If you live in NYC, you'll most likely encounter Rattus norvegicus, also known as the “Norway rat”, “brown rat”, “street rat”, or “sewer rat”.  Even if you find the real thing creepy, this roly-poly Rat puppet will win you over. With soft fur, expressive eyes and a little twitchy nose and tail, he can be shy or bold, cautious or curious. With his detachable "Pack" he can collect to his heart's content.
