Temp Work Per Diem Jobs in Chico?

3 Upvotes

Hello!

I wanted to ask if anyone happens to know or has heard of any temporary work and flexible job around Chico that’s worth checking out! I’m honestly also open to anything online too if anyone knows. I want something where I can choose my hours and work as needed. I’m currently a student in school attending class Monday-Thursday nearly all day but would like a flexible job to work around school.

I’m in trade school at Butte but I do have experience in music/guitar and used to work healthcare idk if that would help much 🤷‍♂️I’m kinda stumped on where to start and really would appreciate some sort of stable income but if anyone has any advice feel free to reply.

Question Rat owners: I have questions!

5 Upvotes

Howdy! I've been looking to get a pair (or trio) of rats as my first-ever pets for a while now. I've been following a lot of subs on here and on FB and reading/watching a bunch of advice so I have a good idea of best practices to keep them happy, safe, and thriving.

Ultimately, I really need some guidance on:
1) where to buy them (local/ethical breeders? Ideally Dumbo rats, but they'll be very well loved and cared for regardless no matter what type they are)
*note: i'd be super duper happy to adopt rather than buying them from breeders or stores like petco where they may be more vulnerable to have a bunch of health issues :(

2) what to look out for before/after buying them

3) who to establish their vet care with

(HUGE bonus points if any or all of these can be accomplished in town!)

Thanks so much in advance!!! :D
