Last Saturday I adopted two adorable rats. Please welcome...

LOLA (Ramona Dolores BonQuiQui Crawford)

TRIXIE (Beatrix Mulva ShaNayNay Crawford)

They are only 6 weeks old. They were rescued from an animal hoarder whose pet rats bred out of control. See links to the left about this rat hoarder case. Some of the females that were rescued were pregnant, and there were a number of litters born after the rescue. I went down to Andy's Pet Shop in San Jose with my buddy Lauren to get a couple of ratties for myself. They are such fun pets! Cute, hilarious, easy to look after, and quite entertaining.
