Tails and whiskers are just two things I ♥ about rats and mice! These little animals are curious and intelligent, and just like us, they want to live.
Be sure to share these facts with everyone you know!
How can your friends and fam show ♥ for mice and rats? Tell them never to use glue traps and always to check the back of products for PETA’s cruelty-free bunny logo, which means that the product wasn’t tested on any cuties. They can check out our searchable database of cruelty-free products, too!
Tell us your fun facts about mice and rats in the comments section below!

Too long to explain here, it's long enough for a novel.
Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.
Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ
I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!
I'm tall, a geek, nacho - obsessed, I love sewing and Cath Kidston, also I'm vegetarian (wannabe vegan.)
Jersey girl now I'm all country.
I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.

I am Angela. When I am not helping animals I am listening to music, reading, or playing video games. My spirit animal is a fox and I love nature. What else is there to know? Want to know anything about me, need advice or anything message me :)

4. They are mostly considered dirty, filthy creatures

1. They like to go for long walks in the spring
)
So make sure you have a good sitter 
2. They will learn to do tricks for you just to win your affection (but they’ll appreciate treats too
3. They get really sad when you go on vacation and they might chew holes in things from the stress
4. They grieve when a loved one or family member dies.
5. They can be very easily and quickly be litter trained!
These are all the things I have learned from the company of pet rats in my house
