The author's voice sounds kind and caring but also informative and I must say, I use this book all the time. It has information on almost everything to do with rats. I bought this book after getting my three ratties, and have found it very helpful. It's a must-have for all rat owners. It has what to feed them, what not to feed them, games to play with them, what to do on a hot day, how to find a good vet ect ect. Highly recommended.
I truly enjoyed this book and it has all the information one needs to take care of a rat.
This is the best and most accurate rattie care guide I've read. Ms Ducommun is know as the Rat Lady and has been one of the best rat health experts for many many years.I have 5 rats myself and even though I'm experienced in their care I found this book interesting to read. I think every rat enthusiast should have this on their book shelf :-)
It put my mind at ease on several issues, taught me quite a bit and it is great to know that I have it as a reference if anything should ever happen to our precious Ratatouille. Our rat seemed healthy and happy, but I always worried that we might be missing something.I received this book for Christmas, and by the end of Christmas morning I had read 2/3 of it. Neither of us really knew much about rats, but we muddled through researching here and there on the internet and asking questions at the pet shop, etc. We landed ourselves a pet rat a little over a year ago. Like another reviewer already said, it might not go into quite enough detail for people who already know a lot about rats, but for your everyday rat owner, I think it is more than sufficient.Oh, and, after reading in this book that you should never keep a solitary rat, unless you can spend several hours a day with it (we manage a couple of hours a day), we are off to get a house mate for her, in the new year. It is such an interesting and informative read. Of course, now we have this book, we know how to successfully introduce the new rat in the correct and proper way ;o)
I have a pet rat, and this book was helpful. It was also very helpful on food, cages, and health. I especially liked the chapters telling about games you can play with your rat and showing them. I would recommend it to people of all ages.
