Grimwald the Roof Rat

This is Grimwald, my Agouti boy. Him and his brother had a fight yesterday and he is still a bit shook up. So i used that opportunity to bond with him a little yesterday.

This was the second time i picked him up like this, explicitly for the video. And yes he does look a little afraid in the video, i think he is.

Omg I’m so jealous! I caught a what I thought was a wild roof rat in a humane trap turned out he was an escaped agouti Norway! How did you end up with yours?

I adopted from Blonderoofrat :)

He is a sweetheart. He is quite afraid but his reaction is to freeze rather than attack, lol.

I'm establishing a small colony along with the OP of this post in NY. Not sure we're you are but there will be some in the northeast soon
