    I wish I could find some hairless around here. No store carries them and I wouldn't even know who to talk to about finding a breeder. I want a hairless so bad.

    Quickest way to a hairless is through rexes!:D Or a razor.

    :8: Oh lord Justin! Could you imagine?! LOL

    Rats do usually only live for 2 years. Spaying and nuetering can help prevent cancer, which will lengthen their life span.

    Rats have been known to live for 4 or 5 years, although nowadays it's not very common.

    Yeah that's the sad thing about them :( My sister has a blue hooded hairless, beautiful blue skin! But she's a year old now and has been having a lot of tumors :confused: comming to the surface and rupturing. My little sis puts some meds on it and she's fine for the next month till it all happens again. It's weird. She's a fantastic rat though!
