Rats take over KFC/Taco Bell

This is very loosely veg-related.  Here is a video about a KFC/Taco Bell in NY that had to shut down due to a rat infestation.

I wouldn't have eaten here, regardless of the rats, and I probably wouldn't want to eat at any restaurant that had a rat infestation, but I think these rats are really cute!  I may be the only one-- I love rats.  I like to imagine these rats are staging a protest against KFC for animal cruelty.  This is their very sneaky way of getting people to stop eating here.  They are so smart!  :)

Yeah,
I saw that video this morning just before going to work...
I don't want to eat in a infested restaraunt either but those poor guys don't know what they are in for.
I live in manhattan and  have met many people that say they have seen herds of them late at night in alleys and stuff, crazy! but i must say I love the little dirty buggers. I feel bad they are going to be killed just for doing what they need to do. :-(

Go rats!!!

hehee  ^.^

And, rats can be very cute when they are taken care of--ie they are like pets.
They're just big mice with an unfortunate sounding name and an unfortunate history - bubonic plague bringers.

Poor enormous vermin....
Actually, rats are pretty cool - the clean kind.  I know someone who used to keep one as a pet, and they apparently make excellent pets.  What cracks me up is that seeing rats in NYC is NOT unusual.  It must have been a REALLY slow news day.
