Published: April 19, 2006 | 4026th good news item since 2003

Miracle was rescued from a snake tank where he managed to elude the snake for four months. He is either a smart rat or very fast one! Now he is looking for a loving forever home – no snakes please!

Pet rats can make wonderful pets. Rats are clean, intelligent, affectionate animals which bond to their human companions in much the same way that dogs do. Rats can be taught to come by name and learn a variety of tricks.

Unlike many other rodents, however, rats are a fairly high maintenance pet. They need at least an hour’s playtime outside their cage every day. Because they are much more intelligent than many other small animals, rats can suffer if not given enough attention, free-range time, and environmental stimulation.
