And who am I, you ask.
And what do I know about rats.
Well, I’ll tell you. My name is Ralph and I am a rat. And don’t laugh at
my name because it also happens to be my father’s name. I guess I’m what you
would call a junior only no one has ever called me that.
But that’s beside the point. My big gripe has nothing to do with my name.
What rattles my tail is the horrid reputation we rats have. And it’s all the
fault of you humans.
Humans have really given rats a bad rap. Why to listen to you guys’ talk
you’d think we were the worst things going.
It’s not something new, either. Humans have made the name rat synonymous
with scum from day one—even going so far as to make rat the worst degree of
scum.
