Thankfully This Guy Doesn’t Live in Toronto

MONCTON, New Brunswick, Feb. 6 (UPI) — It may be the Year of the Rat in China but every year is the year of the rat for one Canadian man who purposely has 87 of them in his home.

Clark Graham, who lives in the Moncton area, takes in abandoned pet rats as part of his Angel’s Heart Rat Rescue adoption program, Canwest News Service reported. He’s been at it for five years now, charging those who want to adopt a rat $10 to $15.

“I look for people who do not want them for food for their snake,” he told Canwest in a telephone interview Wednesday.

Rats get a bad rap as disease-spreading vermin but Graham finds them friendly and loyal.

“They love the company of people,” Graham said. “They crave it. I walk into a room and they all jump up and want me to come see them.”
