I rescued two baby rats... they were fed sandwiches? | VLOG

[@Rekuzan]

"I wasn't expecting to get rats yesterday, but here we are!" [EVERY RAT OWNER EVER!]

[@Rekuzan]

I love my little chaos potatoes!

[@debb5470]

Yep. Or "no more rats"... then you double how many you have lol

[@Andy_1777]

That’s so true. Every time I go to my exotic vet he says “.. MORE?” Yes MORE I’ve only got 5 😭😭❤️

[@daeguille6914]

True! I went to the shelter to get new foster kittens. Walked out with the kittens and 2 new ratties!

[@itzelissatho4498]

Yep, rescued 40... got them rehomed (as had 20 - 40 of our own rescues, to then end up rescuing and paying a ton for over 200 rats, for the rescue to take (they agreed) the next day, we then went and rescued way more and throughout adopting them out, some of them had actually adopted some of the 200 from that rescue :D, tbh it's the same with all pets, u end up having more than expected

[@mousenation3867]

They’re gorgeous but I agree they do look a little small for their age, what a surprise can’t wait to see what they make of the big cage and all the other rats. Exciting stuff.

[@josephinetracy1485]

Rats, cockroaches, spiders, termites, mold

[@kinahthecat]

They are so cute. I am happy to hear they are warming up to you and that they are a pretty good weight despite their background.

[@esthersanchez2264]

It's great to see how U set up a cage and carefully handle unfamiliar rats. They appear to be excited, content, and pleased with their new environment and nutritional diet. I know they are very fortunate and lucky to be in your care. 😇

[@BeautifulVomit]

I just rescued 4 baby rats from a box someone left outside of a shop. I'm so excited to see your method of bonding with these two cuties. 😍 I need all the help i can get. 😂😅

[@_sijeuni_]

They are incredibly cute!! My last rescue was the same age when I got him (and he was severly injured because the shelter didn't care about introducing rats to each other before randomly putting them in a cage together) and he looked just as scared in the carrier. He became a super playful, sweet, curious and friendly rat though, intros went so well and he's doing great! I can't wait to see your new boys meet the others! ♥

[@ripplemoon249]

That’s so sweet, what’s he called?

[@NicholasTomlinPlus]

Beautiful!

[@Tinyburritosnail]

As a German Kinder is such a random & funny name 😂 it’s German for children 🙈 I never thought Kinder would suit a rat so well 😂🙏🏻 they are so cute and thank u for saving them 🤎

[@bowspritely]

Seeing that rat boggle after being so afraid at first was so sweet.

[@iizacrazychick01]

I did an impromptu rescue yesterday too! For a Robo hamster though, he had begun “fighting with his brother and the owner didn’t want two cages” classic dwarf hamster situation unfortunately

[@TearsOfEternity]

I love how you care so deeply for rats (and other animals). I'm glad you got these babies out of that situation. Also wanted to add that you talk to your rescues the same way I do. 🥰

[@octoberdawn1087]

I swear every rat we have was like "oh we just got another rat" and my husband's like "How?!?!!" We adopted a "problem rat" from the pound, he is missing a tail, but he is the best little boy ever and we named him Frank. Yesterday we adopted Mortimor, so now we need a brother for him. It always works out tho

[@taurine5561]

does he have ballence problems?

[@ratladyroch]

God bless you!

[@shannon9972]

My first group of rats were from p@h and they will always hold a special place in my heart. They ended up living until they were all three years old, had very little health issues and were the friendliest mischief I’ve had. I was very lucky to have had them ❤️

[@Ylime00120]

They are so wonderful!!! Best of luck with introductions. Will be so nice seeing all the boys together ☺️❤️

[@swewianna5938]

Your "pet voice" is the sweetest and very soothing 💜

[@televannah]

they are so precious!! i have one rat who i got from my breeder who is the runt of the litter, and he eats SO much and has a nutritious diet, but he just isn’t really growing as much as the other boys. he’s grown a bit but only like half as much as his brother. i guess he’s just a skinny legend

[@megan-ui3hq]

They are just adorable!!! Thank you for giving them a new lease of life

[@anneholterman9016]

Sort of the same thing happened with me once - one of my local shelters had a single female rat who got dumped- and I saw her ad and I adopted her literally the same day :)) she was such an sweetheart, but she is not with us anymore :(

[@Midnightpigeon666]

Kinder asleep at the end in your arms 😭 my poor heart strings 💖

[@lu3791]

Wow they are so trustful and not really shy

[@WeirdonikaMetalchick]

