Liz and Matt talk about good and bad pet rat accessories, a local Facebook hero, Castlevania, and more.

Ratty Topics – We talk about our new foster rats and why bonding pouches for pet rats are great (check out Liz’s Etsy shop). Also, we discuss sprains in rats and bumblefoot (and what causes sprained feet – don’t put Dollar Store plastic Halloween baskets in your cage!).

Local Animal News – We recently discovered local Facebook hero Otis T. Squeaks (a stuffed hippo) and we’re loving his photo posts. Also, did you know that there’s a hotel which offers pet goldfish for your stay?
