Leafy Hideout for a Whiskery Rat

A plump little rat sniffs the ground, nose close to a pile of big floppy leaves. His ears stand tall and round, while his long, skinny tail curls behind him like a striped ribbon. Around his paws, leafy plants and wild grass stretch out, making the patchy ground feel wild and secret. He looks busy, as if he is searching for a tasty crumb or maybe a hidden treasure.

Nearby, sturdy pipes poke out from the side of a cozy building, standing watch as the rat tiptoes by. Bushy grass and leafy stalks grow wild in the yard, brushing up beside his fur. The scene feels calm and busy all at once—perfect for adding bright, splashy colors to every part of this curious backyard explorer.

Fun Fact!

Some rats can squeeze through an opening as small as a quarter (about 1 inch or 2.5 cm wide)!
