Whenever I say I keep rats. Yesterday for example i was in PAH and had my heartstrings pulled by the little girl in the picture i asked the guy if I could see her out and hold her. A girl walked past and said ewwwww she's holding a rat, thats disgusting.

Its the face they make too. They are the best pets but of course its ok if people don't like them but why feel the need to tell me their disgusting etc

Hi starshaker,

Would you mind if we put a little warning in your thread title? We've had a few reports from people who, while they were careful not to say "ewwwww", were still a bit unnerved by the rat pics.

We think they're lovely, obviously. Grin

@BertrandRussell

Referring to animals as little girls or little boys and fur babies gets the ewwwww reaction from me. And for goodness sake- a "trigger warning" because a thread has a minute picture of a rat? Give me strength!

To be fair, it wasn't an actual TRIGGER WARNING! It was just a nice, genial 'please note'. But we take your point. Wink
