On a shoot yesterday I met Peter Church. Peter has rats in his house. On purpose.
He brought them to the shoot because our scene was set in post-apocalyptic ruins (a.k.a. a scrapyard in Hamilton) and he thought his pets might add some colour.
We didn't end up using them, but they were so cute I don't think they looked the part anyway. I'm sure they're fine performers; they just weren't scary enough to play movie rats.
So Peter and I hung out all day, which meant I was also hanging out with his rats and they were making me go into this weird high-pitched, baby talk thing because of the cuteness overload. I'm not sure if this means I definitely should get rats, or definitely should not. Hmmm.
This morning I looked at the one area of my apartment that is free of clutter and thought, "I could put the cage there..."
Stay tuned.

I have had 2 rats during my life and in my opinion they make the best pets.
I wish you luck with your decision =)
That's great. Thanks, Aleisha! If I do get them, which I think I will, maybe you can give me some tips. :)
my bff Scott had rats for years. i can give you his email if you like.
Of course =) I'd be happy to help. You can add me on facebook (Aleisha McFarlane Campbell) or email me at aleishamcf at hotmail dot com
