    It is a biv downside. From my experiencev they also start to have health issues halftime through and these can be pretty bad. Happy for people who don’t have issues with it but I couldn’t go through what I did again.

    Still miss my boys though, they were lovely. I wish I had a friend who has rats to experience the joys again a little.
