Oh my gosh! Totally cute! I once had a hairless rat female and her dumbo sister that I kept for pets. Totally adorable!

Re: So ugly it's cute
My mom was chief of the medical investigation dep. at the local University, and as to be expected most experiments were made on rats and mice. As a kid I loved going there and handle the mice. But one week there were some, next week some couldn't be handle because of procedures and next week some were gone. I guess that helped me detach and appreciate them for the time they last.
There I learned that pups must not me touched during the first couple weeks, if you impregnate your scent the mother would eat her pups. [emoji51]

No offence to those that keep these things as pets, but to me they are stinky destructive pests one step above cockroaches. I have absolutely no problem feeding them to my snakes. We have a big problem with rats in south florida, no matter how clean you are. My brother makes a nice living eradicating rodents from expensive properties down here. To me they will never be cute.

HAHA I was the same way until I had a Grey dumbo rex rat unexpectedly show up in my live feeder order. I could not bring myself to feed it off so I started breeding my own feeders and have fun with all the different genetics.
