Hello,
So, I have been doing a lot of research and it seems like ratties make awesome pets. I do love my guinea pigs, but it seems like rats are more social? Today I went to the humane society and there was a HUGE one year old rat. I think it was the biggest rat I have ever seen, he was adorable. I also found out that the people before him fed him french toast, which is probably why he is so fat. But, he looked like he had red crusties on his nose. Could that mean he is sick? I just would like to know from some knowledgeable rat people, before I adopt him. Thanks!!
