Since I posted photos of my chinchillas, I didn't want the rat boys to feel left out. :th_LOL:
I have two male rats who are nearing their 2nd birthday. So in other words, they are getting old in rat years. Cletus Rat is a bit of an idiot. He is a grey hooded color. He is very greedy about food & will grab first before checking to see if it is food or me! He has been that way since he was a little squeak of a thing & nothing will change his mind. I have to keep the food scoop in front of him when I reach into the cage to get their bowl. He is a pia, but I overlook it, except at times when I threaten to feed him to one of my snakes!:th_hehe:
My other rat boy is Mingus Rat and he is a sweetheart like rats are supposed to be. He is a Siamese colored rat, like my chinchilla that they call a Mosaic. My two most favorite rat boys have since gone over the rainbow bridge last year. They were both older than these two & just plain got old. They were both black hooded rats & their names were, Rastus Rat & Festus Rat. I still miss both of those boys. Rastus Rat had a white colored lightening bolt pattern coming down his nose & he would run to the cage door any time he saw me pass by. He loved being with his favorite human.
This is Cletus Rat.
