Our neice bought three rats (as animals) from Petsmart and had them for 2 weeks once they exhibited numerous symptoms (home mutilization of epidermis and eyes, attention release, and respiratory signs). They certainly were her animals therefore, we approached a Vet and created a scheduled appointment. The rats were handled for probable mite invasion and provided antibiotics (Baytril). The rats never reponded towards the antibiotics plus they never had termites to start with. Ultimately they'd to be euthanized. Autopsies were done also it confirmed that two had the Sendai Disease plus one had Sialodacryoadenitis, that are extremely infectious illnesses. Petsmart purchases from breeders who mustn't immunize thier cities and also the infant rats seem balanced for awhile before dormant disease shows its hideous head and gradually eliminates them. Petsmart may purchase in the cheapest bidder and also the health of the rats isn't regarded since many clients utilize them as feeders for snakes. Our neice was devastated and we spendt $950 looking to get her pet rats nicely. These rats did not remain an opportunity being which were disease plagued and possibly inbred. To people who purchase feeders " Be Cautious " since Ill Rats =Sick Snakes!!!
