I got a new pet today, and he is just so sweet! When I was a teen I bred and raised rats, and sold them as "hand tamed" to petstores (this went over very well in the late 80's!)
Anyways I've been wanting another rat for ages, and finally just got one! I went to three stores, and none had hand raised rats, all of the rats they had were just tense... at the last one I decided to just check out the feeders (much cheaper) and there was one sweet boy in there who was not scared of me at all - he was just so curious, and just is so cute and cuddly! So I HAD to get him!
So please meet Thomas! He's just a little guy, he's got some growing to do! He lets me hold him already, so I'm sure he'll be totally tame to me soon!
