How old can rats live and how social they are? Just wodering. On average you're looking at 2-3/3.5 years. Most pet rats end up falling in that range. The raaare exceptions can make it to 4 or even 5. Rats with poor genetics (not their fault : ( usually these ones are from pet shop stock or were intended for snake food, so they weren't bred with health and good temperament in mind) can start showing medical problems at 1 year or even 6 months. you can super-roughly think of it like 1 year for a rat is 30 years in human years, after their puberty and reaching social maturity levels out they are highly social creatures so must be kept in pairs or groups, cuz in the wild they live in big family groups. usually that's same-sex pairs/groups for obvious reasons but they can be neutered/spayed so mixed-sex is possible. usually people end up with siblings from a litter, but they don't have to be related to live together- 'stranger' rats can sometimes be put together successfully if proper introductions are done. its actually pretty mean to keep a single rat tbh exceptions are the last remaining rat from a pair or group (that's just nature) or the odd rat who has aggression issues with other rats due to a personality quirk or bad breeding etc. they make great pets They DO make great pets, I had a pair of rats once.

This is my buddy, Duncan. She's a 25 year old yellow-collared macaw. I adopted her 3 years ago. Her nickname is Duck, because she likes to quack. She's the best. The cuties below are my family's pets. We rescue a lot of animals...

My sister was cat sitting for a friend of hers. She has 3 other cats that were bullying him. And since our old man was put down, she asked if he could come up to the rest of the house. So now we have another fat cat living with us in the house. Meet Borris:

I'll have to put pictures up another day but last year we decided to trap a feral cat that had been living in our barn for a year. He was beginning to look unhealthy and we were attached to him and wanted to help him. We set out traps and caught 2 cats we had never seen before. We neutered and released the first one (named him Simon and we still see him in our barn a lot) but from that time on, we haven't been able to make ourselves release anymore. We kept Feisty (a little calico we'd never seen before) and BC (for Barn Cat but now he's a house cat) and they live in the house with us.
A few months later I saw a female cat in our barn and she has 4 kittens. When the kittens were 6 weeks old, I trapped them all and they live in our house too. We fail at releasing feral cats. This year we caught 1 more cat (the father of at least one of the kittens)and all 8 formerly feral cats get along great together and are extremely friendly to us.
Three years ago, over a years time, we caught and released over 100 pack rats...they had taken over our barn. We released them further into the 50,000 acre ranch we live on. Boy, were they stinking up the barn because of the middens they built but I really did enjoy watching them. Those pack rats would have hammers, pliers, and even bottles of rat repellent in their nests. They would pretty much take anything they could find into their nests, including about 50 lbs of loose emu food, that they had taken out my my emu's feeding dish. Very smart and interesting critters. Simon, our barn cat, seems to have been keeping rats away now.

About six months ago I got myself a kitten, and she's been such an adorable and sweetest kittycat I can imagine. She really likes to talk when she wants something. Lately I've been taking her outside and she seems to love it. Although the other day she was stung by a bumble bee and her paw swell quite a bit. Live and learn, little kitty, live and learn.

*slams fist on table* Where has this thread been all my life? I have to get pics up another time if anyone's interested, but my pets are my babies. I have five cats (two of them are kittens), a pony, two real dragons, four danger noodles, and five cresties. And about a week ago I found two baby cresties that apparently hatched without me knowing. They are adorable as heck, and one of them was super lucky I actually got up to see what the squeaking was all about - one of the adults was about to eat it and already had it in its mouth. I'm a proud reptile mom. Lots of insects in my house, too. My dinosaurs gotta eat something.

A year ago, we trapped a mom cat and her 4 babies, got them spayed and neutered (once the babies were old enough) and they are part of our household for the rest of their life. Now they are tame as any cat we've ever had although it took mom longer to tame since she was an adult feral cat. During this last year we did lose three of our 17 and 18 year old cats. Also, I'm in the process of building a turtle home for a rescue box turtle that I'm adopting. This is my favorite thread
