Pet of the week: Bubba, the smart rat
Let’s hope Bubba meets the person or fur-mily of his dreams, since Thursday is Mouse and Rat Day. Yes, that sounds like a “Looney Tunes” cartoon, but Bubba is a white/tan point standard rat currently at Lowell Humane Society. Domestic rats are known for their intelligence and curiosity, and since these are social creatures, Bubba will need a buddy. This little guy came from a hoarding situation, so he’s a little nervous, but will come along to being “more social and hand friendly,” with patience and care. The Humane Society advises that: “rats need a cage with a minimum of 2.5 cubic feet, with wire siding, ramps, and platforms they can climb on, with enough room for their food, water, toys, and hiding spots. Rats are very intelligent creatures and need toys, puzzles, tunnels, and other enrichment to keep them mentally stimulated.”

Mike’s Pastry In Boston’s North End Still Draws Lines Out The Door For Cannoli
Some lines in Boston are for ballgames, and some are for concerts. One line in the North End forms every single day for something much smaller: a cannoli. People wrap around the corner, cash in hand, waiting their turn at a counter that has been famous for generations. The shop has been around since 1946, and it still acts like the busiest bakery in town because, most days, it is.
