classroom pets
By Brenda

Clip to ScrapBook   
I have had rats as my classroom pets for years and they are wonderful pets! They do not smell, do not make messes and are very fascinating to students. We have even bred rats-the mommy and daddy were "Lucy and Ricky." Rats are also very tame and it is very unusual for them to bite. I have never had a student bitten in 16 years. Let me know know if you need more information. Believe me, your classroom will become very popular with the addition of rats for pets. Children love them.
