Hi. I've just joined the forum as myself and my boyfriend are looking for two rats, preferably girls. We've both kept rats before and are reasonably knowledgeable (and learning more every day), however we are based in London. I've heard of people mention rat trains, what are they? Is it at all possible to transport rats to London from Wigan?

Hi Liz and thankyou for joining RHU. I've pm'd Laura who will, hopefully, answer your queries

Thanks Julie :-)

Rat trains are possible, but london is quite a way away!!

maybe appeal for transport on here or on this forum http://www.fancy-rats.co.uk/community/ and see what people can come up with?
