Meeting Ms. Jingles

Before our first lab, I was kind of hesitant about holding a rat. However, Ms. Jingles soon changed my mind. We chose to name her Ms. Jingles after the rat from the movie The Green Mile. Hillary picked her up first, and right away I could tell right away that this would be a pleasant experience. When she passed Ms. Jingles off to me, she seemed unafraid and didn't try to jump out of my hands. On top of being surprisingly calm, she was and much cleaner and softer than I thought she would be. After this positive first experience, I'm very excited to see what Ms. Jingles will be able to learn throughout the rest of the semester.

Me and Ms. Jingles!!
