My Crazy Obsession, TLC's exposé on the world's more whimsical hoarders, returns to the network April 3.
Ahead of the premiere, the network is starting to release a few clips of its latest subjects -- like this one of Chantale. She's a wife and mother who also happens to treat her 19 pet rats like children.
"It smells like nachos," she says, after nuzzling one of her rodents.
Life isn't a total breeze for Chantale, though. While her son appears to be on board with his siblings, her husband asked her to move them out of the house.
Other obsessives getting showcased during the upcoming season include a woman with more than 6,000 pieces of pig paraphernalia, a man constantly preoccupied with Barbara Eden and someone living as a "merman."

Mostly about places and people I want to avoid.
I'm out of the rat owning but at one point I had 10.
OH.
You're not Zoolander.
pretty sure half of these mofos are just making shit up to get on televisioin
this woman takes it too far tho.
"when I cry, they lick my tears. and when they're hungry I feed them" those sentences were a bit odd paired up together. Like I was expecting her to say that she lets them eat her or something.
Plus, rats are really awesome companions imo.

omg there is a mouse at work. Some lady in the desk across from me found droppings all over her drawers. I think mice are cute but I hope it doesn't move to my desk.
You know you're getting older when you can remember when TLC once stood for "The Learning Channel". Now it's more like the "Exploitative, Let's Make Fun of People With Differences or Mental Illness!" channel.
