lol @ Badger.......

don`t mind cute little hamsters but please no pics of rats, i have a phobia AAAARRRRGGGGGHH.. it`s the long tails, am shuddering at the thought

Me and my younger 3 kids used to keep guinea pigs, which aren't technically rodents. At one point we had 34 of the little buggers, they just kept appearing overnight. My kids had a hell of a job offloading them onto other kids at school, until I had the great idea of the kids having a summer party with friends over, and then every little girl they knew just had to have one once they'd sat in the run playing with them. But, as I explained, they are social animals and need company, so you'd better take two.

I used to have an albino rat with red eyes I called Rambo. He used to go out to town with me, sitting quite happily on my shoulder. Rats make great pets. They are intelligent, clean, and far less likely to bite than mice, hamsters or gerbils. Rambo never bit anyone. He lived for nearly 5 years, which is a long time for a rodent.

I cried buckets when he died

I have two pet rats a brown ish coloured one called Florence and a white one with pink eyes called Ruby, rats are the best rodent pets to have, cos they dont bite like hamsters do.

used to have a pet rat called Moxy. Had to be put to sleep a couple of years back tho. On the same day my bike got totalled when a car pulled out in front of me.

Sad day.

If you need rid of any unwanted rodents then I am sure Murphy can help
