Rats

Rats are various medium-sized, long-tailed rodents of the superfamily Muroidea. "True rats" are members of the genus Rattus, the most important of which to humans are the black rat, Rattus rattus, and the brown rat, Rattus norvegicus. Many members of other rodent genera and families are also referred to as rats, and share many characteristics with true rats.

Rats are typically distinguished from mice by their size; rats are generally large muroid rodents, while mice are generally small muroid rodents. The muroid family is very large and complex, and the common terms rat and mouse are not taxonomically specific. Generally, when someone discovers a large muroid, its common name includes the term rat, while if it is small, the name includes the term mouse. Scientifically, the terms are not confined to members of the Rattus and Mus genera, for example, the pack rat and cotton mouse.

The best-known rat species are the black rat (Rattus rattus) and the brown rat (Rattus norvegicus). The group is generally known as the Old World rats or true rats, and originated in Asia. Rats are bigger than most Old World mice, which are their relatives, but seldom weigh over 500 grams (1.1 lb) in the wild.

  • See How Easily a Rat Can Wriggle Up Your Toilet

    A rat's ribs are hinged at the spine, enabling it to easily squeeze through the tightest spaces—like the pipes draining your toilet. And rats are great swimmers too; they can hold their breath for up to three minutes. See how quickly a rat can go from the city streets to your bathroom.

  • Rat Roundup! My trained mink cleaning up the park.

    My trained hunting mink helping me control the muskrat and brown rat population at the city park. The city was going to pay SOME ONE to kill them, and I'd MUCH rather it was me than someone else! I get the job done without any dangerous chemicals or traps, and the animals we catch go to feeding my mink, instead of going to waist :-) Poisons (what any other pest control guy would have used) would have left the rats writhing in pain for HOURS sometimes even DAYS before they finally died from internal bleeding. Not only that, but poison would likely kill many other animals, not just the rats. My mink kill the rats in less than a minute, and is MUCH more humane than the alternative!

Ebay or Etsy mostly! Q. Where do you buy your rats food? A. I buy science selective rat from Amazon or Ebay. I buy them lots of goodies from Rat Rations.com and they share our veg that we buy anyway. Q. How stinky are they? A. They can get a bit stinky if they need a good clean out, but having grown up with dogs and cats I think they can be equally smelly. Rats clean themselves constantly so you don't need to bathe them often. Q. Can they be litter trained? A. Yes! Some more successfully than others though. Our boys use their litter tray but there's also a few spots around the cage they still poop in. Q. Are they expensive pets to keep? Nope. At least I don't think so. A huge bag of litter lasts ages. Big bags of science selective rat lasts us a while too! Darwin's medicine is under £20. Louis castration was £70. Other things like cleaning products last a while and aren't too costly. If you have a chewer you might go through hammocks often, but again they're not THAT pricey. Q. Are they difficult to care for? A. Not particularly. They feel like a pretty low maintenance pet to me, but the cleaning can take quite a while. I do a quick clean every day just to keep the cage from getting too grubby too fast. Deep cleans take me over an hour (I think), though that could just be because I'm slow. ♥ Business Email Only: kiera.rose@nvc-networks.com End Screen Music: "Fuel to Fire" by Rani Leigh Lindquist: http://www.youtube.com/user/rahhxxx ♥ Plugs and pretty things // http://littledoestore.bigcartel.com

They reside in a huge multi-level mansion, though I have them out much of the time. Additional note: My rats are trained animal actors for media work and so it is crucial that they are able to perform outside and in foreign environments. As a wildlife enthusiast and a licensed wildlife rehabilitator, I am well aware of the various wildlife species that inhabit the area. Fortunately, rat-feeding birds (esp. raptors/birds of prey) are very scarce due to my area being an extremely poor food source; of course I still exercise caution and remain vigilant nonetheless. Never once have I witnessed any animal species, birds of prey or other, watching my rats or even being present when they are out. I would never, ever do anything that could potentially endanger my animals. They are priceless, dearly loved family members and their safety is of paramount importance. I LOVE my ratties! :)

Check out my business, Little Doe: http://littledoestore.bigcartel.com End Screen Music: "Fuel to Fire" by Rani Leigh Lindquist: http://www.youtube.com/user/rahhxxx Einstein & Darwin are both bucks (males), in this video they are almost 3 months old. They are not brothers, but are related in some roundabout way. Einstein is a week younger than Darwin. Darwin is the grey rat and Einstein is the black :) . If you leave vile comments on this video because you hate rats then you'll be blocked. Simple as that. If you don't like them then fair enough, but I won't put up with nasty comments about killing them or anything similarly awful, which I've had before unfortunately. I would just like to advise against ever buying an animal because you saw a video online and thought it looked cute. (This applies to all animals!) Yes, rats are adorable and wonderful pets! But please make sure you can give them what they need. Time, money, care, play, space, companionship and more. Make sure you understand what they will require for a good, healthy life. If you can't give an animal what it needs, do not buy them. Never buy just one rat. You need at least two. Before going to breeders I'd strongly advise searching for pet rats near you that may need new homes.

Innovative research conducted in Lausanne, Switzerland has shown that a combination of neurotransmitters and electrical stimulation can restore movement to the lower limbs of previously paralysed rats. But in order for this motion to be made voluntarily the rats must be motivated to walk. This motivation comes in the form of cheering, visual cues, and of course, chocolate.

Arlo security camera films the greatest rat trap ever made catching a rat. Even after killing dozens of vermin this trap is still going strong. Victor snap traps are the most reliable and reasonably priced method to control rodents. Better than poison or glue traps. Don't settle for anything less than Victor Professional traps. Filmed with the Arlo Security camera in total darkness. Amazing footage from this ground breaking surveillance system.

My trained hunting mink helping me control the muskrat and brown rat population at the city park. The city was going to pay SOME ONE to kill them, and I'd MUCH rather it was me than someone else! I get the job done without any dangerous chemicals or traps, and the animals we catch go to feeding my mink, instead of going to waist :-) Poisons (what any other pest control guy would have used) would have left the rats writhing in pain for HOURS sometimes even DAYS before they finally died from internal bleeding. Not only that, but poison would likely kill many other animals, not just the rats. My mink kill the rats in less than a minute, and is MUCH more humane than the alternative!

    See How Easily a Rat Can Wriggle Up Your Toilet

    A rat's ribs are hinged at the spine, enabling it to easily squeeze through the tightest spaces—like the pipes draining your toilet. And rats are great swimmers too; they can hold their breath for up to three minutes. See how quickly a rat can go from the city streets to your bathroom.
