I got a pet rat in October and let me tell you, i love miss angelina ballerina 🫶🏻 They’re so cute, smart and just really funny little things, i give her cucumbers, tomatoes, CHEESE! i think rats are a great first pet cause they‘re very chill. I take angelina out of her cage almost every day and play w her, but I only have to clean her cage every 2 weeks. She has a little hamster bottle and kibble always ready for her, and it’s just a lot of fun making a little plate for her of whatever im eating. They do have a very short life span but thats also what makes them a great first pet. Get yourself a pet rat, they’re awesome little creatures!

My parents got us a pet cat when this happened in our house. No mice will literally ever come in again - and it’ll be a good starter pet for your toddler!!!

I'm cheating a little bit because I never witnessed this personally, but a friend of a friend told me he lived in a 5-person house while at LSU and it had constant infestation problems. They put open food, like chips or nuts, in the fridge and they only had sealed cans in the cupboards because the roach and ant problems were so bad. But they also had the occasional rat. And when they would find a rat, they would herd it into a corner and trap it with big pieces of cardboard. They would set up stools around the makeshift cardboard pen. Then one of the roommates would go get his pet python and place it in the pen. Crack open some beers and showtime.

This is fatso (the real name she was given before me). She’s my 7 year old cat. I adopted her last year. All I know about her past is she lived in someone’s backyard with 30 other strays. Apparently she had a husband and that would fight big rats with her. If u live in small apartment and u have a busy life, getting a kitten is really tough. I recommend adopting an older cat if you would like a pet that isn’t a full time responsibility. She’s a sweet girl. She likes her distance but loves a back scratch. My home has become her home, that I also live in. We make it work.
