Hi! I'm currently collecting photos (or sketches) of pet rats, riding around on their Mommy's or Daddy's (or Friend's) shoulders. Do you have a picture like this? If you could post it here, I would really appreciate it! Post a lot...I'm looking for different angles, different "expressions" and postures, etc. The more, the better!

Thanks!

shy miss matilda backs up against my neck when she's on my shoulder.

for some reason this is the only one i've got on the new computer. hmm.

I need to get more pictures of me with shoulder rats - but it seems like the cuter the rats look, the worse I look! ^^; But here are the ones I do have

Me and my sweet boy Rokk:

My little girl Coconut:

I had lots more but a bunch of my pictures got deleted, so here's what I've got!

And not quite what you asked for, but I love Betty's expression.

Thanks so much, everyone! I'm saving the ones that will work for my project onto my computer, but I LOVE looking at everyone's cute ratties riding around! (Gus is a shoulder-rider, but I don't have a good picture of that.)

here is one of my first Gir. Hope you like it. He passed away in january so this is very near and dear to my heart.

 

[Holly]

Aw, look at him! "I'm so happy, because I'm on a shoulder, and I have a yogie!" He's precious! So sorry for your loss...I know that he will always live on in your heart, special little guy!

 

[Stephanie]

Thanks Holly. He was my heart rat the one that gets toyou and never lets go. I renamed a current rat Gir II because I love the character. He was such a good boy and was such a kisser every time he was out (which was pretty much always) he gave me kisses like crazy. I miss him alot and still have his hammock and blanket kept in a special memory box.

Well I already posted this one in "What do you look like?" But I figured since you asked, I'd post it here too
This is Toby. She's so calm on my shoulder. Topher is way too hyper to sit still on me.

[Holly]

Thanks, everyone, so much! Rats on shoulders seem to like long hair, eh?

 

[Forensic]

Yeah, seem to. :lol: They sleep on it or try and eat it.

 

[Stephanie]

OH MY JAck and Guinnes and perry are just soooo adorable!!! cuteness overload!!! I love the one where they are half asleep and the grooming picture! Bacardi looks like my jackson rat! LoL they are adorable little ones!

Crapola - your ratties look like they have just been put into heaven and LOVING the shoulder ride!! They look absolutely ecstatic! Such cute babies everyone has LOL

 

[Lunachick]

[Lunachick]

[Forensic]

Haha suure, suure! You should so name your next one Coors

I already have a beer, though. :lol:

I have a rum (Bacardi), an absinthe (Pernod), a coffee liqueor (Baileys), a beer (Guinness), a schnapps (Sour Apple Pucker), and a whiskey (Jack Daniels).

I may have to find a new theme. :lol:

 

[Lunachick]

Lol I'd suggest one but I don't think it'd be a good idea to say it here. My bro other used the theme when he had his own mischief of rats. It was just funny though, that's all.
Btw, your rats are a good looking bunch!
