Ellen and Portia

Sorry I've been missing in action for too long. Between working and falling sick, I haven't been online much at all. The best company I've got are my two pet rats - Ellen and Portia. People often give me the funny eye when they hear that I have two pet rats. A girlfriend from work hasn't stopped teasing me about them since she found out - "because what every independent girl with an awesome apartment needs is two pet rats".

Rats really are not quite the rodents people make them out to be. In all honesty, I was a bit apprehensive about them at first too. They really are not the conventional pets people get; like dogs and cats. But they are every bit as affectionate (more than a cat, I'd say), intelligent and clean (if not cleaner) as any other pets. You can actually train a rat, the same way you train your dog to sit, turn-around and fetch, such as in the following video!


Anyway, keeping this post pretty brief, but I'll be back with more exciting stuff, promise!
And remember, rats are pets!

Love,
Chezza
