My dd would like a rat, but I heard they smell really bad? What has your experience been? How big of a cage do you need?
I like (indoor) rodents..... I didn't mind the hamster or the guinea pig or the gerbils or the other hamsters or the other guinea pigs, but I'm not a fan of scaly tails :surrender:
Her room had finally stopped smelling like zoo, since Vito (gp) passed a few months ago... I thought we were done...... til she walked in with a pet box Sunday night :tap:
Sprinkles is on the small side and DD thought she might be able to escape from the cages we have, so DD bought an medium-ish sized aquarium for her.
NO, we're not getting Sprinkles a friend!
NO, I don't "bucket" the pets!
NO, Lucy will not get to :quotes
lay:quotes: with her. Though a friend of DS has a German shepherd that DID play with their rat :lol:
Yes, I have heard that they're smart ... Sprinkles likes to go for rides on DD shoulder and hide in the back under her hair .....
THINK ABOUT THAT for a while
...
the hamsters and gerbils always had to be moving moving moving and would have fallen/flown off :giggles:
sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Me too ............... They are very good pets. My brother had one growing up, she was BIG and her name was "Tiny". Some are more friendly than others, so take time at the pet store and check out the temperment (?) before choosing.
LOL ..... they had 2 rats at the pet store DD went to.... this one and another..... when the store guy picked up the other one to hand it to my daughter, they discovered about EIGHT BABIES underneath :faint:
He said, ummmmmmm, I don't think these should be out here... I better go tell someone
LOL... ya think?
luckily, this one was friendly
OH, and I'm not fond of the name... Sprinkles is WAY too close an association to cookies and baking and all :tap:

SHUDDER!!!!!
The only way I like rats is when they're SNAKE FOOD!
You could imagine my surprise when DH and I first started dating - I opened the freezer to grab a pizza and found a large stash of HUGE frozen rats for his 8' python :laugh:
OK, well at least she didn't bring home a snake hew:
and ewwww for the freezer story, red... that's way creepier than my LIVE rat... well, I think so anyway
