They put me in a room.
A rubber room,
A rubber room full of rats.
But the rats,
They all wore
Little rubber
Birthday party hats.
"Surprise!" they cried,
"This is your demise!" they cried.
And so the rats,
And the rats,
Made me crazy.
And they put me in a room,
A rubber room

🐀 Rats are meticulously clean animals. Both domesticated & wild rats spend a significant portion of their day grooming.

Despite their social & cognitive abilities, tens of millions of rats are exploited in US laboratory experiments. Rats deserve better. 💜

Screenshot of a website about World Rat day showing a photo of two young fancy rats and text saying: World Rat Day How many days until World Rat Day? World Rat Day is being observed today! World Rat Day comes on April 4 every year to honor a pet or a companion for people. Rats are long-tail and belongs to the superfamily Muroidea. Usually, rats are only distinguished from mice by their size. The muroid family is complex and very broad.

Oh, it's that time of the year again!
Happy World Rat Day, everyone 🐭🎉
Pet your friendly neighborhood rodents today and be especially nice to them, life is extra scary when you're just a little guy~
