I had 2 pet female rats a few years ago and for two years, a wild male rat lived in and around my (old) house for almost two years. I could not catch this ballsy rat with any attempt or trap known to man. One time the rat squared up with me on the stairs and I swear to god I ran away first. anyways I named him Ratboi and put up warning signs about him at rat eye level but he WANTED my girls. All of their rags and bedding would be pulled through the bars of the cage and chewed on and stuff. It was wild. Anyways.
rats are simply too smart man, I recently became an owner of two rat boys and in two months they learnt to open their cage (first two weeks actually), foiled my ratproofing 5 separate times, learnt they get farther into the forbidden zone (the bin) if i'm not looking and redecorated their cage too many times to count. All those smarts and they're using so much of it for crimes
Time to get a third rat and pay it to become an opressive police force and isntitute a rat police state.
You cannot contend with the power of love
Nono keep going.
