Why we celebrate World Rat Day?

4 April 2023 will mark the 20th anniversary of World Rat Day. This is a holiday dedicated to recognising the rat as a wonderful pet and companion animal for people of all ages.

All true pet rat fans know that these cute animals deserve more recognition and admiration. The image of pets suffers from ignorance and ill-considered prejudice. Often people only pay attention to an animal’s appearance and draw hasty conclusions about it. They are perplexed if someone suddenly says that a rat is a good pet. This is because they associate it with the wild rat, which gnaws at wires, carries various diseases and is a pest to humans. World Rat Day will help people look at their pets in a new way.

What Do People Do?

On this day, rat owners gather at a particular place to talk about their pets, as these owners definitely have a lot to discuss. They give their pets treats and talk about them on social media. Some buy rats from pet shops or visit the vet. By the way, don’t forget to congratulate your veterinarian on World Veterinary Day at the end of the month.

How to Celebrate World Rat Day?

World Rat Day is celebrated around the world on 4 April every year. This day is good for organising themed parties or gatherings. Together with friends and family, you can watch a touching cartoon starring Remy the Ratatouille. Thus, World Rat Day is destined to be a day when many people will realise that the domestic rat is a wonderful pet that has all the qualities needed to become a part of the family. This will be possible thanks to the special efforts made by the participants of this event.

Interesting facts about rats

  • Wild rats are sometimes beneficial to humans. Miners (whose work involves a risk to their lives) have been known to notice that, before a cave-in, rats quickly run away and hide somewhere. This observation made it possible to predict that a cave-in was imminent.
  • Rats are used to search for drugs and explosives. Rats have been known to be used for mine clearance.
  • If a rat is tickled, it will laugh.
