It’s April 4. 
Today is “World Rat Day.”  Do you think a rat would make a good pet?

Trivial Fact of the Day:   A group of rats is called a mischief.  You can also call them a plague of rats, a horde of rats, a pack of rats or a swarm of rats.  Which collective noun do you think sounds the most appropriate?
