ok so my dad knows how much i love rats( i normally cant have them cause hes allergic) but anyways he was trying to buy feeder mice for his snake and everywhere he went to was out. So he bought 2 rats instead. he fed the snake one while i was gone and had the other in a cage in the back yard ( we have a kinda ghetto room built on our house made out of tarps so its in a cage in there to keep it out of the elements) So he told me theres no way i could have it. He told me not to get attached because it was gonna be eaten. So i've been plotting and scheming for 2 weeks now so i asked last night if i bought 2 mice if i could have it and hes like, no its getting fed to him tonight i was like he can wait hes like well you didnt wait im like soooo hes waited for 3 weeks before hes like fine, you have till saturday to get me 3 mice. So needlesss to say saturday morning im buying $6 worth of mice for the one rat. It's an albino girl and it needs a name now ^_^ so any ideas?

I had a mouse once, well actually three. There are lots of petnames online. I really wanted to post just to say thank you. My parents keep telling me to think of something I want for Christmas. At first I said I wanted s skateboard, but they said that I don't like to go outside and it would be a waste. So now I'm going to ask for a small pet. My choice is between a snake, lizard, small rodent, or a bird. So now its off for me, so I can do some research and write a list of supplies I will need.
umm ok when i saw this i was thinking rat like as in a icky brown rat like as in the one that was in our house last winter and im like your crazy but if its a fancy white petstore type rat i forgive you.
hmmmmm lucy..... or lucky cuse its lucky it wasnt eaten..... but i like lucy

well we had a dog named lucky that wasnt so lucky, and rats are pretty good pets would totally reccomend one ^_^ as for lizards and snakes or what not, all i have to say is snakes are temperamental, so if you do get one just watch out, lizards are mean ( well my iguana is and i now hate it and am trying to get rid of it cause it hates me). but as for small pets, guinea pigs are annoying but i loved mine ( just dont get male and female cause within a month you will have about 4 babies). Gerbils lose their tails easily and get loose (hamsters are bad for getting loose too). I also had parakeets and they were mean and vicious creatures lol thats why i stick to rodents. With a bird you should get them hanging toys, they love them. With a rodent, a house ( they like to hide) and depending on which you get.... a playpen ( my guinea pigs LOVED being able to somewhat get loose) a hamster a running wheel, rats....honestly my rats just spent time with me so they never needed anything lol if you get a snake or lizard just remember heat lamp and for the snake you have to feed it rodents and for the lizard you have to research their diet cause lizards are realllllllly hard to care for as opposed to other pets. Thats just my knowledge of the day ^_^ lol

............well.............apparently it was sick.........it was dead when i checked on it today :( i didn't even have her name picked out..... well There are some people in my area-ish that have rescued ones so im gonna see if i can adopt one of the babies. ( Because the people need to get rid of them) and they are actually meant to be pet rats.
