How/when Do (female) Pet Rats Mature?
I have a female rat, approximately five months old, and she’s very high-strung. We get along well; she rides on my shoulders, follows me around, and loves to play. But she won’t let me hold her. She’s too restless and always wants to be moving. She’s a good pet, but she can’t sit still. She’s still just a baby, could her restlessness and need to be running around and getting into everything just be a young rat phase? Is this normal?

How Do I Introduce Two Pairs Of Female Rats?
One pair is my two rats, Rachel and Staci. I’m considering adopting two more rats from a rat owner who can no longer take care of them.
As far as I know the other rats are in good shape but of course I’ll quarantine them for a week or so before introduction.
Once I know the other rats are healthy, how should I go about introducing the pairs? Is it the same as introducing a new rat to a group or are there any tricks/problems I should know about?
How Old Do Female Rats Have To Be To Get Sprayed?
I heard that spraying female rats can prevent tumors later in life. I have 2 rats that are 6 1/2 weeks. I also have 2 rats that are 3 month old rats (almost 4), and 3 rats that are 6+ month rats. I don’t know their age exactly, since they were bought at a pet store.
