Rats are seriously under-rat-ed. People find them dirty, scary, or even a little bit spooky. But the truth is that it turns out that rats can be cuddly, loving, wonderful pets, and pretty darn heckin' cute too. That's right, deep down, rats are secretly squeak-hearts full of awwdorable energy, they can even be downright heroic, or surprising acrobatic if you give them the shot.

For example, when a rat stole a cat's GPS Collar, and sent his owner on a wild chase, hilarity ensued. Seems like this cuddly boy was just tired of the rat race! But we've rounded up the cutest rats of October so that you can fully enjoy spooky season by awwing at some uuber cuddle rats. It's nothing rat-ical, but they are pretty stinkin' cute! Take a look:
