Siamese rats enjoy living together in pairs. It is best to house two females together, as two males may become territorial. They are the smartest of all small pets, and can learn their names and simple tricks. They have tons of energy and are really fun to watch. Siamese rats enjoy running on wheels and in exercise balls. Calm, curious and fun-loving, siamese rats love to play and interact with their Pet Parents.

Things to remember

Lifting & handling
It's very important to handle your rat gently. To pick her up, stop her forward motion by lightly holding her tail, then slide your other hand under her body for support as you lift her. Avoid lifting her by her tail.

Senses
Siamese rats have limited vision, and rely on their keen senses of smell and hearing to perceive their world.

Special needs
Siamese rats have front teeth that never stop growing -- so they need lots of healthy things to chew on like treat sticks.

Nutrition
Choose a fortified diet appropriate for rats.

Habitat
Your siamese rat needs a well-ventilated wire home with a solid floor. It should be large enough for a food dish and water bottle, a hiding house and climbing toys. There should be plenty of room for all cage accessories, and for her to move around freely.
