It depends on how you view rats.
1. If rats represent good luck or a beloved pet, it could represent grief or a loss of opportunity.
2. If you think of rats as icky and dirty, then an escaping rat could represent diverted danger. Rather than attack you or give you disease, the rats leave.
3. If you commonly use "rat" as a slur, it could mean that someone who caused you problems is leaving your life. Maybe someone who was betraying you has backed down. Perhaps you had it out with someone online who was being quite a troll and they are retreating like a coward. Online could fit since you use computer mice while online.
4. A fleeing rat could represent problems in your life that are difficult to fix. As you try to fix the problems, you lose the opportunity to do so, and you have to wait for the next opportunity to fix the problems in question. Perhaps you lost a lawsuit and are appealing the decision. So you have to wait until the appeal date to make another attempt to resolve the matter in a favorable manner.
The vermin represent multiple small persistent problems that you feel well-qualified to resolve. The dream expresses your expectation of success.
If the rat is running away from you, it's not playing anymore. It doesn't necessarily mean it's scared, but it is most certainly letting you know it is done playing for now.

The "big rat" represents someone you do not respect who has power over you in real life.
He doesn't like you. He thinks you sneak around a lot. He thinks you smell. He thinks you steal. He thinks your a nuisance to people. 5 possibilities. Basically, you're acting like a rat.
The dream suggests that the process of eliminating a nasty problem resulted in the destruction of whatever provided the solution. Perhaps an expensive remedy provided only a single use.
I've always considered it to mean you were running errands.
Isolated from all the other factors and emotions of the actual dream, there is nothing significant in dreaming about a rat. It might be nothing more than a random image drifting through your sleep, or it could represent a nasty person or something you dislike about yourself. Different sorts of dreams about a rat would have very different meanings.
All you can really know for certain from a dream is that somewhere you thought of it, or had a memory of it. A dream is simply your brain trying to make sense of random synaptic activity during REM sleep. Your waking thoughts and memories are often shuffled around during this process which is what makes for such buzzer happenings.

Cavia porcellus does mean little rat in Latin.
