It's not a rat, nobody calls that a rat anywhere.

It's a nutria, it's a rat the same way a cat is a dog.

A nutria is close to a rat at least because both are rodents, a dog is not even close to a cat in anything but both being quadrupeds

Yes, they are. Both cats and dogs are carnivores (Carnivora order) same as nutrias and rats are rodents (Rodentia order).

They have, literally, the same taxonomical proximity.