I adore adopting/rescuing rats 😭❤️ Watching them grow into fearless mischief makers 😭❤️ I've done it several times myself, and it's so rewarding. If I could I would save every ratto there is out there 😇

[@vixxenreigns]

Awwww....they don't even realize how loved and well-taken care of they are going to be yet. Here in Oregon we have a LOT of problems with backyard breeders, people rescuing feeders and dumping them because they can't handle them, pet stores selling supposed same sex pairs that are actually a male and now pregnant female. A lot of people dump them because they either can't handle them and they are biters and just all sorts of stuff. Pet stores here suck. They don't give proper information and don't even know how to sex them. So needless to say rescues and fosters are overrun with rats. Please please please people...do NOT get rats from pet stores, backyard breeders or feeder bins....you are just asking for trouble. Get your rats from reputable and ethical rescues and reputable and ethical breeders. Also, for the love of Gaia.....DO YOUR RESEARCH BEFORE GETTING ANY ANIMAL.

[@pokabrows]

When I rescued my sweet Freddie they were feeding him peanut butter sandwiches. He calmed way down once I got him on proper rat food. I think all the sugar was making him hyper. I'm impressed you weigh them without even trying to stick them in a bowl or something. They're so cute. I love hooded rats. I haven't had them in forever.

[@Captain_Bob]

It was so cute how Kinder sounded like he was purring when you were petting him at the end 🥺❤

[@cllairebearr]

I was quite concerned when I say the title… I am so glad they got to a good home, and that they will both live out better lives then they would have ❤️

[@Yes_im_Water]

I recently got a new baby rat as well, Wasn't expecting to get a baby rat that day but a little feeder girl showed up and I couldn't resist the squirmiest half bald(she has grown hair since no clue what's wrong with her) feeder rat baby. She's a bit shy with humans but extremely rat social which I wanted, she's gotten my least rat social rat interacting with her which makes me so happy that my older rat finally has a friend. My most playful rat finally has a playmate that can keep up to her speed. It's just nice to find a perfect fit for your group randomly in a lone feeder rat.

[@sistergabrielfassl8132]

Such inquisitive little buggers........................they are definitely cute.

[@palomajean3967]

They are the cutest! I'm so excited for you and them! ❤

[@makarovssuit]

Emi those rats will appreciate you so much and I am also so glad that you saved them

[@kassemellor6809]

Awww, what precious babies! I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been in the same situation… having to go “right now!” to pick up some adoptees. Best of luck with them, I’m sure they’ll be cuddle puddles in no time.

[@jamiedelgado1484]

I had a single pet rat 30 years ago and we loved him so much. I can't wait to be a rat mommy again and do everything I can to do things correctly. 🥰 Your new boys are super cute. Can't wait to watch them thrive with you.

[@nonono83]

i love that you know what you did wrong and want to fix it this time around! now that’s a good rat mum!

[@alien-bass]

Had a single rat also, that was 30 odd years ago. Kept him in a four foot tank, did all the things your not supposed to do today, sawdust, no free roam, but I loved him. The wife didn’t which was a shame. Have 4 lady rats now, big cage, doing it the right way now. Thanks to Emiology and other pro’s.

[@robinyourhouse2473]

I found a pretty good cage that’s almost double the size of my current one. the current one is on the smaller side but still suitable ! however upgrades are always great. i only have one worry, one of my boys has stayed VERY tiny. I’m gonna have to put mesh around the outside of it. zipties really are the ultimate rat product

[@alp4315]

They’re so cute! I absolutely love the names kinder and aero, they’re both very fitting

[@lynjago6022]

A few years ago, I had a rat, free roaming. This was long before I knew that I should keep more than one. But he escaped into the loft space, however I could always tempt him with a bit of toast! 🙂

[@shahddxxas_]

I'm so happy for them, they are so lucky to have you as their new owner ❤️

[@nynkekrans2925]

I love how sweet you are talking to them, it is amazing to see how much you already care!

[@laney3012]

I’m sooo excited to see them meet the other boys ! They’re adorable 🥰

[@melhawk6284]

They don't seem to be hand shy, which is GREAT! They will wind up what I call "idiot tame" (Which is a good thing) in short order!

[@rowdyrats7035]

I'm in love with them! 😍 They remind me of 2 of my younger ones, Aero looks like my Zorro (both black variegated with a head spot) and Kinder is almost exactly like my Romeo, just with standard ears. Can't wait to see more of them! They don't even know how lucky they got. ❤

[@rowdyrats7035]

Also, it was Kinder in your last video then! 😆 Sneaky sneak peek to us.

