She was a really nice rat, thank you. She did live a quite long life for a pet store rat and had a very productive and happy life so, though we do miss the old granny rat, we're glad she's no longer old and infirm.

Our rats all love messing with empty toilet paper tubes or tubes from paper towels and one of the more popular "toys" is just thin strips of old phone book pages. They just love that stuff...they'll spend hours hauling it around, building nests, stealing it from each other. Great busy work for them and heck it uses up the old phone books! It does get nasty when they pee on it so I wouldn't use it as real bedding, just a handful tossed in occasionally.
