And maybe check out Karni Mata, a female Hindu sage whose temple is home to rats which are considered sacred. A person born under the Chinese Horoscope of the sign of the rat "is respected and considered a courageous, enterprising person".

You can see pics of my past lovelies in earlier posts, usually tagged "ratties are awesome" and/or "pets".
