All Four Ratties in a group photo!

It is rare to get them to stop moving for so long. I took this while I was washing their cage during the day. I put them in a translucent pail, with a blue fleece under them, and they snuggled up and went to sleep. I thought it was such a great picture.

Rats make awesome pets! And yours are really cute, even the hairless one.

Love the picture! Thanks for sharing

Thank you. They are soft, intellegent, and very interactive. They love attention. I have a lot of respect for the humble rat.

I've never kept rats, though I quite like the pet ones, such cute little faces

They are adorable! People just don't realize what beautiful, smart little animals they are.

A few minutes ago, I was playing with Amarillo just like a kitten. I had a length of spanish moss and he was chasing it and batting at it like a kitten. I was afraid of what would happin if one got out since I also have 2 dogs, and there is a cat in the house. Well the other night, one got out (sumatra) and he just hid under the couch, waiting for me to wake up. When I am home the cage is open, and they come and go. Such home bodies.

My daughter's rat used to like to play tug 'o war with her.
