#20250085, “Dinosaur”, Rat, Grey and White, , Dumbo Ears\/Standard Coat, Male, DOB: 09\/09\/2023, Spayed\/Neutered?: Yes<\/del><\/p>\n

Both are seniors<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>

UPDATE 4\/15\/25:<\/strong><\/p>\n

This duo has come a long way in the last couple weeks. Once shy and fearful they get a bit more social every day. They enjoy exploring, climbing, digging and foraging.<\/p>\n

Beetle is a bit more adventurous and human oriented. He also explores a bit with his mouth. This should not be confused with trying to bite; it doesn\u2019t hurt and he doesn\u2019t intend it to hurt.<\/p>\n

Dinosaur takes a bit longer to warm up, but he thoroughly enjoys play time outside the cage. So much so that he is reluctant to go back to the cage when plat time is over.<\/p>\n

Both boys are currently being moved in and out of the cage inside their igloo. Their new human will need to be calm and patient to earn the trust of these charming gentleman.<\/p>\n<\/div>
