Pretty self explanatory. Post animals, post pets, post stuff about animals and pets!

Rescued or kidnapped?
A rat in the wild isn't in an ideal situation for said rat.
If you're somewhere that rats are native then you should leave them be, if the choice is between killing them to protect our native species or keeping them in nice conditions until they die of old age then I'd hardly call it kidnapping!
