Forums The Blackout Rat Palace
Lmao okay so it's more like a junkyard. But anyway this event makes me really happy because, as a rat owner, I'm always happy to see them in a good light. So hello let's party.
Rats are awesome! I don't understand why people think they're gross; they're really not much different from gerbils and other rodents.
I used to have one (I wasn't supposed to, she was a secret. Shhh! Lol). She was awesome.
They are awesome pets.
Edit: Also, have you ever heard of the Rat Temple in India?
@Theory: Exactly! I always try to tell people they're basically tiny dogs. I have three and they are absolute sweeties.
@Shamrock Shamus: I actually first got my pet rats in secret, too! I wasn't able to convince my mom to let them stay so they lived with my friend lol.
No I haven't! Is it a temple full of rats? o:

Actually a lot of rats don't live in sewers! They are strong swimmers and can hold their breath for a long time, though, so they can live in them. And to be honest, most wild animals will eat garbage if they can. That's not the animal's first choice, humans kinda forced them to need to do what they can by taking over the whole world and destroying their food sources.
Indeed it is.
I love all rodents ;0;
my dad hates rats and that makes me sad
just a gloomy ghost
@Boris: Raccoons eat garbage too, and they're pretty adorable.

neko says; Rats are really cute. I've always wanted one. Too bad my dogs would kill it. T ^ T
Whoa, I leave for two minutes and 80 people show up oh lord.
@Shamrock Shamus: That's such a relatable story. I would NOT be able to work at a pet place, I would want to take them all home, lol.
Oh man, I bet a temple full of rats is a good time. Walk in and be flooded with them, I would love it. :'>
@Lance: Most people, in my experience, hates them until they actually come in contact with them. I don't know if that's true for your dad, but it was true for my family. o:
@Eruca: They're really cute! I want to spread their cuteness far and wide. They deserve to be seen in the right light. :>
@Neko: Ah yeah, dogs are really... Interested in the ratties, haha. If you put them up high or in a room that the dogs can't go into, though, it could work out. ;3
@Panda: Thank you! I like yours, too. c:

Y'all make rats sound so cute, lol. I kind of go either way with them. I need to know they're clean before I start cooing at them lmao.
@Apollo Im Burning: Actually pet rats are really clean! They groom themselves just about as much as cats do. <3
Oh, that's good to know!
And afdgjagkdl I just looked up rats vs mice and the first thing to pop up is an exterminator. TToTT
@Apollo Im Burning: Oh noooo, that's just the society we live in, I guess. ; w; Although, wild rats and pet rats are very different, so I get not wanting wild rats around, haha.
