CLEVELAND (Reuters) - Animal control officers were working on Friday to remove approximately 300 rats from an Ohio studio apartment and will put them up for adoption around the country, a humane society officer said.

 Some of the rats were in cages but others roamed free and were living in holes in the walls and inside a mattress, said animal control officer Sheila Marquis, who said they have been placed with rat rescue groups who will find them new homes.

I wonder if this is a DUmmy. DUmmy and rats go hand in hand.

This can get out of hand.       As a kid I was given a little mouse and Dad built it a cage to live in.  A big sucker with all kinds of room to run about when I was at school.  Charlie the mouse was very tame would crawl down into my bra and peak out the  top of my shirts and sit on my shoulder and squeak at me.

One day I came home from  school to find Charlie had given birth to 8 baby's .  You can guess the rest, I came home one day to be told Dad  had gotten religious  streak and sent them home to the Lord.  Baptism  was his  way of going.
  By then we had a couple dozen mice in a cage and that one mouse of mine  had built as their Empire. Floods happen, mark one down to climate change.
