I prefer rats myself but the only difference is that mice are smaller than rats. Other than that difference they are exactly alike.

Rats are more social and interactive. They also eat more but smell less. Average lifespan in captivity 3-5 years. Note that rats are very susceptible to cancer.

Mice are smaller and don't like being held as much. They also smell more but you don't have to clean their cages as often and have less needs. Average lifespan in captivity 1-3 years.

A mouse can run about 16 miles per hour. They could run much faster than that, but this depends on their overall size.

Rats are much larger than mice and have similar bodies. This would help a rat cover more ground in the same amount of time.

I spent all day testing this theory. I had a lab coat on and everything. The squirrels allways seem to win but only by little bit.

Mice run faster than rats because rats are bigger and mice are smaller and more agile.
