I have recently decided that i will be taking in one of the peoples on this site's puppy. I was just curious as to how this process usually takes place. I am sure there have been others on here that have taken in rats before. Do you usually just find a meeting place and switch off? I just want to go about this the safest way... please give me your advise and opinions!

If I were you I'd meet at like a petco or something like that.
Donna and I met at a casino. (First time to a casino and I didn't even go in haha)

Who are you getting? Or if you don't want to mention it, that's fine too.

I am taking the puppy in because I don't want him to take it to a shelter... I wasn't looking for a new baby so soon but he is to adorable to let be taken to a shelter. I will keep him until I can find him a safe home... unless him and Mia just cannot be seperated....

Um, yeah! If you want to get anything worth buying around here, we always go there. It's like 20 minutes and it's not as crazy as the galleria (cept round christmas) Our mall is a joke.

 

I kind of remember him, but kind of not. I haven't seen him on in a while. When are you going to get him? Mr. Biggs is a cute name.

Yah... if you go to the members tab right next to where you click my profile you can search him click on the ps and he is the last one on the page i think... Yah i like his name!! I don't think he is... he 4 months i believe but he doesn't even have a crate or flea meds or anything yet. I think he said he has some sort of worms too... but has yet to get him in to see the vet.

I'm really glad you think you'll be able to offer Mr. Biggs a home. Just please use caution when giving out any information and arranging a meet-up. Personally, I would err on the side of extreme caution (and an above board person will understand this). Arrange to meet in a public place and take another person with you.
