The Crazy Rants of Samantha BurnsYou Dirty Rat
It seems that the weird get weirder.
Many pet owners are beginning to bring their rats to groomers, who use waterless shampoo to shine their coats.
For $10, you can have your favourite rodent pampered by getting its claws clipped, getting a shampoo, and using a flea and mite killing product
Some groomers seem to love treating the little rats. one even states,
"It's an obsession to me. Sometimes when they get nervous they (urinate) but they don't usually bite."
That's one obsession I'll never have - I can guarantee that.
So, what's next? Snake, Tarantula, or pirhana grooming? Ouch, no thanks.
PS to rat groomers - I believe you are needed in New York. I think their subways have many available clients, at least, so I've heard.

I better start offering a degree in Rat Grooming - seems like a lucrative business.

Just so long as they don't groom snakes and rats at the same place, I can see where there might be some problems there.

I wonder if the rats can request "the rats nest" hairstyle. I've donned that look myself a few times, usually when i've woken up in a hungover daze!

That is so not right - on the other hand, it is nice to know that all those mangy rats out there now have someone they can go to.
I feel better already.

Can I go to one of these places to have my snake waxed?
Wait, I think I might have misunderstood...

LOLOL! I didn't know a rats coat could be shined. Now I know.
Do they put nail polish on the little, bitty claws too?
