If you only get one book, this one should be it. Nearly every "Oh my gosh, my rat just......what do I do?" is covered in detail. Even if you only ever go to the vet for care, this can help you understand the common issues you may be dealing with. Also, the first aid section will be invaluable for when your rat schedules their injury for the evening or weekend, knowing getting to the vet will be challenging. Clicking the picture will take you to Amazon where a digital version is available. You can also look here.
