Bug.

Newer Older

I'm loving the fact that I've changed a few peoples opinions about rats with my photos of Bug. Rats are such lovely animals, they're so misunderstood. I have had three rats all in all, and each one has been totally different. Bug thinks she's human, I'm sure of it. She acts like a baby and I treat her like mine. In my opinion, they're just as good pets as cats and dogs.

    Beautiful photo! I just wanted to ask, did you give PETA permission to use this photo as a holiday card for them to sell?

    I saw it here www.petacatalog.com/products/2009_PETA_Holiday_Card-233-1...

    Someone posted about it on Goosemoose and I recognized Bug in the picture. Just wanted to make sure they got your approval for it! :)

    It is so true...my brother and sister in law have two rats and they are the sweetest, cutest things ever. So good with kids, so sweet & loving and adorable how they love each other too. Bug is definitely the emissary for ratkind. She is the cutest thing in the world! :)

    This is too adorable. The lighting and composition are to die for.

    I read the caption for this photo, and I wanted to let you know that after looking through all of your photos one day last year, I fell deeply in love with rats. Immediately I found out everything I could about them, and soon after I had two of my own. Thank you so much for introducing me to these wonderful creatures. My boys are the best thing to ever happen to me.

    domesticated rats are wayyyyyyyyyy better pets than hamsters or gerbils!
    so much smarter and affectionate.
    yay, bug! (supercute)

    Last Sunday I visited a friend and there I saw a rat for the first time - since there I'm in love with! Totally cute! She was so lovely and was far away from that I thought about it! And since I've seen bug and your new little rats..I'm lost ;-) By the way - you are very talented!
