Rats usually get a bad rap, but they’re highly social and intelligent, as well as super clean—grooming themselves often. Domestic rats even make awesome pets!! https://t.co/FefcAfxZeD

It is apparently #WorldRatDay today 🐀 #rat #rats

One more for #WorldRatDay : The Dance of the #Rats, c. 1690
Attributed to Ferdinand van Kessel (1648 – 1696)
Oil on canvas, 41.5 x 47 cm
Städel Museum, Frankfurt am Main (#1681) https://sammlung.staedelmuseum.de/en/work/the-dance-of-the-rats

“ABOUT THE WORK “When the cat’s away, the mice will play.” This proverb seems to be illustrated by the four comical rats dancing ring-a-ring-o’-roses. The brown shape in the background, which resembles the head of a fish or monster, helps to solve the puzzle. It is the fragment of a carved table base and reveals that the painting was cut out of a larger canvas. Scenes of animals parodying human behaviour are frequently encountered in Flemish painting. In that context, mice and rats are generally associated with vices such as drunkenness and gluttony.”

Better late than never?
It’s still #WorldRatDay west of here.

Some years later, Lil Marty looked up at #TillieAndTessie in space atop the RatManor.

The illustration by Drusilla Kehl, aka RatArtiste.

Marty the small agouti rattie standing up atop the RatManor, looking up at the illustration of the pair of albino rats in the space, which hangs on the other door in the rat room.

On this World Rat Day enjoy this very niche fan art of the new rat character from Duskbloods!! It was confirmed his role would be to guide players in the hub!

I think the Fire Keeper would love him dearly, and that she's a rat lover 🥺

Drawing of a giant rat with wings and a lady with long hair wearing dark robes and an eye mask both in front of a burning fire. The lady is smiling and the rat is eating a snack. Above this drawing is a close up on the rat, he has glowy runes on his head and wing, and a large round earring.

Here’s to #WorldRatDay❣️🌎

One of my fav photos of Tillie —she’s looking up at the awesome rat illustration by Drusilla Kehl that hangs on the door. I love this because it says “the world is in the little hands of rats.”

#TillieAndTessie

Tillie the albino rattie is standing up and leaning toward the framed illustration of the brown rat holding the earth like a beach ball in the space. There are other planets in the background of the illustration. Tillie is standing atop the RatManor which is not in the photo.

Happy #WorldRatDay "Ronin, an African giant pouched rat, has uncovered 109 landmines and 15 items of unexploded ordnance since 2021"

A blurry photo of a Champaign rat with their mouth open in surprise, or perhaps yawning 🤣

Our current mischief is composed of a mother (Holly) and her litter of 11. (8 females and 3 males) Holly had lost the tip of her tail at some point before we adopted her.