[@Ratman.Not.Batman]

Aww I love them. I've come so close to rescuing rats recently but I already have 9!! It's good to see some getting taken to a good home :)

[@stayweirdkids7243]

I miss my little boys so much! Such sweet little angels!

[@davidparker4649]

may god be good to you for what have done for these little ones

[@alien-bass]

Cracking show Gal, gonna watch it again.

[@nonono83]

I’m getting my first two baby boys in a month!! I’ve been waiting two years!! and one of them is blazed which i know you love, and the other is white with a black spot over one of his eyes!

[@cecerats]

most of my rats came from situations like this. i'm reminded of my first two male rats. the previous owner said they gave them up because of an allergy, but it was clear the owner went to the petstore with no prier knowledge about rats. the rats had mites and they were in a small cage (that was technically sold as a rat cage) hamster accessories. it would've been fine if they were tiny six week old rats, but at 12 weeks they were already growing out of it. they were fed bread just like these two boys

[@marzettik]

They’re a totally cute surprise, lol. Can’t wait to see more of them. Thanks for adopting.

[@Veeliscious]

That was really lovely to watch, as well as informative. What an amazing enriched life you give your rats

[@Sophieivy1_]

Awh they are so cute! I love there names. Funny enough I was making a rat hammock when I saw this video come out. That must mean you have 6 rats now! Wow. Anyway they are so freaking adorable can’t wait to see more of the

[@stellafreeman7964]

Thank you for Rescuing the beautiful Rats they now have the best home..they are super cute 😍 💗

[@emilybarratt48]

They are adorable! Your videos have helped me with owning my 3 bucks!

[@NicholasTomlinPlus]

Great work! I just bought 9 ratties who were destined for snake food.. 5 boys & 4 girls. Have had rats before this but have never seen ratty love like the girls have, one's bossing me around - bites my toes if I don't pick her up after her staring at me for minutes.. the other three are warming up with two zooming around the house & playing hide & seek with me, the last is quite shy but I'm sure she'll warm up soon enough. The boys are shy too but they're becoming more relaxed with me. All this in a week, so glad they're with me.

[@alexapuppylover8218]

Welcome home Aero and Kinder! Wishing you the best of luck with intros!🥰💞

[@thetoybonnielps]

WHAT OH MY GOSH THEY'RE SO SOCIAL😭💕 My 2 babies are sooo shy they're gonna be so much work

[@gennicejalcendor396]

They are both beautiful rats and they seem so friendly!.

[@JonahIronstone]

Thank you for sharing, and congratulations on your new tiny guys! They're so sweet.

[@sharkytampy]

IM SORRY BUT I CRIED WHEN I WATCHED THIS AS THEY ARE SO LOVELY AND YOU ARE JUST A ANGEL FROM HEAVEN TO GIVE THEM A NEW START AS THEY ARE SO LOVELYAND THANK YOU SO MUCH. PLEASE SHOW MORE VIDEOS ON HOW THEY ARE DOING

[@RedsAquarium]

Wish you luck with the babies

[@TheSqueakyFam]

I hate hate HATE seeing "my kids have got bored of them". The reason I deleted my TikTok is because a child drowned their hamster because they didn't want it anymore. I'm not here to start telling parents what's what but PLEASE teach your kids that animals are not toys to get bored of they are members of the family for the rest of their natural lives.

[@Emiology]

It’s 100% a reflection on the parent / parenting style unfortunately. If you teach your kids animals are disposable they’re going to grow up and let their kids do the same 😡

[@TheSqueakyFam]

@@Emiology it's so so sad and honestly, as a person who adores all animals, it stresses me out to my very core. Well done for rescuing these ratties and documenting how it's gone- hopefully it'll encourage more people to rescue ❤️

[@LaceyLanePlushies]

They are so gorgeous! I hope there doing well! ❤️

[@MiceAndRatEnrichment]

I'm so happy that they got a beautiful home with you! They will live a very happy life xx

[@Chealder]

Such a cute pair of boys!

[@Sakura-cn2vy]

Aww such darlings. They are so cute, so fragile they have a good appetite too lol Just like my mice when I got them aha

[@alexandriamulder4032]

[@GreatHornedRat]

[@kidstuff44555]

You're a good person, Em

[@leilaaa001]

So excited to watch, so happy they’ve found a great home with you💗

[@Kittypettle]

Wanna! They are both super cute- good job Emi!! Also I am rescuing a kitten called Toby in a few weeks and have been reaching all the videos of Hubble and his adoption 🤍

[@Emiology]

I love the name Toby 🥰

[@PatriciasEditsanything]

I look forward to your videos every week! They never seem to come quick enough, lol. I first saw the new babies on Instagram, so I was very excited to watch this video

[@nikitayanchevska4272]

I am not even kidding when I say that I had feelings that you would get some kind (hooded,varigated etc…) of blue rat! And you did! Congrats 🐀💙

[@Emiology]

I was hoping to! Was planning on going to a breeder for it as I have a lot of white rats at the moment 😂 but here they are!

