Pet Rats and Mice - Information
By Ellen Brown
Children have always been fond of keeping Mice and Rats as pets-especially young boys. Intensive breeding over hundreds of generations has resulted in many colorful and interesting species. Rats and Mice are generally inexpensive and easy to care for. With regular handing, they are easy to tame and even grow to enjoy human interaction.

Turn a boring rodent cage into a luxury condo!
By Jess Hampton
Pet accessories can be very pricey, and aren't always made of the safest or best-quality materials. Don't despair! Rather than let a pet sit in a boring cage, you can outfit your pet's domain with unique toys, decorations and even pet 'furniture' from objects you have around the house.

Saving Money on Litter For Small Animals
If you're like me, you want the best for your pets. Since conventional pine and cedar litters are not good for the health of your hamster, gerbil, mouse, rat, etc etc, I use Carefresh, which is a recycled wood pulp paste (or something like that). Well that is EXPENSIVE.

The club currently has about 460 members in Australia, Canada, England, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Scotland, Switzerland, and the U.S. Our goal is to share our love of rats, promote them as companion animals, and spread information about their proper care."

Trust Training - Training Your Pet Rat to Have Fun
Trust Training: "If you have a baby rat who doesn't like to be held, remember that baby rats tend to be very active and often don't want to hold still to be held. Instead they want to run around and play and explore. See if your rat wants to play a game with you instead of being held. Then, wait until she is feeling sleepy to hold her. When rats are feeling sleepy, they are more willing to be held." - The Rat Fan Club Robyn
