New Class Pets

Room 4 has two new additions in class. Max and Jay Jay are our new class pets. Both Max and Jay Jay are domesticated rats, both are boys and very friendly. 

Here are some facts about domesticated rats:

1. When rats are happy or playing, they let out a cheerful sound that is similar to laughter.

2. Rats don’t have great eyesight so they rely on their adorable whiskers to interpret their surroundings.

3. They’re really clean animals—cleaner than cats!

4. Their tails give them a great sense of balance, which makes them amazing climbers.

5. They’re excellent snackers and their diet should consist of a good amount of fruits and veggies.

6. Rats are little adventurers and they were one of the first animals to make the trip to outer space.

7. They’re smart little critters. They’ll learn their name and you can even teach them tricks!

8. Rats are stupendous nappers and they spend about 76 percent of daylight hours sleeping.

9. They’re tiny little creatures with big personalities, kinda like pocket-sized puppies!

10. Most of all, they’re smart, sweet little cuties who love to form a bond with their human.
