Rats have got very bad reputation in Russia. In Moscow they are everywhere: in the underground, in litter bins, in cellars of block of flats. Huge, nasty, sneaky and very aggressive.
I used to be scared of rats. To overcome the phobia I got myself two pet rats - they lived happily together in a sort of enemy-friend relationship for almost 3 years. They were pet rats of course, I didn't catch a couple of wild ones in the street - that's for sure!
There are amazing animals and humanity owes them a great deal (keep in mind all those new medicine tests!)
