My wife has five of these furry rats. And the article is right: the lights are on but nobody's home. They do nothing but eat, sleep, fish for snacks in my aquarium, and crap in the litter boxes. Their idea of interaction is getting underfoot when they hear the electric can opener. One of us is gonna break an ankle one of these days.

Gawd, I gotta get another dog.

That's why I put a noisy metal bell on my cat. I've got have some advanced warning when she's nearby.
