He basically is super duper friendly, towards everyone even if he doesn't know them.
Loves the vet and their tools
When you give him his water bottle he stands beside it and starts licking the air instead of the bottle....stuff like that.
Now even if he is disabled I really don't mind, I love him super much and he's the sweetest little guy I know....I just wonder if he's got something, and sometimes stuff like that can shorten their life expectancy

Dwarfs function like any other rat :rat: but all rats are known to have really poor vision and use a technique called motion parallax to perceive depth which is possibly a little off for him?
Does he have a Martin? The red eye gene it affects where and how they see (my gerbil ghost has some problems due to it)
His eyes are black
But he's a dwarf/rex rat.
Maybe he is overbred and that causes his issues

Dwarf rats very rarely have problems like other dwarf species I think his depth perception is off and he can't see well. I asked about the Martin's because it can have a worsened depth perception. But I think it's sight problems but don't take my word if he seems to show signs and you'd prefer a say so of if he's a bit special or not go for it.
