Rat owners and rodent owners?

Question

What would you do if you found a loose rat in your home?

I know my parents would kill it, but I'd feel bad... Is it true that if you're in a room with a bunch of rats, they can actually kill you and eat you?

Answer 1

It's best to humanly trap the rat and set it loose far from your house if you don't want to kill it... Don't attempt to touch it. I own pet rats but if it's a wild one it may carry disease... And no... I don't believe rats would kill and eat you. There'd have to be like thousands of them, at which  I don't think they'd make an attempt at killing you. I really love pet rats. They're the best of the rodents :)
