Oh Rats!

Today when we got our sea shipment we discovered we have 9 new family members... Grandma Rat, Grandpa Rat, Papa Rat, Mama Rat, and 5 baby rats.  And they didn't cost us anything to import from the U.S. or perhaps Dubai. That's in contrast to the cats that cost almost $5000 to bring across. 
 
Good news from the shipping company... they have never, ever heard of anyone else having rats show up in their shipment.  So rest easy, expats to come.   I was kinda bummed not to have a rat story to tell like all the expats that have preceded me.  Now I have my very own rat story.  And I have cats to finish the story for me!
