Question
well first of all i use to have a fancy rat, and he loved to play in the bathtub with a little bit of water to swim in. I didn't ask anyone if that was another good way for him to have fun and exercise, but i did it anyways. so my question is, I have a dumbo rat now and i was wondering if i dont let her get water in her ears is it ok to let her play in the bathtub with a little bit of water, if i dry her off when she is done?
