At least they didn’t catch a virus from the African Green Monkey breeding facilities.

Ratteries

They come in two classes.

Expensive shades and cheap sunglasses.

I’m sitting here thinking that a species jump for a virus is almost always bad.

I’m buried deep in the hills of Iowa County, now. Left Madistan behind a year ago. (Should’ve been sooner, but, circumstances...)

If that rat virus wants me, Good Luck! He can’t FIND me via Google or GPS. ;)

Thanks for the Heads Up, though! *HUGS*

Stands to reason, since the common rat virus has killed a large portion of California.

What is the lab staff doing with those rats. They should know better than to accept anything that a rat offers for free.
