Wikipedia article

This article is about an older version of DF.
A small, intelligent vermin with a long naked tail.
Admired for its friendliness.

Rats are a type of vermin found in any area that isn't freezing. They like to consume your fortress's food, bones, and shells, and may inspire unhappy thoughts in any dwarves that encounter them. They can be tamed as pets. They sometimes appear in large swarms. They are automatically hunted by cats.

Although rats are a hateable vermin, in the preferences of some dwarves you can read that they like rats for their "friendliness", "playfulness", "curiosity", or "intelligence".
