Description One of my two pet rats, Lan. He is a top ear double rex rat, one of the weirdest coats you'll ever see. His fur is very thin and soft and you can see all his skin and wrinkles like a hairless rat. While he is nearly naked everywhere else on his body, his face has thicker fuzz and a little widows peak.

He is so affectionate and will start licking your hands whenever you put your fingers near him, I love to pick him up with him facing me and kiss his belly and his little bald head. I cherish the little guy. He is totally a ladies man and a mama's boy and I love him for it.

To see my other rat, Thom: [link]

i know what you mean about the hair, my cat has got a little patch of that, that goes from his right eye to his right ear. i have no idea why or how, the rest of his coat is above averagely thick, not fluffy, just thick

Awww! So cute! How did you manage to take pictures of your ritten? I have two of my own and they move so much when they're out of their cage. >.<

Well I'd say luck has a lot to do with it
As boy rats they are also pretty lazy, even at a young age, so after running around for awhile they'll find somewhere comfy in my room and start napping. Most of the pictures I take of them is when they are conveniently not moving as much XD

I thought this was a hippo from a distance and I got really really happy. But your rat is still very cute.

If I had a rat I'd name him Pettigrew.

My bestie and I almost bought a rat yesterday and it made me think of your Lan. I used to have a mouse, but my mom accidentally killed her when I went to college, so she owes me a rat, but she wouldn't let me get her yet. D:

Just felt like sharing. ><

If you get a rat be sure to get at least two, they are very social animals and they absolutely need at least one cagemate to live the best life

Yeahhhh unfortunately it took my mother all of two days to go back on her word. Kind of a record for her. As much as I'd love to have a pet I'm not allergic to, it's just not going to happen. ;A;

Awe that sucks, and it's why I like being an adult with my own rules. Maybe someday
