    Default Introducing the newest member of our family...

    JonnyAnne!

    She is a young rat that I just got today! I adore her and I'm really excited to get to know her and integrate her into the family :)

    I will be getting another female soon and then we will have JonnyAnne (and) June hehe

    I know right! Her whiskers are so wide. She is the sweetest little thing. Currently she is hanging out in my pocket :) I can't wait to get her a friend and watch them be adorable together.

    Drew is having a hard time getting it through his head that rats are pets. He adamantly states that they are NOT pets, they are nuisances. WHATEVER! LOL. He will come around, i know it :)

    How cute! I love them. Don't really want to own one again but think they're adorable. Congrats on the new addition!

    I think once he see's how intelligent and how loving they really are, he'll come round really quickly. She is so cute, I love the whiskers too!

    Well, now-- she's as cute as a button! And nothing like the rats I see here in New York City. I mean, she looks like a cute little Disney rat compared to what you encounter here. Especially in the subways.... Ugh.

    Eee.. she is so cute! Love her little head spot :)

    I just recently got 2 rattie boys myself, after taking a break for over a year. I missed having them in my life!
