• Melanie J. Posted : 3/9/2006 9:43:09 PM I would see why they are feared in new york city.. rats there are HUGE. The rats I keep as pets are much smaller, pretty colors. I LOVE rats. They are great, like small dogs. I have always been interested in them.     Harry, one of my hairless boys.   How could you be scared of that face?       Sorry for so many photos!!       0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• christine Posted : 3/9/2006 10:41:09 PM Rats YUK! For me,they are the worst creatures on the planet,i'm assuming there's pictures of them above,i cant look! I would move out of my house if there were mice,i would never return if there were rats,i cant look at them on the TV or pictures,lettalone in real life! I had a wonderful chance to work in a great pet shop not far from where i live,but they kept rats and mice there,so i couldnt,i just couldnt! IMHO there's enough cool pets out there to own,why keep vermin??[:'(] Oh and welcome punky girl [] Sorry about the rant,it just happens you keep the one creature that makes my skin crawl [sm=uhoh.gif] 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Melanie J. Posted : 3/10/2006 1:53:20 AM Thank you! I did get the PM. alfncat: Two of my rats have no fur, and two have some fur, and then patches with no fur!   Aww,, thats sad to hear, I LOVE rats. They are great once given the chance. My mom hated rats, and never wanted me to have them.. She loves them now! They are like little dogs.. the only problem I have is the tail.. but it doesn't bother me anymore! 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• jeano Posted : 3/10/2006 5:00:16 AM Wow, I'm stunned! Everyone looks pretty healthy and happy! Are your animals all spayed and neutered? Well, not the rats and mice and hamsters, and definitely not the turtle! LOL But the dogs and cats? 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Debbie R Posted : 3/10/2006 7:05:41 AM Wow, welcome Punkygirl, where do your energy from. Are you breeding them? I have always been squeamish of rats and mice, I am getting better about looking at them on tv and in pictures, I still don't know how I'll do in person yet, I don't know where my fear comes from and I know it isn't rational so I am really working on it. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
