She\u2019s the most playful of the bunch and loves people. Fudge is always the first to try and escape the free roam boundaries.<\/p>\n<p>Donut and Cookie both love snuggling together in hammocks, sometimes joined by Fudge Sundae. Fudge prefers sleeping on the cage levels, sometimes in a hide, sometimes just flopped wherever. She sleeps with her eyes open sometimes, it worries me until I get close to the cage and she wakes right up. Fudge takes treats from me no problem, Cookie usually will after watching Fudge do it first, and Donut has only done it once. All three girls are HUGE chewers, they go through toys very fast.<\/p>\n<p>They are not yet litter box trained, and seem to poop anywhere but the box. All three are very curious and love \u201cpeople watching.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fudge Sundae was aggressive with my personal rat, so I\u2019d recommend adoption to a no rat home or by someone with experience introducing rats together. None have been people aggressive.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>UPDATE 12\/2\/19:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<em>Cookie<\/em> LOVES her wheel, she\u2019s typically spotted either running away on it, or relaxing in a hammock post-workout. She doesn\u2019t always love getting picked up, but still gives cuddles when she\u2019s in the mood. She enjoys bonding pouches and free roam time.<\/p>\n<p><em>Fudge Sundae<\/em> is a huge personality in a little body, she\u2019s not shy in the slightest. She\u2019s the first to test the boundaries, including those I set up for free roam time. She\u2019s most likely to be spotted hanging onto the cage bars and people watching. She\u2019ll hop right into my hands when I open up the cage. I think she\u2019s a great candidate for trick training and I\u2019m attempting to work on some basics with her.<\/p>\n<p><em>Donut<\/em> is still very shy. I\u2019ve made a lot of progress with her from when she first came to me and she\u2019ll let me pet her in exchange for a treat, but ultimately she prefers not to be touched. She does do well in bonding pouches. She\u2019s the heavyweight of the cage and can frequently be spotted stealing treats from Cookie and Fudge.<\/p>\n<p>They go through chew toys faster than any other rat I\u2019ve cared for. They\u2019ll all run to the cage doors in hopes of a treat when they hear you close by. All three girls love their hammocks and I think their best match will be someone with a love for cage decorating, they\u2019re always at their happiest when the cage layout has just been changed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cookie<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/i242.photobucket.com\/albums\/ff234\/MaineRatRescue\/2019%20Fosters\/Nicole%20G%20-%20Mendon%20MA\/Sweet%20Treats\/Cookie_zps8xycx3wp.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"801\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Fudge Sundae<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/i242.photobucket.com\/albums\/ff234\/MaineRatRescue\/2019%20Fosters\/Nicole%20G%20-%20Mendon%20MA\/Sweet%20Treats\/FudgeSundae_zpsz1vd6r3l.jpg\" width=\"451\" height=\"802\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Donut<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/i242.photobucket.com\/albums\/ff234\/MaineRatRescue\/2019%20Fosters\/Nicole%20G%20-%20Mendon%20MA\/Sweet%20Treats\/Donut_zpsnucc7cxi.jpg\" width=\"451\" height=\"564\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These girls came to us on 6\/15\/19 because their owner had too many rats!
