Magrat munching on an Oreoby =wazabees

Photography / Animals, Plants & Nature / Domesticated Animals

And another rattie eating an Oreo. There were three rats, all sharing the same tiny Oreo cookie. This time it's Magrat having her turn munching. I know several of you commented on my previous rat photo, Esme and the Oreo, expressing concerns about rats and chocolate. Have a look at this comment to see =ghostlove's explanation.

Hope you like this one!

This little sweetie is the spitting image of my very first pet rat (when I was 7ish), Almond. I miss that little guy. What a beautiful reminder and a beautiful photo.

I never thought I would say this.... but this rat is sooo cute.
In fact I have been thinking of getting a guinea pig.
But I have heard rats can also be loveable.
I am glad you added the info and the other link. I would have to do some research first.
I could not get the guinea pig before because of my cats and dog.
I still have them, but I also have alot of extra time to spend with another small pet.
Anyway great pic
