We have a small rat problem and I have to confess killing them is a bit depressing. They're just doing their rat thing. But I guess that's just the way it is.

I’ve had many pet rats and they’re awesome, but I’ve also had to deal with pest rats, and they’re not awesome. The traits that make them fun also make them a pain in the ass - smart, curious, persistent, hungry, agile, etc.

If it makes you feel any better, the wild ones are really mean. Justifiably so, but they don't want to cuddle
