Soft-furred rats are affectionate companions with silky coats and bright, inquisitive eyes. Their intelligence shines through in maze-solving and treat-seeking, making them perfect for owners who love interactive pets. These social creatures thrive on attention and bonding. **Care Facts**: House in a multi-level cage (minimum 2 cubic feet per rat) with bedding like paper pellets. Keep at 65-75°F, avoiding humidity extremes. Feed a mix of lab blocks, fresh veggies like carrots, and occasional grains. Provide chew toys, tunnels, and a solid wheel. Clean weekly and handle daily for socialization.
