what are tricks you can teach a rat?
gpt
In the wild, rodents communicate by smell.  You could teach a rat to fetch you a spoon from the kitchen.  A better trick would be to teach it to fetch a specific item, like a raisin.

Okay, the spoon thing has to be a joke but the other one might be possible.
Most rats have excellent memories, and can be taught some tricks quickly.
We can certainly teach it to fetch objects with rewards, although it might take some time.  Or you could use a clicker instead of a verbal reward.  One could also teach the rat to play a simple trick game.  For example, you could place food on the floor in a way that’s difficult to see, and the rat will have to stand up on its hind legs to see it.  Then you could reward it with a tidbit when it does that.  As it gets better, you could make the location harder to see.  Can you think of a few other tricks you’d like to teach?
