James Dean DOES love his rats - YorkieTalk.com Forums

beecee · 11-16-2011, 10:10 AM

So, IKEA was selling these cute little rats for a buck and the buck went to some charity. So I bought a couple.

When I threw one down on the floor Jimmy went NUTS, grabbed it up and ran with it and wouldn't let it go. He just carried it in his mouth and wouldn't let it go. He didn't growl, he was just adamant about keeping it.

He loves this thing and carries it around everywhere. It's just a soft plush toy but he thinks it's real. Such a cutie

Here he is at bedtime cuddled up with it

So cute! I wish we had an Ikea....I'd buy some rat toys!

Awww! How cute is that! The hubby and I are going to Ikea Friday while Katie Scarlett goes to puppy daycare. I will definitely see if ours has these and pick up some.

Nice rat! ;-)

WalnutHill · 11-17-2011, 08:22 AM

OMG too cute!

And look at that face!

Britster · 11-17-2011, 08:52 AM

A TRUE ratter

LOL. He is just sooooo incredibly adorable. I just love his name.

Ahis_Mama · 11-17-2011, 12:05 PM

lol it's ingrained. It's what they were bred for.

well..they are supposed to "kill" them..not love it up. hehe

beecee · 11-17-2011, 12:43 PM

Yup. that's why I got so excited and bought a few for him

I knew he would love it. He looked like a cat carrying around a mouse when I first gave it to him. He just carried it around and didn't play with it. Now he chews on its ears and feet and tosses it around.

He was crying when he couldn't get it from under the couch yesterday. So cute

Thanks for the comps everyone

He is such a cutie I can't stand it

LuvMyFurkidz · 11-17-2011, 01:51 PM

Awww....that is SO sweet. What a cutie pie too.

courtney1121 · 11-21-2011, 04:23 PM

Picked up 2 for Geno and he came up to bed earlier this morning with one in his mouth and he tried giving it to me as a gift....he must be confused haha

Namor · 11-21-2011, 04:33 PM

How cute!!!

miabellaamoure · 11-21-2011, 05:05 PM

I am suspecting this lil' rat just might have some hidden "catnip" placed inside it's body to please a kitty...I know my girls literally go bonkers for any of Miss Tallulah's kitty (catnip) toys...
