Rate that Rodent

[Cooler running]

Thread is simple. 2 kinds of posters, Rodents and Raters. If you own, keep or otherwise have encountered a rodent which you have photographed, feel free to post it. Please don't post images of Rodents taken either professionally or haphazardly by others.

If you're not the rodenting type, feel free to rate that rodent. Provide feedback, critique or general camaraderie to those who have bravely exposed these glorious Glires for judgment.

I'll start. Here's my Gerbil, Valentina:



She has a Gerbil sister who will, for the time being remain to be seen.

The first thought that flittered through my head is that she's doing her impression of a Tyrannosaurus rex. "I am fierce, rawr!"

Well she's just lovely. We'll give her a 9/10

 

[robfosters]

Very cute. 9/10 also. She looks rather portly though. Too many nuts.

What is happening here!? It's a rat 1/10

They'll be flattered I'm sure, I would give her a treat for it, except...

She looks rather portly though. Too many nuts.

Unfortunately so, I've been saying she's going on a diet. I'm going to stick to it this time, they're just really good at begging.

i'll give it a good 8/10, it's not possible for any non-hamster to rate above a 9.

my cat however rates it at a solid 10/10 would snack.

You’re no David Attenborough are you?

Guess this counts as an encounter. Present from my dog.

I walked past a bin the other night that had a rat trapped inside, didn't open the lid and try to take a photo though

hope it died

 

[alindl]

Just me that expected to see a picture of something from Logitech here?

That's just horrible...

Green edging on white trainers!

I had that once with a bin of chicken food.
I put the jack Russell in with it.

I showed my cat... she said "not bad.... for a dog"

I have lots of sewer survey videos featuring rats. Given that I got these while at work, is that too professional?

 

[Vinno]

I like the first picture. The other 2 not so much

This thread derailed quickly!

@Haggisman

Put your huge hairy rat away! It's too early!

I used to have pet rats many many years ago. They were very friendly, intelligent and clean. They made great pets despite the stigma.

This is the only photo I can find, sorry about the feet. This one was called Gretel:
