Naw!! My dream rat is a gray dumbo-rex. ;u; But I've never heard that they even exist >3>
My other sweetie is a tiny little hooded female, with the same colors as Rascal~ But seriously. He's like twice her size. .-.

I've always wanted a platinum rat with a blaze marking- they have one on the AFRMA site
I dont see why they couldn't exist- dumbos and rex's certainly could breed. Dont know how much luck you would have finding one though- I dont know about you, but where I am, people only breed rats for feeders, so it's really hard to find anything with actual decent breeding in it. I had to go out of the city to get mine- imbred rats die to quickly, and I like having them around. I tried to buy some from my local pet store once- big mistake. The male had a tumor on his stomach that I didn't see and they both were infested with mites. I went back a couple times to buy more because I felt so bad for them, but none of them lived past a year- it was really upsetting :(
My Hairless I've had for nearly 2 years, Ben for nearly 4 (he's really old, and you can see it in him- I'll be sad when he goes), and the two Fawns I just got this month. I think they are around 6 months. Ben is bigger than them all by far- everyone thinks he's a sewer rat lol

lolol.
Yeah, store rats are... puppy-milled u.u
I got Rascal from a rescue, so I feel proud of him >:D
There's got to be some ridiculous magic in my house, because all of our animals live waaaay past their due dates.
My rat before Rascal was a cinnamon/mink Fancy female named Zoku. I loved her with all my heart. When she was six years old (that's not a typo), she got a tumor under her elbow. It grew for nine months, until it was the size of a tennis ball, and the bottom was bald from where it dragged on the ground. It was devastating.
I ended up putting her to sleep when the tumor had grown so large that it used up too much of her blood, and a patch of flesh under her jaw had simply died and rotted, and turned green. When cleaned away, you could see her jaw bone.
It was really sad. But she lived seven freaking years. And my current female, Junan, is about 2.5 years right now. Rascals probably about 1.5 years. And the DAMN MOUSE is like 2. But he's never gonna die >>;; Unfortunately.

Not to mention your frog that lives off the dying and rotting flesh of crickets, that little guy should only live for two days (being from petsmartand all) Can I have some of your magic and sprinkle it on my guinea pigs please?
