Alright, alright, alright already!!!

It looks like a RAT!! :-\

Geez Lueeze!!!

Everybody ..........It looks like a rat!!!!

So now we ALL know he's a rat of some sort, I confess he looks very
suspiciously like Rattus rattus.

Rattus rattus is also known as the black rat, and is found on all
continents except Anartica. . He is cometimes confused with Rattus
norvegicus, or the Norway rat, which really is not a rat with a
Norwegian accent, but rather a Bejing accent. He just lives in Norway,
his second home. From there, he sent his sons and daughters first all
over Europe, and then to the rest of the world. The first Norway rats
showed up in the new world around 1770.

The two can be confused, but the Norway rat is generally a bit bigger,
and brown/grey while Rattus rattus is black. They can be be further
differentiated by the temporal ridges. Straight on the the Norwegian
rat, curved on the black rat. Norway rat also has no hair on the ears
and tail. He is also grown and bred for whiteness and sold as housepets.

AND GET THIS!!!!!............both Rattus rattus and Rattus norvegicus
are members of the MOUSE FAMILY!!! Yea!

And there you have it. Everything you didn't want to know about rats!!!

Now we need a name and I am open to suggestions. Mail some
recomendations to me for review. Be sure and put Vanagon Mouse in the
subject line. If I get a bunch of names, I will compile a list and then
put it out for a vote.

Please participate, Volks. I would like this to be fun, and to come up
with a good name that sticks.

If you would like to take another look, here is how to get there.
