He and his younger brother were yet another Kijiji ad…Rescue has to rehome all her rats. Found out that the rescue was a younger girl who kept a bunch of cages in her bedroom. Her mom said “enough, get rid of them”. Most went to a herp store, but Otto and Wilbur I got in the nick of time. Originally Smoky, Wilbur was 4 months older than Blackie (now Otto). They had the same mom who escaped twice and into the girl’s male cage
Otto hadn’t been handled at all in his 18 months of life and was petrified with fear. Wilbur got over his fears pretty fast and became a sweet sweet soft boy :)
And the tongue comes out for the first of many times…
Then I introduced them to my sweet passive Shadow, who had never had really good friends, she was shunned by other groups…made me so sad. Wilbur and Otto changed all that for her :D
Otto and Wilbur were very happy
Even with the addition of the little spitfire Carina Snake Biter then more girly additions and the new colony was the CSB (named after Carina since she was an is a driving force
But a couple of months ago, Wilbur’s HED was getting worse, and his love for his lab blocks would actually get him to start fights in the cage if anyone went near his lab blocks…so I moved him in with my resident nursemaid Valora (she was 37 months old at at the time!) At first things were a bit rocky since Wilbur was a bit manic at times and she’s a very laid back girl…but she grew to like then love her little wobbly man.
Sweet licky man, everyone fell instantly in love with him…he will be missed by many.
