00:00I think the biggest misconceptions about rats are that they're extremely dirty and scary and people think that they bite, but they are super awesome animals.
00:15I would like to change the misconceptions by helping people better understand how rats are and how much love they really can give.
00:24Hey there, my name is Caleb, I am 23, I am from South Africa and I am the owner of the Sushi Rats.
00:33I have 6 rats and they are all named after different pieces of sushi.
00:38So, I have sashimi, nori, unagi, blue, hamachi and sticky rice.
00:46I chose rats because they are super friendly and super cute animals and they are just like pocket puppies.
00:54So, some of the different personalities, let's start with unagi.
01:02Unagi is her own boss, loves to do tricks for food and a sweetheart.
01:07Then we have blue, who is super lazy, loves to eat, always open to giving kisses and loves to get massaged on his back.
01:16Then we have sticky rice, who is super playful and he always wants attention.
01:22But, with all that attention, he does get bullied the most in the cage.
01:27So, I began filming in lockdown and it really took off on Instagram and TikTok.
01:41It all started over here with this little guy named Blue, our million view rat.
01:47I think the most positive feedback I get online is that people are now open to getting rats or just not thinking that they are disgusting animals.
02:01I think they are just super cool animals and that they deserve more from this world.
02:06well.
