These are my babies.  Larry, Curly and Moe.

Rats actually make great pets.  They are very curious and friendly, they don't bite, and they are very intelligent.  My little guys know their names and will look at you when you call them (they don't come, but they will look at you).  When I first got them, they would poop as soon as I took them out of the cage to hang out; they are much better about this now.  They save it until they get back in the cage. 

RIP Moe 2004-2005

Unfortunately on Tax day (04/15/05) Moe became very ill.  I had to take him to the vet and have him put down.  He is no longer in pain and is in a better place.  I will miss him.
