It's fine that you like rats, but to people who have had them in their house without wishing for it, seeing them can be quite scary. I speak from experience. Not hating, just pointing out the other side of the coin.
Basically, just don't go near a nondomesticated (or unfamiliar) animal if you can help it. Nondomesticated animals in urban settings - especially critters with strong social structures, like, say, rats - make excellent disease vectors.
Excellent comment, and sounds like something a stoner would say.

I've always wanted a pet rat. My whole family loves them cause they're so social and friendly (At least all the ones that my cousins' have had have been like that), but we have 2 dogs, and we're all going to be working once they're gone, so we don't have much time for another pet.
I have a pet rat, he's epic. Rats also are being trained to be bomb-sniffing animals because they're so light that they can crawl over bombs and they won't blow up, as oppose to a dog. They're awesome!

Yea I've seen that too domesticated rats are awesome wild rats not so much
I agree with you. Too many people refuse to differentiate-- whether lumping pet rats in with wild rats and saying they're all horrid, or confusing wild rats with our cuddly pets and saying they're adorable. People really need to learn there are two types.
Not one.
