How to have a pet rat
How I did it: It took me 6 months to make the big move, to adopt the cutest furry friend I ever had. I've been reading a lot of book about them, their health and psychology. I bought the cage and accessories months before owning the pet. Then, I've visited a lot of pet shop to find the right one. I found him on the new year eve. He's a blue hooded dumbo male rat. His name's Lucius as the Titus' nephew in the Shakespeare play. Since I got him, I do almost every things with him: go to job, do the shopping, relax at the park... Rats are so intelligent! We can't get apart from each other!
Lessons & tips: - to invest in a HUGE cage is necessary
- read a lot on the subject BEFORE to get one
- It need as much engagement then a dog
