Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage.

Happy to find this is not just emotional click bait.

"Which is a lot to expect from a rat"... Harsh scientists. Ive kept rats and honestly the best way to describe them is shoulder dogs. Theyre so much like mini dogs its crazy, affectionate, funny little things
