The Baltimore Rat Meetup Group

"Hey, My name is Christopher and I live in the Middletown Delaware area. I have been a Rat owner for about 5 years. Most of my Pet rats were purchased as breeder rats from the petstore so I could save them as pets instead of them becoming food. "

"hello, my roommate and i have a pair of rats, albus and edward, who are just delightful. we love our ratties and we're always looking for some local rat-lovin buddies."

"Hi! I'm in MD and I just bought a pair of rats from Shylah, and they are doing great. I stumbled on this site and HAD to join!! I hope to breed my pair once they are of proper age. But they will be spoiled always!!"

"Hey, nice to see you up here! I was sorry I missed you and John at the Pet Expo in Jan. I assume you 2 are rather busy, but I'm glad to know you're still interested in knowing what us rattie folk are doing! Hope you can join us at a future event! : )"

"Elliott, I noticed a rat meet up has been scheduled for May 11th...is this accurate? Just an FYI, May 11th is Mother's Day."

"I'm so sorry about the location thing! Sam was cautious about strangers at her house, so I didn't want to put the address in a public place. I figured I would let people know individually, which would've worked, except that I forgot to check, and you got left out. I'm so sorry. I'm not sure when and where the next meeting will be, but I'll try to be more on the ball next time. Hope you make it then!"

"World Rat Day Cake - Yummy!"

"I am a rat breeder located in La Plata MD. I also rescue as space allows. I have a variety of dumbo, himalayan, siamese, rex, double rex, and hairless rats!"

"I live in South Jersey and am a member of The NYC Rat Meetup Group. I adopted 2 F Dumbos from the "LI 400" One had 10 babies that are 4wks old today 2/25/08."

"hi im a hobby breeder and i love rats i currently have only one pair though and im looking for a couple more"

"Hi! Rats make me happy :o) "

"Such cuties! Your brown self rat looks squishy! XD *pets*"

"Hi! I'm a mouse-person, not a rat owner, but I love my two little girls and would love to chat with other rodent lovers! =D"

"I am in New Jersey. I help with rat transport and have been helping coordinate adopters and available rescues. I have five adopted black hooded lab rats!"

"Hey! So it looks like its 2 so far...I'm sure the group will grow. So glad it's finally taken off the ground. I'm here for volunteering and doing as much as I can for our "rattie community". See ya at the Fairgrouinds! "J""

"Hi guys! Don't hesitate to email me about anything rat related- I send out info on events, lab block runs, vets, etc... I have contacts with several rescues plus people from VA to CT, so if I can't help, I am sure someone can! "
