Squeaks when you reach to pick him up and tries to get out of your hands. He&#8217;s to large to move quickly though haha! This behavior has improved over time.<\/p>\n<p>Beetle &#8211; A little jumpy about being picked up. Moves quickly. Will climb all over you once comfortable.<\/p>\n<p>They all like to explore, especially Beetle. All the boys come to the front of the cage to look for snacks, but often seem uninterested in what I have to offer! They seem to prefer veggies though. They have access to a litter box but do not seem to go there more than anywhere else. The boys have come into contact with a dog while in their cage and were interested as opposed to afraid. The older boys box and wrestle a bit.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>UPDATE 8\/25\/19:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Beetle is a really nice rat! Small for a male! He is very social and easy to take out of the cage. He is youthful and loves running around and exploring. Because of this, he only tolerates being held for 7 or 8 minutes at a time before getting antsy. It&#8217;s more fun to see him run around anyways!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>ADOPTED:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><del>#2019223N, &#8220;Bruce&#8221;, Rat, Beige, Capped w\/ blaze, Standard Ears\/Standard Coat, Male, DOB: 02\/10\/2018, Spayed\/Neutered?: No<\/del><\/p>\n<p><del>#2019224N, &#8220;Bucket&#8221;, Rat, Beige, Berkshire w\/ head spot, Standard Ears\/Standard Coat, Male, DOB: 02\/10\/2018, Spayed\/Neutered?: No<\/del><\/p>\n<p><del>#2019236N, &#8220;Beetle&#8221;, Rat, Beige, Capped, Standard Ears\/Standard Coat, Male, DOB: 10\/24\/2018, Spayed\/Neutered?: Yes 10\/14\/19<\/del><\/p>\n<p><strong>Bruce<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/i242.photobucket.com\/albums\/ff234\/MaineRatRescue\/2019%20Fosters\/Nicole%20H%20-%20Taunton%20MA\/the%20Bs\/IMG_5693_zpsevxakdhy.jpg\" width=\"801\" height=\"534\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Bucket<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i242.photobucket.com\/albums\/ff234\/MaineRatRescue\/2019%20Fosters\/Nicole%20H%20-%20Taunton%20MA\/the%20Bs\/IMG_5654_zpseibfmeqw.jpg\" width=\"801\" height=\"534\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Beetle<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i242.photobucket.com\/albums\/ff234\/MaineRatRescue\/2019%20Fosters\/Nicole%20H%20-%20Taunton%20MA\/the%20Bs\/IMG_5687_zpsyq245tjg.jpg\" width=\"801\" height=\"534\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These boys came to us on 5\/10\/19 because their owner&#8217;s landlord decided they were not welcome anymore.
