Hi, just thought I'd introduce myself =).
I'm seventeen and currently reside in a small town in Newfoundland Canada. I've been researching rat care for a little over four months now and I might have the chance to get 4 handsome boys =). I mostly joined this forum to talk to other rat enthusiasts. Most of the people I mention rats to at school say either: get gerbils instead or get mice instead. :roll:
Silly people.
One girl who told me to get gerbils instead had gerbils at one point.. AND long story short one ate the other one 8O . I've also heard mice horror stories about it too.
Anyway, I think my initial fascination with rats came from Harry Potter when I was younger
.
I never thought too much on it because I didn't realize how popular of a pet they were until a few months ago when a friend and I had been discussing his want for rats.
I'm really hoping to find a lot of help and support in my journey to acquire rats, as well as help when I finally get some
.
Some people have already been helpful to me =). Thanks to everyone so far and everyone who may help me in the future.
p.s if I'm rambling it's because it's one thirty am my time
