She's over 18 months old so hopefully she's passed her ratty menopause. Hopefully she'll feel sorry for him when he comes back from the vet all stitched up and ball-less and will let him within 3 feet of her without shouting at him.

I would so love ratbabies. My boyfriend would kill me though. This exact same thing happened with the gerbils, I bought a lone one for him (which I told the pet shop woman I thought it was a girl, but she said it wasn't) so I bought a male friend for it in another pet store, but then the original 'male' gerbil miraculously had babies. Fortunately I love all tiny things so they're now living in a vivarium that's been divided with a glass screen.
