I'm getting a RAT!!!

His name is Cosmo & hopefully I can get him in a weeks time! His rat buddy is beating the hell out of him, so he needs a new home. I'm just waiting for a cage & some rat supplies... means I need to clean up my pet room, so I have a place to put the cage where Axle can't trample it lol

I miss having Rats so much.. my old guys were sooo much fun.. Rattus was my baby & her daughtor Rat would play fight with me all the time, oh so much fun :) I know Cosmo is a good boy as hes coming from a friend, & hes never bitten which is nice as I haven't been bitten by a rat yet & when i was bitten by one of my mice I was rushed to the ER lol darn thing hit a nerve & was loosing movement & feeling in my hand.


EDIT:
Ok, I'm a sucker.. Now I have Cosmo & Grissom.. both Males.. I'll be picking them up on Sat I think.. Their mommy is very happy they are going to a good home, she was worried about her boys...

I'm gonna have to tear my closet apart to find the twine to hang the baskets... hmmm


I know rat urin can be stinky... I forget what to put into their water, was it juice?
