Rats are very intelligent and social animal. If you do get them please get at least a pair of the same sex.

Male are generally more cuddly than female. While female are more active and likes to play and explore.

They do produce quite a smell if not clean frequently and they don't have the longest life span (2-3 year ) is the max

Recently I've been looking into sugar glider. Seems like they are more work than rats especially in the beginning bonding stage but once they bond with you they will stick to you like glue. Have the rough lifespan of dogs and cats and can co exist well with other animal (again you need to work on the bonding) seems interesting def worth looking into
