THE RATALOG! Yup, it's a catalog just for us and the vermin we love. My pick: the Grrreat Wall: a portable enclosure you can move outdoors or in which contains your rats safely while they run around. Also some nice rat figurines for the house. Your house.

FREE RAT DOLL PATTERN: You can make Roland Le Ratte from scraps. I sew him by hand while I'm watching TV. They're super stocking stuffers. If you make a bunch of them: imagine your holiday tree decorated with rats -- your mother-in-law will love that! If you want a bigger Roland, just print out the pattern and enlarge on a copier.

Rat Catching by Crispin Glover Years before he appeared in Willard, Crispin Glover created this art book based upon the book Studies in the Art of Rat Catching originally published in London in 1896. All of Crispin's books were self published in very limited quantities (1,000) and are out of print but you can find this item on eBay.
