Make sure you send your rats to the right Alexis. I sent my first batch to some random guy named AK5 who had Alexis Kennedy as his alternate name for some reason. (Name doppelganger? Alt account? Sinister impersonator?) If you want to add him to your contacts, make sure to put in "alexiskennedy" without a space! Don't make my mistakes.

Using the "Add to contacts" button on the profile page will also work.
but yes, AK5 is a mysterious doppleganger. Don't be fooled by imitation Alexii this holiday season!

On Ratmus Day, I send rats on a string. One thousand strong, a glorious thing. They are quite a sight In the middle of the night, Sacrificed for your rat bling.

I'd already sent him a couple bundles of rat by the time I learned of this. Sinister impersonator indeed.

I suspect there is some deep and meaningful reason behind this that I wasn't around for, but..oooh! A bandwagon! I can't see any way this could POSSIBLY backfire. *leaps*

You can send living rats.

Hmm, well I suppose that's only natural after being sent through the postal system. I'd be cranky and ready to stab someone too.
In any case, I'm on Flute Street, I forgot you can't post things here. (I thought I'd visit my rubbery acquaintances again for a change of scenery, I'd forgotten how long everything takes down here. It's such a pretty place, but rather tedious.)

Only two boxes of rats sent so far, but each one I send to Alexis (yes, even including the already send two) will be accompanied by a cheery snippet of Ratmas carol!
No way this could possibly end badly!

I do hope our acceptant can find a good use for the little ratties. Since, of course, I'm certain he'll be getting plenty today!

It's almost certainly a myth. Probably. ..hopefully.

It's Ratmas time, there's no need to be afraid At Ratmas time we send out rats with their postage paid,
And in our world of plenty, we can spread a smile of joy! Throw your arms around the Neath at Ratmas time!
But say a prayer - pray for the other ones At Ratmas time, it's hard but when you're having fun There's a city outside your window Full of stravling cats and fear Where the only water flowing, is The Bazaar's bitter tears And the Ratmas bells that ring there are the clanging chimes of doom
Well tonight that God its Alexis, instead of you! And there'll be lots of rats in London this Ratmas time The greatest gift he'll get this year is rats
Where fungus ever glows And the Stolen River flows
Do they know it's Ratmas time at all?
Here's to you, send some rats to everyone Here's to them underneath the burning sun Do they know it's Ratmas time at all?
Feed the Tiger Feed the Tiger Feed the Tiger Let him know it's Ratmas time
Feed the Tiger Let him know it's Ratmas time
Feed the Tiger Let him know it's Ratmas time
*repeat to fade*

Hee! I can't decide whether it's better or worse to send it with actual rats.
