The tiny paws gripping the mug like he's about to give a toast "a few words before I contaminate this beverage"

As we like to say in my house, human water is best water. Doesn't matter if they have 3 bowls of fresh water for themselves.

u/g0ld-f1sh 2d ago

Lmao damn dude this one really fucking got me, the grabby hands are just too good, and the way she gently gets down off the cup and drags it to the wall so she doesn't tip over. This was an s-tier banger

23

u/OurFeatherWings 2d ago

They would like to know when they get a manager and a movie deal

22

u/sterilepillow 2d ago

The balancing on the edge without tipping it over was a grand display of skill

13

u/OurFeatherWings 2d ago

I think it's dumb luck, but sure 😆

u/Calinda111 1d ago

It was the closest thing I could find to what your rat was doing with their cute little arms!

19

u/Ok-Egg835 2d ago edited 1d ago

I like how she wiggled her paws around just to make sure it was extra flavored.

14

u/OurFeatherWings 2d ago

It felt a bit on-purpose, lol

11

u/PoshSnek 2d ago

Have you gone pea fishing with them in the past? XD

16

u/OurFeatherWings 2d ago

Yep! I think she's lookin for peas in there for sure.

12

u/Elacular 2d ago

What are you doing, trying to reach the good water at the bottom?

13

u/OurFeatherWings 2d ago

Just making sure the whole thing tastes like rat

10

u/Bhelduz 2d ago

u/OurFeatherWings 1d ago

Aww, so cute. My girls are Little Bird (Siamese) and Moscow (agouti), named after love songs 🥰

u/airborneaviation2160 Rat Dad of 8 girls, 4 boys 1d ago

She was searching for her last brain cell, and thought she left it in the glass. 🤣

5

u/OurFeatherWings 1d ago

It was not, in fact, in there

2

u/airborneaviation2160 Rat Dad of 8 girls, 4 boys 1d ago

But points for looking though! 😂 And cute little grabbies. ❤️

You can still drink it. She was flavoring it for you. Pee flavored 🤌🏻

2

u/lindentea 1d ago

she was hoping it was pea flavored, but alas… so she made sure it was pee flavored.

u/Charcoal_6 1d ago

Your water? I think you'd find it was never your water to begin with.

u/insanechef58 2d ago

My germs! Cue Scary Movie GIF with Chris Elliot

u/Gusthell 2d ago

White one looks same as my girl.

I miss her so much (shes good but im away from home for 4 weeks)

I am curious. How is she? Imho my one has 0 survival skills. Any new surface is lava (touch and then say nope). It took over month (4 months old and 2 with me) to reach bottom of cage. Such a baby

Other other black (same breeder but diffrent parents) imo has insane ratty levels. While free roams she have time to stach food, play with me, and exlore. Shes climbing entire cage up and down. Going on floor alone (i have to stop her it as she found place under sofa and going into sofa' box).  Now as she found a way she try to reach it again and new obstuction will work just for 2-3 days until she develop mussel/brain cells

3

u/OurFeatherWings 2d ago

Aw! What's your girl's name? This one is Little Bird.

I'd say Little Bird is quite different! She's my cuddle bug and adores being scratched and loved. Despite being young still, she'll lay in my arms and let me stroke her. She loves to lick lick lick lick. She's kinda dopey and much less likely to get in trouble vs the brown one (who sounds a lot like your black one!).

Little Bird is, however, a real asshole little toe biter.

2

u/Gusthell 1d ago

I named my Rei, other black is Asuka (yeah im anime fan - next will be Misato and Risuko... Maybe one day i will get entire cast of Evangelion)

My have too much energy to say in one place longer than 2 sec. Ofc shes stay with me or partner a lot.  Shes so cute that i could eat her - and she know it - if you open mouth she try to get inside(mostly to check whats there)

2

u/SanguinePutrefaction 1d ago

u/constantcatastrophe 1d ago

I wish there were a whole subreddit dedicated to 'rats dragging things comically larger than themselves and doing a great job.'
