A la Sir Lancelot ( Monty python and the holy grail ) style! Once he gets in his idiom...

Two different species knob.

Obviously you "knob". Cats and dogs are different species too and people usually prefer one to the other....knob face

Hamsters are friggen mean buggers. Rats are much friendlier.

Really?? My hamster wasn't mean when I was a kid.....guess that contradicts everything you knew about hamsters.

Tell that to foster farms

Uhm, I've had a myriad of pets. From rats, ferrets, to dogs, cats, and birds - haven't had fish though. Every single one of my pets I was able to let loose in my house and not worry. I even had the rats and ferrets trained so that when they had to go they'd scramble back into their cage, then meander back out again. Rats make amazing pets, actually. I prefer them over hamsters and Guenna pigs. (People have pet mice too, are you going to call them failures for having any kind of rodent pet and not keeping them locked up in a tiny cage?)

Lots of people have pet rats, and yes they do let them loose in their homes. I've never had a pet rat, but I've had plenty of hamsters that I used to let scurry around the house. What's so wrong about that? It's not like they're monkeys.

Id let a monky loos in my house before a rat. Id train it to fling poo at burglers also :)

-82 Your comment is very offensive to monkeys...:(

#78 Rats are so intelligent I didn't even have to train mine; they almost immediately began using the litter box (a rabbit-sized one in the cage) when I first got them, and would always run back in to eat/do their business/etc and then come running back out to play more. :)

There are many reasons to own rats: they are easy to look after; cute; affordable; smarter than dogs (they won't associate a bell with food if the bell is used just before feedings and at random times though dogs will always think food will come); easily portable; don't often bite; very friendly; very affectionate; can feed them pretty much anything healthy e.g. bananas, apples, seeds.

Who doesn't use a question mark? Also, who doesn't understand that rats an be pets as well as tarantulas, and snakes? You have issues.

Sounds like you have some issues you need to iron out.

Domestic snakes eat rats correct? Did you contradict yourself on this one? Is that enough question marks for you??

You should look up what vermin means and quickly realize that it isn't a legitimate statement. Then realize that no one asked you to begin with.

I know what vermin means thank you. A good example of vermin is rats (for normal people). Also yes nobody asked me to begin with thats y i said IF u sak me as in IF u ask me (pay attention here; i know nobody asked me) dats what i would say. U see? Its quite simple u artard

Why was the first part of your comment fine, but then as it went further it seemed like your IQ started dropping with each word after that? I'm quite confused here.

Hmm english isnt my first language dat might explain your mystery..

Mystery solved! Come on gang let's all go and get some scooby snacks for all are hard work.

Kinda of a bitchy reply...and I agree with whoever said your IQ seemed to drop with every word
