Love the ratties!
I had a rat once, called him Radar - he liked to swing his tail in a circle any time you held him.

All of rats always swing their tail, why? Because they are trying to balance themselves, their tail is balance for them.. When, they walk on the very thin of something that they walk on it so their tail will move in right way to making them balance same like, "When a dog runs too fast, it will use it's tail to balance when he run a sharp curve so it won't fall" same with cheetah.

Same with Rat's tail is cooling them off if they get too hot, same with Elephant's ears cool them off.

LOL.. but thats ok.. cuz he is really good with kids and he love everyone...

Thanks!

yeppers, you got that right. All of animal will dare to do something to get people's attention so they will be happy to having their attention when they did something bad.

You decided too fast!

They don't have diseases, only common for rats' own diseases that other pets or we can't have from them. You only think of Sewer Rat, but honest with you they aren't dirty! They are VERY fussy to keeping themselves to be CLEAN, they are partly of cat! Enough with people obession with sewer rats, rats are VERY sweet and friendly than hamsters!

Oh yeah, thats right..only wild rats like sewer or alley rats are the
carrier of diseases..eeks!
Oh your little rats are sooo cute, really! my son had gerbils when he
was a kid and he really loved them but one time one of them accidentally
got out and man, we practically tore up the house looking for that little
devil and then found him behind the China cabinet, i shooed him out with a
yard stick at one end of the cabinet so he got out at the other end
thats when my ex hubby caught it but the gerbil bit his hand real hard that
he shook it off and the gerbil flew across the room and my son ran and caught
it..it was a funny sight! lol!
