If it is a wild rat (as in, a child found it behind a dumpster) DO NOT try to bring it home. Pet rats are also called "fancy rats" and are the domesticated version of rats. However, if it is a pet rat, and he/she is not very social, merely place your hand in the cage, and allow him to sniff and paw at it. Do not be afraid, as if it is a true fancy rat from a good breeder, it will not bite. When the rat (and you) feels comfy enough, at may try to get on your hand. Hold him near you at all times, and NEVER grab or hold by the tail, as it isn't strong enough to hold the rats weight and may break. If he poo's, that is okay, those are "fear poo's" as you are much bigger and scarier than he is. Be aware that rats can jump around one foot into the air, so don't think he cant escape from any lidless enclosure. You must not be afraid of the rat, or else it won't want to be near you, and you won't want it anymore. I suggest looking up more sources online, or in a pet store, for in depth consultation for caring for your pet rat.

Train pet rats to come when called?
I have had rats for a few years now, I absolutely love them. I've never had a rat who would come when called but I have had several who would come to me on their own and one who always knew when I was looking for her. If I walked into a room she would come right up to me, she was so sweet. I think your best bet is to try and get your rat to be that tame, so you never really have to call them. Make sure that you handle them daily, from the time they are just babies. It's also good to get a rat that has good bloodlines, because a lot of it is genetic. If you get a rat who's parents were spoiled and very tame, your baby will likely be the same way,
