Rats are awesome. My sister had rats yeeaars back when I still lived with her, and I saw that they were good. Couple of my friends have/had rats and they were most delightful, my gf and I even had them as houseguests for few months. Curious, friendly, affectionate, curious, hyperactive-and-dozy ADHD-style, greedy, oh, and did I mention curious? My friend was out of town some days during Easter and it was my task to go over to his place and feed'n'water the rats. Two of the four (or five, I don't even know) I had met before, the rest were complete strangers. I was cautious and careful not to scare them and it took no more than a minute for all of them to come sniff my hand. I know they didn't really warm up to me, more like, "oh, I guess he's okay" and went all yipees and yays over the food but the second I made a sudden move, brushing off some crap or something, they went "AAAA OMG WTF", some zipping around the huge cage, some just freezing in place, shaking. I guess I should get acquainted with them some other time with their owner around... tl,dr: rats rock, they make me laugh
