Rats are all the same 'breed'.. 'fancy' rats.. or pet rats.. there are just different varieties.. there's the hairless, the rex (curly coat), double rex(looks a lot like hairless but has a little scruff..), satin (extra silky) and standard..
Then there's all the colors..
There are blues, agouti, biege, champagne.. the list goes on.. Plus different markings and eye colors..
If you want to know ANYTHING about rats got to
www.ratpalace.com
It was an amazing forum but had to close.. however all the information you'd ever need is there still.. you can't post but you can read..
The newest forum is
www.ratsahoy.com
In ratpalace there are lists of links as well.. everything you need!
And if you ever do plan to get rats ( you MUST get at least 2) PLEASE research! So many people get rats and think they're like hamsters.. they are not at all.. they need a completly different diet.. social interaction from other rats.. tons of toys and loads of attention from their people.. but you'll learn all that from ratpalace!
If you have any questions at all feel free to pm me.. I love going on about the little sweeties!
