: Hello all Mohicanlanders!
: I have a new item in stock, rather plentiful I might add, sort of breeding at an uncontrolable pace. I need to get rid of my surplus so they go out for free. I am still hooked on writing silly poetry so here is my new ditty:
: I have rats, tame white rats. Believe me, they make excellent pets.
: They are not messy, as those dogs, and certainly not stubborn as them cats.
: I love my rats, and that's a facts (okay, some poetical freedom here)
: But their fertility defies all bets.
: Mi casa is being trampled by those rats
: I'll lose my fortune paying for the vets.
: Dear Citizens, if you are looking for some pets,
: Won't you please consider some of my gentle and intelligent rats?
: Sincerely,
: The Dutch Trader
