Rocky may be older than we always thought he was. we've had him pegged at 3 1/2. in the last month or so he's begun to look a bit elderly bless him. does anyone have any tips on making an old man more comfortable
 
Bless Rocky, they do slow down as they get older we found. We made sure Putt didn't have to climb over things in the cage to get anywhere as she got older.
 
Make sure there are places for him to cuddle up nice, cosy and warm and that everything is easily accessible. Rosie is nearly 7 and just gets on with it, she loves sleeping on a heat pad and the only thing she can't really do is stand up against the side to beg for food. As we have a ramp in the cage that she can't quite manage without a bit of help we have to swap her into the other part of the cage for a change of scenery. Other than that she is very happy :)
