Small animal bedding...free
#1
I have a bag of wood chips I got as bedding for my new pet rats. One of them is allergic to it so I had to switch to another kind. Stuff cost me $8 so I hate to just throw it away...anyone have a use for it? Free.

How do you know if a rat is allergic to something? Did he sneeze a lot or just puke all over the place?

If it's the same as gerbils they get really lethargic and stop eating. I have a gerbil and we can only use Aspen Shavings, no cedar wood.

Here's the little fella,

That leaves pretty much dogs and an occasional cat or bird.

A friend of mine had a pet rat growing up and they're actually fairly intelligent. If you could train a rat, would that be considered a pet?

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth

it's all mikey rules, pay no attention.

to be a pet, something has to know you, react to you, care about you.
to be cool, something has to be awesome... like a reef tank. i don't consider them pets, but they are cool.

i've had rodents before, and don't see the point.

Hum, my roomba knows me and it reacts to me, and it cleans my floors (that's caring) so it must be a PET! My old cat however knew me, sometimes reacted to me and 99.9% of the time didn't give a shit to me, Mikey rules!

My, 'rodent' on the other hands does all 3, on a regular basis.

My rats already know (sorta) their names and they are supposed to be easily trained. They are very social and they do keep you warm...
