Rat Rattus
تعريف
Rattus is a genus; the animal that fills laboratories and pet homes is the Norway rat, Rattus norvegicus, and the figures here are its. It earned its place in research through moderate size, prolific breeding, an omnivore's tolerance of varied diets and a tractable temperament, backed by a large body of existing data and strains bred for specific characteristics. Adults weigh 300 to 650 g, females smaller than males, with a body of 23 to 28 cm and a tail nearly as long. Gestation is 21 to 23 days, litters run eight to eighteen, weaning is at three weeks and females breed from six to twelve weeks; lifespan is short, 1.5 to about 3.8 years. Two conditions define the pet rat's clinical picture. Mycoplasma pulmonis produces chronic respiratory disease: sneezing, snorting and chattering, progressing to suppurative rhinitis, otitis and pneumonia with bronchiectasis and dense lymphoid cuffs around the airways. Mammary fibroadenoma is the commonest spontaneous mammary tumour, benign but collagen-rich, locally invasive and difficult to excise completely.
