I rather be the city rat than the country rat

Today, I will be sharing with you my reasons why I would rather be the city rat than the country rat.

Firstly, a city rat gets to indulge in good food. Why wouldn't someone prefer to be a city rat when they have the opportunity to eat a lot of good and tasty food ? A city rat has the priviledge of not only having a considerable access to food, having only to turn to the nearest restaurant perhaps down the street but they are also assured of the quality and taste of the food as the food a city rat consumes are is consumed by food loving members of the general public. In constrast, a country rat will have trouble even finding adequate food to keep them alive. They do not enjoy the steady stream of food that the city rat enjoys. Furthemore, they cannot even think of finding good food for there are practically none in the countryside.

Besides that, a city rat will have good accomodation as compared to a country rat. A city rat have only to turn to the nearest household to find shelther . This not only provides the much needed rest for a rat after a hectic day but also provides a shield from the rat's natural predators such as snakes, mongooses, etc. In comparison, a country rat is much worse off because of its lack of good places to stay. A country rat will be able to find shelter, but not without much trouble and time. So why waste all the trouble and time? Isn't it better to be a city rat?

In conclusion, being a city rat is indeed more enjoyable than being a country rat. Thus, it follows that I would prefer to be a city rat rather than a country rat. This wraps up my discussion for today.

Very detailed. But how about some benefits of being a country rat?

Quite a good post but I think you forgot about the greatest enemy of rats, the cats. There are many cats in the city as the people need them to prevent their food from stolen by the rats. You should think again about your decision for choosing to be the ciyt rat rather than the country rat.
