Template:Infoboxbestiary2Rats are just medium-sized, long-tailed rodents living in inhabited areas such as capitals Novigrad and Vizima. Before the domesticating of cats their existence had been a great problem to human societies, most often being solved by hiring a rat-catcher playing on musical instrument.[1]
Large, savage rats living in the wilderness are called skrekks. Mutated forms of the species are pseudorats[2], and the cursed people who are able to take the form of half-human, half-rat are wererats[3][4].
Also when Catriona Plague breaked out, the first to go were the cats and dogs, then the rats and finally the people. but this fact is known for small number of humans so there is no deratisation or something like that.
