Is it a Rat or a Mouse

can any one tell the difference with a baby Rat and a mouse


It’s still cute though, vermin or not :thinking:

My granny used to say if it’s tail is longer than it’s body and head together, it’s a mouse, shorter, then it’s a rat!

Get the tape measure out….:rofl:

Ive caught it, going to take it a jolly ride .

Looks like a shrew

It’s a mouse. We trapped 5 in our garage in the winter …. They were after horse feed and carrots.
