Hi Deneb, That was an interesting post!
My daughter & her friend used to have rats. They were great pets. The both ended up dying of cancer though (at different times). The only thing I'd suggest in your research, is to check out how prone to cancer rats are (I think I remember my daughter saying that they were prone to getting cancer) & what their average life-span is, just to know ahead of time.
As I've said before, you sound like a GREAT pet owner!!!
hugs, Kath
