Brooklyn Cat Cafe Employs Rats To Care For Kittens | CUTE AS FLUFF

[@yoteawhirl1987]

Got two rats expecting them to be mini puppies. Did not expect them to be shoulder trained so easily and go hiking with me or ask to use the bathroom when on these hikes. Friendly, super smart, loyal, sweet and playful animal.

You're welcome to think the names aren't cute by any means, however you don't need to express it in that way. It works exactly the same with people's names, yet do you convey your opinions that way to them? It's a choice we as individuals should be allowed to make without being insulted for it.

She picked the mouse up, we drove straight to PetCo, got her all the supplies and she was nothing but a joy and delight for a year and a half. Smart, independent, super neat, and loving. A real gem, which is why I named her Sophie Pearl. To this day, I miss her. A great pet for someone who is pretty independent themselves. You HAVE to clean their little cage once a week; it's important for their health, but other than that, a complete joy to have. Do not underestimate a mouse or a rat. All creatures great and small.

Long-term rat owner here. I have never raised a rat that wasn't as sweet and smart as any dog I've owned. Like any animal, the only way a rat will be aggressive is if it was not bred by a good pet rat breeder, not socialized from birth and/or mistreated. The ONLY negative IMO is the short lifespan (2 to 2 1/2 years 😢). I love my rats as much as any pet, so every two years I am heartbroken to lose one of my girls. The only salve is a pair of baby rats. Lol.

[@DarkGhostHacker]

Well..... these are partially true...... I've come in contact with wild animals including wild rats and they are not like pets where they will be completely calm and friendly towards humans.... but they dont attack or show aggression either. They are just nervous. Second, the whole rats being dirty and overpopulating isnt the rats fault, its ours. Rats are filthy because of the massive garbage and polution we humans create. They are much cleaner in the wild. And the reason theres so many of them and they are pretty much pests is because we destroy the natural environment they come from. ANd in doing so remove the things that keep their population in check, like predators. So its our fault that rats are in the situation they live in now, not theirs. Besides all that, this shows that animals are just as capable of intelligence and empathy as we humans are.

[@simozimo09]

Arenita R. "Wild animals are not "nice", because they are wild. Have you seen any "nice" wild tigers or wild lions lately? They will gladly "'chew on an infant". Overpopulate????

You are far more likely to get a disease from a human than from an animal. That is a fact.

[@DarkGhostHacker]

Mosly true comment, but believe it or not, there are actually lots of wild animals that will not actively threaten or attack humans, depending mostly on what the humans do. This includes animals like tigers and lions believe it or not. I've seen people interact with wild wolves just as an example, and no not wolves who are kept in cages or are fed by humans, or live near human habitat, i mean fully wild wol;ves. But of course these people understand wolf behaviour, and knew how to interact with them. Otherwise the rest of your comment is fully correct, especially about humans.

[@patriciawalters6778]

Sorry, you're mistaken. Animal psychologists have evidenced by experiment that if baby animals are not socialized to accept other species in infancy, they will automatically reject any except their own. All baby animals (young enough) will accept attention from any individual that is kind to them. This is a survival advantage, not the same as love. The rats had ALREADY been habituated to cats, they had LEARNED not to be afraid of them. Rats are naturally fearful of all predators. This can only be overcome by very early social conditioning. This is programmed into most animals by natural selection, meaning, the genetic lines that were MORE FEARFUL, were more successful than the genetic lines that were LESS FEARFUL. Would be nice if you were right. Sadly, that's just not the way the world works.

Rats can be expensive because of vet bills, they get sick pretty easily. It's still not as much as you'd spend on a dog or a cat as they get older, but part of that is just cuz rats don't live nearly as long It's a crapshoot though.

So glad to see rats getting a good press for once. I have kept a lot of different caged pets over the years and can honestly say that rats are the best by far. They are affectionate, playful, inquisitive, really good fun, and can learn to do activities. There are also a wide range of lovely colours to be found from specialist breeders, or you can obtain them from rescue centres that have rats, as well as pet shops. If you're on the fence about a caged pet, please consider a rat, you'll be glad you did !

[@willnottel5598]

Growing up, my sibling also had a variety of pet rodents, and the rats really were the smartest, and just about the longest lived as well. The only downside is that they've got all the pep and personality of any cat or dog, so it hurts just as much when they go... and they go so fast.

[@no_peace]
