Everyone loves rats

This is my rat Hooters (Named for the obvious reason!) who is turning 6 today! (Rat years 140) He's blind, lame and can't hold things, as well as having a cough that'd make Stalin himself feel compassionate, but he's still going strong and shall probbably linger on at least another year yet.

I doubt anyone wants to look at my rats or celebrate their birthday, so I included another reason to stare at this picture.
