These boys came to us on 3/11/21 from a home that had too many rats.
Fostered by Jamie in Concord, NH.
UPDATE 3/20/21:
“Harry, Jerrod, & Steve are very bonded. Harry & Jerrod are big boys with Steve being the relative “peanut” of the group.
All four are getting a little more comfortable with being handled each day.”
UPDATE 4/19/21:
“Mr. Big is still someone you do not want to put your fingers near when he is in an enclosed area inside the cage (i.e. space ball, hut, box, etc.). In open areas (inside & out of cage), he is fine being picked up, pet, handled, etc. When he’s in the cage with his head sticking out of a space pod, I’ll gently stroke his cheeks and the top of his head with an old toothbrush. He loves free roam time and comes out of his cage readily. He loves to explore & climb. He has zero awareness or fear of how high up he so you want to be careful when he tries to jump down from heights.
Jerrod is a sweetheart and old soul. He loves being in his space ball in the cage and really would just prefer to be in his cage. I frequently have to take him out for free roam. He likes to explore for hidden treats while out and about, but after 10 minutes or so, he’s looking to get back in the cage. He has no problem being handled, pet, scritched in or out of the cage. He loves to come out on the couch to watch TV and settle under a sweatshirt to be scritched until he falls asleep. My guess is if you could free roam him in an area where the cage wasn’t present he’d do better.”
