My dad did end up saying no to having rats, but he is going to let me foster a pair of females for a week until the rescue from South Dakota can pick them up. I will be getting the ratties over the weekend and the rescue person is coming on the 16th. I will be very excited to have them around, even if I can't keep them. :(

I know! I have had 3 before. I love them. I had a very special bond with my last rat, Winslow. He was my baby.
I'm picking the girls up tomorrow. Pics to come. I'm looking forward to spending some time with them before they go to the rescue. ;)

10 months old is a fully grown rat. They are breedable by the age of 4 months, so 10 months is well into adulthood.

I hope you have fun with the ratties, even if it is just for a few days. Rats are wonderful pets. It is a shame so many people think they are dirty, disease carrying animals. If only they knew how adorable and cute they are.