[@zolfirthedragon]

I saw a gumtree advert for mice that were being fed peanut butter on toast.

[@ddphilp661]

You are very good person I don't know if you could you would rescue them all I wish I lived in the UK cuz I would have loved to adopt some of your rescues and I have a friend that would too

[@laurendobinson5930]

They have found the best home now ❤️

[@ginatrev9401]

So lovely you’ve took them home :) they’ll have the best life with you!

[@kimberlydewitt9533]

So cute reminds me of my moonlight Has a white spot on her forehead too &’& same coloring (the black && white one)

[@jack-a-lopium]

mmm, sandwiches... but only for me. I tend to find that my boys prefer cream crackers 😸

[@rattiecake542]

They're so cute!!!! Congrats on the new babies!

[@jojooffaraway2675]

I‘m late but they are so cute 😍 I’m so glad you can give them a great home! Also not going to lie as a German speaker having your rat named Kinder which means children in German is very funny to me 😄

[@addietrademark432]

They're so cute! They'll have such a lovely home with you. Also, Aero looks so much like my girl Truffle!

[@floofytailz]

They’re so cute! I can’t wait to see how they progress!

[@ems9874]

the grey one is so cute omg

[@Avocetexotics]

They are so precious! I'm so in love with these two! 🥰

[@k.c.3022]

Looking forward to your next video about bonding!!! I always direct my IG followers to your channel here and am constantly being asked for tips on bonding. They’re adorable!! 💕

[@pearljones698]

They're so sweet!

[@zee.chiaramonte09]

The black one looks so much like my youngest it’s insane, I’m glad you rescued them

[@izzie1277]

Omg I also got new rats today, what are the chances of that???

[@stephaniemarler9601]

I had to chuckle at the weights. My mischief is female, the largest gal I've ever had was less than 370 g! 😂

[@Khaatana]

Where did you get your over the shoulder bag from around the 15:14 mark? Looks fab for carrying ratties round

[@LethalSaliva]

I love blue hooded rats!

[@noellekelly725]

I love the mushrooms and cage behind you ! 🥰🥰🍄❤️

[@aramania7889]

They are so adorable!

[@Neodymium-ioi]

They are very cute

[@bellarodriguez8493]

I’m happy your adopted them!

[@bellarodriguez8493]

You*

[@katelennon6869]

Lovely video

[@tmntleo]

Awwah they look exactly like the two rats I had years ago that I adopted from Pets at Home. They were sisters and were absolute sweethearts, one was deformed at birth so she was missing one of her front legs and had a stump instead but it didn't stop them from being just darlings. I wish I had time and money for rats again, I miss their little faces. But like you mentioned at the beginning of the vid, money crisis atm.

[@sleepingArisu]

I am in love with Aero

[@HoneyyyAa]

Your the reason I got rats thank you 😊

[@Garden..of..eden7]

so cute!!! I wish I could rescue some more ratties but I have my hands full atm lol 🤍

[@lustonious6069]

aww they’re are insanely cute

[@froyumforhouse878]

They are so cute! I wish you the best of luck in introductions!

[@daqtaghhasfibers]

They are way too cute. I am a sucker for rescue rats too and try to rescue rather than buying from a bad breeder even though they most of the time come from just such breeders. I do buy from good breeders as well to get a good balance with rats that have not been through a terrible situation. Some of the most cuddliest and best tempered of mine have actually come from breeders that the rats have been removed from and the breeder have been shut down and fined.

[@Emiology]

I do think with social animals it can be handy to have well bred / well handled animals to show others that are rescues that it’s okay and how to behave! I may get my next rats from breeders again depending on the behaviours of these when they’re introduced

[@Seraitsukara]

One small tip for weighing them; use a bowl or tupperware container to keep them on the scale! You can tare out the weight of the container for an accurate reading. A little bit of food on your finger will convince them to stay still long enough for reading too!

[@Emiology]

I’ve done that with my other rats in the past, just couldn’t be bothered to get one this time. They’re too nervous to take any food outside of their enclosure right now
