I can understand having a newborn rat baby and raise it as your pet but the rat's that hang out in sewers and what have yous are disease infested vermin that should be avoided.
Well, DUH, you don't take a rat off the street and call it a pet. These are "fancy" rats that are sold at pet stores and breeders. I've had pet rats for 12 years and my house never feels complete without the furry pitter patter of little rattie feet.
Did anyone see that episode of Hoarders on A&E with the guy that "accidentally" let his rats take over his house? They took out over 2000 rats!!! CRAZY!
Even their name screams rat. Mr. and Mrs. Rattray have 27 rats as pets in their home. They belong to the Yorkshire Rat Club and they want the world to know that rats are very intelligent and interactive pets.
