Rats make great pets! When I worked with small animals, I used to sway the parents from hamsters/gerbils to the rats - especially for kids who wanted to be hands on (literally).

I was never bitten by a rat, but those darn hamsters caused me to bleed so many times (probably as I was bit once, and they sensed the fear, but also that whole nocturnal sleep pattern).

I have a scar from getting bit by a hamster!! ):

I had rats! I think I've had every critter under the sun aside from Gpigs. Rats are super fun and smart!

As a child, I hated sleeping over at my friends houses who had hamsters. Not that I'm scared of rodents, but because those little monsters would dig, chew, and run ALL NIGHT LONG. I have no idea how those people managed to sleep.


Probably as we, owned by feathered are becoming deaf with time and don't hear that our birds are loud. When someone else come to your apt/home and ask: How you can stand that noise?, you simply answer: What noise? Laughing

If I could have all pets I want, I would probably have all excluding snakes. Rats will be on list too.

Jeanne at the rescue has a hairless rat. It has one red eye and one black eye, so she named it Checkers, LOL
