18+ Adorable Rat Pics Proving That They Can Be The Cutest Pets Ever
To celebrate World Rat Day, we've decided to show you that pet rats can be the cutest animals ever. Just look at that rat snuggling the tiny teddy bear!
Sadly, pet rats don't get as much love as they deserve. They are often mistaken as gross and filthy animals, in part due to their historic role in spreading the plague. Domestic rats, however, groom themselves just as much as cats do. Rats are also incredible at learning tricks quickly. For example, they can recognize their own names, roll over or play catch just like dogs. They are also very affectionate with other rats and their favorite humans, too!
As a rat owner myself, I know for certain that these pets are just as smart as they are cute. In fact, they're definitely my favorite pet animal in the world!
The world could always use more cute pet rat photos, so don't hesitate to submit them to our list. Don't forget vote for your favorite cute rat pictures as well!

Absolutely adorable. Rats make wonderful pets!
Rats are seriously the best rodent pets a person can have.
So cute. Never had a pet rat but they look fun. The oldies in this nursing home will love them. Thanks for showing them with us.
They are by far my favorite. I've had dogs and cats for 45 years. Now, ratties are my passion!
