Anyone Want To Adopt A Rat?

No I am not talking about this rat (which can be found on Mott Street in Chinatown).

No, I am not talking about New York City’s ubiquitous scab busting rat either

While amusing, this Rattus Norvegicus is clearly deceased. Not a very fun pet!

I’m talking about these guys who now call Empty Cages Collective their home. Empty Cage’s Co-Founder, Lisacat, writes:

I can speak from experience, rats make awesome companions. They are affectionate, playful and very intelligent. These albino rats were going to be killed after being “used” for a semester’s class of vet tech students.

So if any of you out there want to give one of these little fellas a home (it IS the year of rat, you know) please contact Lisa at Empty Cages Collective via email at emptycagescollective (at) gmail (dot) com.

Squeak!

P.S.: The more conventional among you will be pleased to know they also have plenty of cats and kittens for adoption!
