After all, if feral cats should be allowed to roam free without fear of poisoning, being trapped-and-euthanized, or otherwise coming to harm then why not give rats the same treatment?

Not sure what I saw , at first when it was climbing the bird feeder I thought it was a really big rat. Tail was super long which made me think maybe a muskrat. There is a river near the house and it always heads in that direction when I scare it off. This is the only time I got a good look at it.

In 2009 I met my best friend. She was a black cat about 2-3 years old. She had ran into someone’s house when it was raining one night and he took care of her until eventually he had a baby and the baby was allergic- so she was just confined to a room. She moved from house to house but no one was treating her the way she deserved.

The ginuea pig cages are small with very little toys same with the rat cages. They also sometimes house rats and Guinea pigs alone wich will cause depression. Hamsters also need to be housed alone and need around 3ft of space. The reptile care is horrible with the humidity levels being too low and they house chameleons together.
