I've never had a pet rat, but have heard that they are highly intelligent and very loving when you form a bond with them.
I don't dislike rats generally, no matter what colour they are, or if they are wild or tame. I wouldn't encourage them into my kitchen however -to run (and probably pee!) all over my work-surfaces! As rats' urine can sometimes harbour Weil's disease. But I like to see them in the wild.
