You can get a food rat at the snake store for five bucks. And yard sales frequently have used cages for pennies on the dollar, castoffs from tragedies of pet rats who's short life spans have expired. "I want more LIFE, f***er."
You know what? I LOVE rats. They're miles more companionable than cats or dogs. They love you, and they'll show it all the time.
The only thing is, they "get into things" so you have to put the poor little fuckers in tiny cages, which I hate to do. They're very, very clever, MUCH cleverer than a cat or even a dog, but it's too bad that they're so tiny, because if you let them out of their cage,they like to wander around and go behind things, and they don't come when you call them.
That notwithstanding, they're the nicest little pets on the planet, are loyal and immensely friendly, but I'm afraid my wife would take out the shotgun if I got one.
Hmm. Maybe I'll do it anyway and see what happens. No sane person can resist an affectionate rat.
I like snakes too, but cuddling up to them is not an option.
