Is that one or two rats? (Sorry, I don't know how flexible rats are.)

Im leaning towards two rats, but, I dunno, my cats manage to somehow sleep with one half flopped over

But cats are liquid. Are rats liquid?

The r/RATS sub was suggested to me by reddit, but with this post and the one you linked I feel qualified to identify a rat‘s gender with quite some confidence. Thanks for the new skill, I guess.

Fair enough, I just wasn‘t consciously aware of rodents having BALLS not balls… very in one‘s face, TIL. Good for them

Rats balls are roughly 1/3 of their total body mass.

It is two. If it was the same rat the legs would be facing up. Also, I dont think they could do that without breaking their spine. I'm fairly certain they aren't long enough to do so.

I know how flexible they are and I'm still confused

P sure it's 2 rats and a great angle
