My grandma is always smoking in her house and I'm getting a rat soon. Either I risk the rat being in the house with the smoke tomorrow or I will have to get it the next day. But the problem is that I only live with my mum part time and I don't want the rat to be lonely or without fresh food and water when I'm not there. And it's not just weekends. My mum sometimes has to work late in the week and I have to go to grandmas.
It's her house, so I don't want to tell her what to do. I just don't know what to do!
All advice is welcome, except for sarcastic or jokey ones

✔ 最佳答案
You will not be able to get your grandmother to stop smoking in her own house. Your best bet is to put the rat enclosure by an open window.EDIT TO ADD; I doubt enough smoke gets to the rat inside an enclosure to matter sweetie. I grew up in a house where all the adults smoked and all of our pets from mice to Great Danes lived remarkably long lives. I had 2 gerbils that lived 6 years which I understand is a great age for a gerbil.

You can't. Live with it or don't go over there.

You can't.
Either accept that the rat will inhale smoke. Find a smoke-free place for the cage, such as the garage, or realize you can't have a rat in your circumstances.

I don't worry about the rat as much as I worry about you inhaling that smoke. Rats are pretty tough. They live in garbage dumps.
I advocate hamsters over rats. Rats have a distinctive odor that I dislike.
Hamsters are fun watching stuff their cheek pouches with food and they will fit in a shirt pocket. They just curl up and go to sleep, feeling safe and warm.
