A rat is any of about 56 different species of small, nearly omnivorous rodents belonging to the genus Rattus. The most well-known species are the Black Rat Rattus rattus and the Brown Rat Rattus norvegicus. The group is generally known as the old world rats or true rats, and originated in Asia.

Rats are bigger than their relatives the mice, but seldom weigh over 500 grams in the wild. The common term rat is also used in the names of other small mammals which are not true rats. Examples include the North American pack rats, a number of species loosely called kangaroo rats, and a number of others. Other rats such as the Bandicoot rat Bandicota bengalensis are murine rodents related to the true rats, but are not members of the genus Rattus. The widely distributed and problematic commensal species of rats represent a minority in this diverse genus. Many species of rats are island endemics and some have become endangered due to habitat loss or competition with brown, black, or Polynesian rats.

The rat-catcher is a profession centered around catching rats as a form of pest control.

While no longer a profession in developed countries there are still rat-catchers in India and other developing countries.

Keeping the rat population under control was practiced in Europe to prevent the spread of diseases to man, most notoriously the Black Plague and to prevent damage to food supplies.
