Yes it's true, a day to celebrate the rat. Now in its eighth year the aim of World rat Day is to recognize the rat as a wonderful pet and companion animal for people of all ages.
It's a popular day amongst the rat owning community and apparently for rats themselves. Organizers claim that many rat fanciers will choose to celebrate World Rat Day by planning private parties, with friends and family attending and possibly bearing gifts and treats to unsuspecting and surprised rats.

For me though, It's a time to reflect on the boys I have and the rats I've lost.
Fang here was a sweet little guy who I lost much too early.
Rats do make great pets and I hope with all the rats pictures and stories I've been telling my readers for years that some non rat lovers see that they aren't vermin or pests like some tend to believe.
They are sweet, loving pets.
Never knew there was such a day, but with cats, I'd never be able to have one at my bay.
ReplyDeleteI just love their furry little faces! I had no idea that there was a World rat Day.
ReplyDeleteYep, World Rat Day. For all us crazy rat people. lol
ReplyDeleteNever heard of World Rat Day. People have mice, why not rats.
ReplyDeleteJO ON FOOD, MY TRAVELS AND A SCENT OF CHOCOLATE
Hope you and the boys have an extra special day :)
ReplyDeleteI feel bad for my girls because I didn't know that was a day. They did get a treat of choco curls for breakfast though, so I think they know they're loved. ;-)
ReplyDeleteWe had a great day.
ReplyDeleteClick, I'm sure they were happy to get some attention and the choco curls. :)
