So I said ok but do you mean you are rehoming the rat or finding another cage. The lady then says would I take the rat with the cage and described the cage.

The cage sounds fine and the rat is female so can be bonded to my group of 7 so I said ok fine. Then she tells me her daughter whose rat it is says no even though she dosnt even handle the rat. Ive now just spent the past half hour trying to explain nicely that it's unfair to keep rats by themselves and convince her she would better here.... All I wanted was a blummin cage! Finally the daughter has agreed but I could've done without all the agro.
