there body's are like jelly so they squish through
Rats pretty much like to be pat anywhere,
Rats live anywhere humans don't go much,. Many are underground.
They have very thin fur so they don't get too hot and for being so small, they can fit through small places.
Rats are notorious for being able to survive and thrive just about anywhere. They can swim, climb, cling, shrink to fit through small spaces (but if they eat too much, they cannot get out..ha), live through seasonal changes (mostly because they can find warm places), and reproduce almost as fast as rabbits. They're really smart, people fear them and, I think, the main reason is because they can eat everything (including their own feces because they contain undigested products). They're omnivores.
Yes! But I think what you're referring to is how they can squeeze into tight areas like an octopus? Rats and mice have bones that are more "flexible" and can compress their rib cages to fit into small spaces. So if their little heads will fit through a space, so will their bodies. Yes they do have bones and when they die they leave behind a skeleton in their shape. yes...yes.Yes, I have four rats and you can tell just by petting them. I'm pretty sure all mammals have bones. If you don't have any rats they are awesome pets!!
Rats can live anywhere, including on boats

Yes, a rat can fit under a door if there is enough of a gap between the bottom of the door and the floor. Rats are agile and can squeeze through small spaces, so it's important to seal any gaps to prevent their entry into your home.
Periwinkle plants do not typically kill rats. While it may have certain properties that are repellant to rats, they are not a reliable method of rodent control. It is best to use proven methods such as traps or poison to effectively deal with rat infestations.
Rats live anywhere. They prefer dark places, which may be either moist or dry, such as cellars and basements, under houses, and in thick vegetation. Rats are native to all continents except for Antarctica, and there are many species of rats. It is interesting to note that, before European settlement, there were no black or brown rats (the most common varieties) in either Australia or New Zealand, but only native rats which are quite different to the general public's perception of rats.
It depends on the thickness of the metal. I have had rats chew through chicken wire and wire mesh screen. I have never, though, had a problem with them chewing through wire thicker than a coat hanger, or sheet metal.
