Rats
Rats make great pets especially for those who don’t have a lot of room for a Rabbit/Guinea pig cage. Rats are great for people that don’t have a large backyard or are living in a small unit/apartment due to them not taking up a lot of space. Rats are larger in size compared to a mouse making them a better pet for a younger child due to them being easier to handle. Rats like any pet still need to be treated with care and handled calmly and carefully. We generally only have Standard bred rats in store.

Mice
Mice are similar to rats in the way you care for them. The biggest difference is their size, mice are very small in comparison to rats this means you have to handle mice with even more care. Mice make a great pet for any age and with proper care and handling they become quite affectionate.
