Meet my foster Rattie!

I just picked up a foster rattie today. His name is "Cheese" *shudders*.

Two boys lived with one of the boy's aunt and uncle. The friend of the nephew upped and left, leaving his rat behind. He was being housed on pine, in a 10 gallon tank, being fed absolute junk. Ugh. Anyways, Cheese is here with me now. I'm on the fence about adopting him...

Cheese is absolutely adorable! That little face of his is too cute.. then again, I have the biggest weak spot for dumbos.

Thanks for helping him out... I know for sure that he would be a foster failure in my house. =D

Is he a dumbo?!?!

I thought he might have been.. but I have a hard time telling rat types apart.

Hehe, if he is not a dumbo, then he sure fooled me! =D The last few pictures really look dumbo to me. Forgive me if I am mistaken, though!
See how his head looks broader than a typical rats'? That is what I always look for when I suspect one is a dumbo. It is an illusion that the ears put off.
