this is stinker. she is my pet rat. she is a good girl but sometimes mistakes my singers for food. just a tip for all you new rat owners, never feed treats through the bars becuase when you stick your fingers in they think "FOOD !" and nip :) shes a sweet heart other wize. likes to wresle alot,likes crackers and vegies. fruit is okay. they taste yummy frozen to her on those hot days.


and this is my rainbow bridge baby willow. she died becausea she broke her paw wresling with stinker and died :( stinker didnt mean it though. she was my good girl and i remember she was the first rat i saw and i said ma, i want this one but she took me looking and i came back a month later and she was still there So i got her :) i named her after a tree that was planted the day i was born. it was a willow tree. she died after about 2 years but she had a good life filled with popcorn :) haha. well thats my pets storys. plus i have my dogs and my turtle and cat , but im just sticking with those two :)

my pets have broughten so much joy into my life. and they teach you alot of life skills. i recomend rats 100% for any animal lover :)

Hi everyone!
I have a little brown & white mouse.That sad to say was suppose to be snake food! Well snakes have to eat to! I wasn't thrilled to do it.But anyway his name is xavier. We have had him about 9 months now. He bit the snake and the snake wouldn't eat him after that. So now he is a pet. He is very sweet and loves to run around free. He won't even try to run off. I couldn't believe it.I have pics of him on my page.
