Yes they are, and the rat in question is still here too. I did not want to have to advertise him. I did not want to have to advertise any of my rats. If I had not been threatened to be made homeless I wouldn;t have had to.

All I wanted for him at the time was for him to go to a home with other rats that he would get on with. I am not cruel. It is cruel to keep a rat on it's own. I would have bought another couple to keep him company but I couldn't., because otherwise I would have NO HOUSE.

He is now happily living with 4 of his sons

And no need to PM you, the advert is here for anyone who is interested.

Things have changed for me personally now. I no longer have to worry about keeping my rats and losing my house. I do not wish to ever rehome any of my rats, otherwise I wouldn;t get them in the first place.

Peace

That is the only rat I have advertised with a price. That is the one that was advertised because he didn't get on with my other rats.

I am happy to admit what I have done in the past. All you are doing is losing out on a good home for some of the babies you have with you *shrugs* your loss, not mine.

Peace

Fair do`s, what about the rest? thats only 2 pages of search results from the 5 on one forum.

3 female agouti rats for sale! - Reptile Forums UK
Rats and cage for sale! - Reptile Forums UK
etc etc.

You may have to move again, and rehome/sell more rats, i dont really want these being sold on, they could be bred from, or culled, or anything, id rather they live out their days in 1 home.

I dont think its worth the risk of them being rehomed, and going to the sort of people who breed from rescues or petshop rats.

Red still has those rats. Not that it is ANY of your business!!!!!

You really should get your facts right before you bad mouth people!!!!

You have missed out on a brilliant home for those babies.

There is no need for your damn right rudeness at all. She simply offered (out of the kindness of her heart) to give them a loving FOREVER home, but you are being so petty its unbelievable!!!

I bet these rats will end up as snake food and who is to blame but you???!

I will have to move agian. Next year. Then I will be staying in oxford for 5 years to do my degree. In a house owned by by my grandparents, who don't care how many pets I have.

They would live out their days in one home. Mine. But hey your loss *shrugs and leaves*

Peace

No they wont end up as snake food.., thats the whole idea of them going to people who i TRUST, and who i know will do the best they can for them.

This matter is over, i told akai chan no, that is my descision, and i said that in a PM message a while ago.

Im not being petty either, i said no for one reason , however that wasnt good enough, so i gave another reason as to why not, and that wasnt good enough....so i illustrated quite plainly why i would not be comfortable for them to be homed to her.

At the end of the day, there is no point in being offended if your application isnt accepted, not everybody fits the criteria for homing?

different rescues all have different criteria, its not personal, its just things which stack up, please dont take the outcome personally, thats just how it is.

Akai chan took it upon herself to bring a matter which was already sorted privately, out into the open to try and shame me? embarass me? discredit me?
and you say i am being petty?

I brought it up because I hadn;t recieved a reply to my PM. What you said in the PM was not something I can really forget and I do not like it when my credibility is questioned based on what you have 'heard from other people' (I'd like to ask who, to be honest). I am sorry that this has become a public matter. I hope you find your rats a good home.

Peace

This thread has gone waaaaayyyy off subject! But I will obviously defend my friend Akai-Chan, as she would have been an absolutely amazing forever owner for these rats!! If you had only got to know her without jumping to conclusions then you would have seen how completely happy and healthy all of her pets are!!

Whatever though, I am now leaving this thread as you have started a completely useless argument, when 99.99% of this entire forum will agree with Akai!! I hope you honestly find good homes for them, I wouldn't be surprised if they ended up as feeders because you had a good "feeling" about someone, but nonetheless, I am leaving!
