Welcome to Chorrol, Roaring Elf! Now concerning rats, did everybody's pet rats die at around 2 years old? Because they told us at the petstore that was their lifespan and our two died exactly at two years. It was like they were bred to last only that long or something. We never got a third.
Got a tarantula instead. He was thirteen years old when we got him. His name was Abdul. Every half year we'd give his old skin away to a friend cause he'd crawl right out of it and it looked just like a tarantula only light as a feather. He was 16 when his tank light failed and we didn't realize that the air conditioning was too cold for him in time. He was bigger than my hand, I still miss him.
***Alert, Alert!! I just realized that I may have induced the Happy Kitten Police to appear due to telling a sad story. Please disregard the last half of the above post. *** OMG-not the KITTENS again!!!
