Pat is my first male rat, and what an interesting life he's led. He was found on the steps of Centennial HS when still just a baby--I can only assume someone had abandoned him. A teacher took him in and kept him in a tank until Christmas vacation, when my chemistry teacher's daughter took him home. He spent the next 9 months or so in her house, until I ended up adopting him. At that point he didn't even have a name, so I named him Pat...short for Patriot, since Patriots are our school mascot. He's quite shy and obviously hasn't been handled even close to enough, so it will take some time to get him used to people, and maybe even to other rats...I got him neutered so that I could introduce him to my girls.
