I LOVE MY RATTYS!!! I see so many people not even giving them the time a day, and just saying how nasty they are and stuff. They are such awesome pets!!! I have 4 of my own now, and I never thought I could love something so small, so much.

hey everyone i would just like to say that i am a rat lover!!! ive had about 10 over the years and i swear they make wonderful pets.they arent filthy as everone thinks,they are actually very clean,and very smart,they can learn tricks!!after my last rat died,well i actually had to euthenize him,because he was suffering with a tumor,and he was having trouble breathing,it was devastating just like losing a dog or cat,but as the vet said,hell be waiting for me at the end of the rainbow bridge!!give rats a chance,and please they dont have to be snake food

Everyone has their love for their pets. Yours are rats, as mine is for cats, dogs, horses, goats, etc.

It is absolutely pathetic to view a vet as someone who purposely tries to harm pets. I am not a Saint, far from it. However, everyone makes a mistake, especially interns. For heavens sakes, if he thinks he does not make mistakes, or everyone is pe...

Oh he is still around breeding and selling dogs. Hopefully myself and some others involved can at least get an investigation started. He can't hide everything. The people who investigate are experts and know what to look for. I can only hope.
