture of him all blue as well  I'm missing his first shed with us.
I'm definately missing Dio more than the OH. The most annoying thing is i paid for Dio and the viv and i don't even get to see him. |

You can get tailless one's now which seems to be a bit pointless as thats one of a rats best features.
Drunk rat is quite funny. She will drink it out of your glass if you keep it still for long enough. |

Thanks for that info, I never knew they were different from wild ones. I like the hairless ones they are freaky looking and I would have to knit it a jumper (well someone who can knit would).
haha rat ar5ed rats! My dog once knocked over a bottle of beer and drank it off the floor while I was out the room, poor fella was legless. All over the place, had to put him to bed. |

Here the reason why http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fancy_rat
I've just found loads of videos of my rats drinking wine and beer. Forgot i had them. |

This may be a stupid question but I get the hooded bit but what makes it fancy? (painted toenails?) |

Watching all these youtube video's is making me want more rats lol. I think i may have to find all my videos of mine. I've already told the OH hooded fancy rats are banned from Dio'd diet as thats what all mine have been. |

I had a mouse a few years back that was super tame and would sit watching TV but I never knew you could train them. I'll never feel the same feeding Duke again lol. |

They are great. You can train them just like a dog. Unfortunately i couldn't train mine as they were/are female and i rehomed them when they were 8 months old so were a bit too old to learn. My first rat was great. He learnt to resond to his name and learnt a couple of trick. He was such a lap rat too he loved curling up and going to sleep on my chest. |

Knowing Asti it'd be Dio sleeping with 1 eye open lol. That would be a good idea. Shame i can't train Dio to bite him everytime he picks him up or poop on him. |

Unlucky. I think the rat might sleep with 1 eye open if there was a snake in the room. You'll have to setup a webcam in the viv so you can log on and check in on him. |

I'm not allowed to have him here as my friend who i rent my room off doesn't like snakes and i don't think my rat would like him either. |

LOL, got yourself a reliable keeper there! You should move little Dio to yours, I'd go mad if I couldn't check on my lot every day. |
