About Pet Rat
When most people think of rats, they conjure up images of dirty plague-ridden hell-beasts lining sewers and cowering in dark alley-ways. Domesticated rats are a world away from their feral urban brethren. They are clean, friendly, playful and smart. You can teach them tricks, and love attention and company.
