Best Answer

Common Black(Rattus Rattus) or Brown(Rattus norvegicus)rat, not really.

Largest size would be under 1.5lb

But it could maul the poor cat quite badly before losing.

Now the BIG rats: we have Greater Cane Rat (Thryonomys swinderianus) down here. Biggest I've encountered was 19" body length(not tail!) , 22lb weight.

That's plenty big enough to kill a small dog, much less a poor kitty.

Three licks would not kill your cat if they are small licks, if it ate too much then it may die yes, if it did eat alot then you should take it to a vet. Otherwise I do not think that three licks would kill your cat no.
