Hewwoz. Iz new rat! Needz namez! Wantz luvz.

Unnamed White Rat came home at the same time as Rawg and Rattatafish. He is an especially shy rat. When I met him at Ikea, he looked very sad. He was perched on the very edge of the shelf and kept looking at me. He looked like he wanted to be hugged and taken home, but also looked as if he thought it would never happen. Rat has these buck teeth, and i think he's hyper-aware of it. I think he's been passed over many times in favor of other ratz with better teeth, you see. He's painfully shy. Rat likes cheez like all other ratz, but nibbles instead of gnaws.

Email/chat me with suggestions, if you read this.
