I had a 3 month old rat together with my hamster and the rat attacked my hamster, leaving my hamster with a bloody ear. it really depends on the rat's personality along with the hamster. My hamster was pretty lax about being with the rat but rats can be violent depending on how they were raised, and you can't know for sure how it was raised if you got it from a friend or a pet store.
hamsters are rodents because they are like rats and mice

Hamsters originate form Syria.
Rats communicate in various ways, including scent marking using urine. So female rats will attract males. Also, a good home for rats will attract more rats. Many people will say that if there are rats, there are seldom mice in the same place - which is true to a point - rats will eat mice.
