We've had Charlie for 2.5 years now, and I've taken him along to Kiya's kindy a couple of times... this was definitly the roughest treatment he's endured so far!

He only squeaked a couple of times while Josiah had him, and didn't try to bite me afterwards while I was checking him over... animals sure seem to know when young children don't know better!]]> Mon, 13 Feb 2006 19:29:01 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1526&PID=27982&title=poor-charlie#27982 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1526&PID=27964&title=poor-charlie#27964 Author: AlyAyde

LOL, poor Charlie! I'm sure Josiah was only trying to 'help'...]]> Mon, 13 Feb 2006 12:33:02 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1526&PID=27924&title=poor-charlie#27924 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1526&PID=27922&title=poor-charlie#27922 Author: daikini

I was changing the litter in Charlie's cage this morning. Josiah thought it was great - he could see Charlie running around under the top half of the cage on the floor, so both boy and rat were amused...

All was fine, until I had put the bits and pieces into the bottom half of the cage, and put Charlie back while I wiped out the top half... I hear banging and look up to see Josiah with a good grip on the skin on Charlie's back lifting the poor rat up and down! I stopped it, and Charlie went straight to his sleeping corner to recover.

Other than a couple of pulled out hairs, Charlie seems to be fine with no tenderness where he was "got", and is moving around without problems - but he didn't move out of the corner until the top half of the cage was on!

I guess the moral of the story is: if your 9mth old can reach, don't leave the pet rat within reach!]]> Mon, 13 Feb 2006 12:25:56 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1526&PID=27922&title=poor-charlie#27922
