Awe Rats!

Hello fellow cardsmiths and welcome to my 18th contest, Awe Rats!

Real quick back story: One of the first real 'good' decks I owned when I first started playing magic was a mono black Rat tribal deck. It was an aggressive beat down deck in black. Kind of rare to find these days, even when I started to play it was a kitchen table 60 card deck just to play with friends. But man did I have good times with that deck. Which is what lead me to the creation of this contest!

Once upon a time in the Magic the Gathering Universe, Rats where one of the top loved creatures in the game to play. There was awesome cards in the game for rats. Rats such as:

And there was also a couple of good supportive creatures as well:

What I want to see from you guys is cards that relate to Rats in any way shape or form. Be creative! They don't necessarily have to be the normal colors for Rats. If you want to, you can make an off color Rat. Just explain why it is the color(s) (or if it's colorless, whatever). They can be made in any way shape or form. It can be tribal instants or tribal sorceries, or tribal enchantments or tribal artifacts, etc. etc. whatever you can think of, go for it! Custom mechanics would be extra cool to see here as well. Just as long as it has Rats in the rules text or subtype in some way, it is permitted!

Here is a couple of examples I have come up with to get your creative juices flowing:
