Yes, that’s a Chicago RAT flying a plane that carries a message to people from the animals: Save the Planet. Laura Junge is the artist of this new mural on the side of a building in Chicago’s East Lakeview neighborhood. A fellow rat/mouse lover and former pet owner of a few I find it interesting that she says she always includes a rat in her artwork. I do know that they are too prolific and often times unsafe for city residents, but they are indeed animals and deserve some respect.

Copyright 2023 Pamela BreitbergAnimals sense the change in our environment and earth sooner than humans quite often. We need to pay attention and care about everyone, human or otherwise. That includes caring about our plant lives too. Copyright 2023 Pamela BreitbergMs. Junge tells a strong story in a light hearted manner. Hopefully her message is absorbed and moves us into caring each and every day. Copyright 2023 Pamela Breitberg
