I'm sorry but I have to say something. Here at PETtalk we love all PETS and animals and this includes rats. People are going to get angry when you say rude and uncalled for things such as this. If you don't like rats then don't post on a thread saying this. Rats are VERY good pets and companions IMO and many people enjoy them including me. How would you like it if I said "EW goldens are soooooooooooo gross." Of course, I don't believe that but put yourself in out shoes. Gineau pigs are cute, sure. But that doesn't mean you should get one. Just because they are cute. Gineau pigs require alot of care and so do rats. For future reference, NO ONE should just get a pet because they are cute.
