Top twenty reasons why rats are better than people (just the thing for six o'clock on a Wednesday morning when it's still dark out and everyone else is asleep):
1. They don't judge you no matter how many 'spare tires' you accumulate throughout your lifetime (or whether or not you can fit into your skinny pants.)
2. They're good listeners
3. They will pretty much ALWAYS be excited by your cooking
4. Even if after two minutes they never look at it again, they're always GENUINELY thrilled when you get them a present.
5. When they're being mean you can put them in a cage.
6. Any one who's ever had to change a baby's diaper can't argue that rat waste management is far preferable.
7. If you dance around naked and talk yourself and they happen to see, it isn't awkward the next time you run into them
8. They don't hog the remote/your side of the bed/the comfy chair
9. They're always excited to see you when you come home
10. Their rat schedule is never too full to make time for you
11. They don't lie.
12. They'll stay up with you all night if you can't sleep without a complaint
13. When they do something bad they remain cute while doing it to soften the blow
14. They don't HIT ON YOUR MOM.
15. They'll never leave you for another man/woman as long as you care for and love them
16. They cost less to feed
17. They don't care about how much money you have / what kind of car you drive / how you dress
18. They're fuzzy and soft.
19. They don't hold grudges (At least most of them don't.)
20. They can get away with not wearing pants!
