World Rat Day – APRIL 4

 

World Rat Day is a holiday designed to distinguish the fancy rat as a wonderful pet and companion animal for people of all ages. The holiday is to honor and promote pet rats as the wonderful companion animals they are. These pets are sweet animals that deserve greater recognition and admiration. There even an event called Ratfests, where many rat fanciers meet at a private home or special location to share food and rat-positive cheer. The pet rat is intelligent, devoted, clean, gentle, and imminently lovable. World Rat Day will prove all this to be true through the special efforts we make to honor our pet rats. One caveat to owning fancy rats is that their urine smells bad and if you have a sensitive nose you will need to change their bedding quite often.
