Meet Scabbers! My adorable rat!

This is Scabbers! He is very friendly and loving. People are often afraid or skidish around scabbers. I see no reason to fear him. He is one of the sweatest things on this earth! He sits on your shoulder and gives an occasional kiss on the cheek. He has NEVER bitten anyone and will NEVER bite. He is a himalayin rat and I have had him for about a year. I got him on January 11 and I count that as his birthday.  In the picture to the left he is on my dads leg. He is a lazy rat who is very laid back. I think he is a lot like a dog. He lays around like one and when you open the cage to get him he is ready to play. His favorite foods are deviled eggs and peanut butter crackers. He is a spoiled little thing.

UPDATE: Sadly Scabbers past away March 26, 2004. Rest in Piece my poor departed rat. If you would like to send a rest in piece message e-mail me at whisper_ams@yahoo.com.
