Pet Rat Care And Training Guide.

From: Colin Patterson


Boston, Massachusetts

Dear Fellow Rattie Lover,

What first got me so interested in pet rats almost 3 decades ago was their amazing antics. How could so much personality be balled up in such a small animal?

How could they — unlike a lot of other small animals — be so genuinely caring? And have such a strong gleam of intelligence in their eyes? And make me laugh for hours watching them play?

When I first went to my friend’s house one day in 1978 to meet his pet rat, I wasn’t so sure, since I had preconceived notions about rats.

But then when his rattie grabbed my pant leg with his little paws, my heart melted. Then my friend told me that his cute little rat wanted me to pick her up…

I lifted her up high, and the fuzzy little rat nuzzled her nose into my ear and…

I Became Hooked For Life

Since you’re at this page because you’re a rat owner or contemplating getting rats, I’m sure the story is similar for you.

Well, let me tell you… ever since my first acquaintance to rats, I’ve owned over 1,000 of these amazing animals. They have been great companions to me.

I learned everything I could about them, went into breeding, and compared notes with other respected rat breeders through the years.

For the past couple decades, I’ve been proud to do my part to help spread the popularity of pet rats. You might have heard me on the radio. (I’ve been a guest on many local interview shows on AM stations.)

I’ve even taken my trained rats onto local news shows in major markets such as Boston to show what my ratties can do.

And, as a breeder, I helped a lot of new owners of rats who’d just brought their ratties home. Because I’ve been in contact with rat experts and new owners, I’ve been a little saddened to discover that…

There Are A Lot Of Misconceptions


About How To Properly Care For A Rat

You see, while rats make remarkable pets and bring so much happiness to the people around them, they need the right kind of home. They need the right kind of care.

• You need to do certain things to make sure they’re as healthy as can be.

• You need to do certain things to make sure they’ve got the perfect living environment, that both challenges their curiosity and keeps them entertained.

• You can easily prevent any behavior problems… if you know what to do.

You see, ratties also need the right kind of training. Train them correctly, and you will have so much fun (as will they!). That’s because, as you probably know, rats are very intelligent animals. That means they have the potential to not only be well behaved, but to do some tricks that will dazzle your friends and family.

And the problem is that there’s not a whole lot of information out there about pet rats. You go to the pet store, and you’ll find plenty of books on gerbils, hamsters, and even mice. But not rats.

So I decided to write the book myself.

Because you know what the best part about rats is?

There’s An Easy Way To Take Care Of


Your Rats And Have A Happy Life Together.

You can have a great relationship with your ratties. You just need to know how.

	Taking care of your ratties is easy and inexpensive. Pet Rats by Colin Patterson will show you how!

So I decided to package up my secrets in a guide that I call — what else? — Pet Rats: How to Easily Train and Care For Your Ratties…To Have a Happy Life Together.

Even though it’s concise — just 110 pages — it’s a complete guide. There’s not a lot of fluff or filler. Sure, you may find other books that take up space with pictures. Mine doesn’t. Instead it’s packed with useful information.

Plus I wrote it in plain, conversational English that’s easy to follow. As a complete system, it’ll reveal to you everything you need to know about your pet rats.

Here are just some examples of what you’re about to discover…

Imagine How Amazed Your Friends Will Be


When They See Your Pet Rats Doing Neat Tricks

If you’re like a lot of pet rat owners, right now you have trouble getting your friends to even come see your ratties — mostly because of all those negative popular images of domestic damsels in distress climbing on kitchen chairs shrieking, “Ekk! A rat.”

When you get my guide, you’ll dazzle your friends and family as they see your rats doing amazing tricks like walking on their hind legs, kissing you on command, and perching on your shoulder!

Before, it would have taken you many months to have your rats trained enough to do these tricks. Not to mention that you’d still be confused about how to care for your rats and have a great relationship with them.

But my guide makes it really simple for you.

Please take a look at what some of my readers have said (pasted from their emails exactly as they wrote it)…

How Much?

Well, let’s start with this: how much would you pay to have a joyful and wonderful life with your pet rats?

How much would it be worth to you to make their lives as good as they can be?

How much would it be worth to be able to extend the lifespan of your pet rats by 6 months or more?

Well?

If you’re like most pet rat lovers, the answer is probably, “A lot.”

Would it be worth $500 to know that almost overnight you can have your rats eating the healthiest diet possible, to live as long as they can?

Of course you know that I’m about to tell you it doesn’t cost $500… that’s not what I’m asking you.

I’m asking you: if I could show you how to have a ret rat that’s happy, healthy, well-trained, and loves you dearly… would that be worth $500?

You and I are rattie lovers; we both know the answer is, “OF COURSE!”

So when I tell you that I’m only going to charge you a modest investment of just $29 for my guide — and that you can be reading it 2 minutes from right now (even if it’s 2 AM!) — you’re going to just go ahead and order, right?

I know when you get my guide, you’ll be just as happy as the customers above who wrote me. If not, I want you to ask me for your money back.

That’s right…

I know. That sounds crazy.

The truth is this: since you’ll be downloading this guide onto your computer, if you ask for a refund, I have no way to “get my guide back.” In fact, some people will come to this site with the full intent of getting a refund and ripping me off.

I don’t think you’ll do that, because as a lover of ratties, I think you’re honest and good for your word. But here’s my guarantee: grab my guide to pet rats, take your time reading it, discovering its secrets, and applying the enormous knowledge you’ll gain.
