I felt that this was important and I know that some people here have rats and mice for pets.
"The founder of RatRight.org, Lile Elam, recently discovered that a mentally challenged man, whom we suspect to be an animal horder, had 100+ rats and 500-1000 mices living in his house. The mice are almost all caged, but not sexed by cages, and the rats were running free in his house. Thanks to heroic efforts we believe that nearly all the rats have been caught, and are in cages. All of the females are pregnant.
You can see pictures of the house and the rescue effort at http://www.jotenheim.com/ratrescue.html

If you are located *ANYWHERE* on the continent and are willing to adopt, please let us know, we are desperately seeking homes for rats and mice and are working on a train to transport them. If you can help transport anywhere in the us or lower canada, please let us know.

You can email me, but it may take me a little while to get back to you, it's been rather nutty around here.
