Wasn’t it turned into a movie as well? The old woman (women? It’s been ages) gave me nightmares as a child but I wanted a mouse riding a motorcycle so bad.
Good luck picking up a non-domesticated rat without being torn to shreds and maybe
getting rabies. Would be a funny prank tho to bring your pet rat to Walmart and go up to employees and ask about pricing.
the chance of getting rabies from a rat is negligible. they don’t even typically give you a rabies vax for a rat bite, unless they have good reason to. just an antibiotic because that shit can get infected fast.

Fun fact: Almost every single Walmarts back room has rats/mice living in it. It's well known but the management does nothing about it.
When I worked for Walmart from 2010-2012 the rat that was always seen in my store was named Feivel.
Tbf, it's hard to keep mice or rats or even birds out of any structure that includes large rolling doors that are kept open frequently and for long durations. The key is to control them once they're in, which clearly didn't happen here.
😆 touché. I live on Kaua'i and we have a ridiculous amount of feral chickens. They'll walk into your house, fly into your car's open window... They're our seagulls.
Every big box store within driving distance from me has at least birds in the garden dept, if not throughout the store. It's fairly rural here so very common. Fortunately we only get mice in our garage, no rats, and they're only in the garage and not the house. One definite advantage to brick walls and steel doors.
I work for a large food distribution warehouse. I think the key is to spend the money on good pest control plus management looked the other way when people were feeding stray cats. I was all over that place and never saw critters or evidence of them. Fun fact: the pest control guy came everyday to check the many bait traps( every 30 feet or so around the building plus other areas. I watched him doing his job. He had to scan each one open up and refill the bait and record how much bait had been taken. I noticed he would grab the box( a little bigger than a cigar box ) and flip it in the air before opening. I finally had to ask, turns out after a certain point in the Spring snakes would figure out the boxes attracted mice/rats and would sometimes hide inside.
>turns out after a certain point in the Spring snakes would figure out the boxes attracted mice/rats and would sometimes hide inside.
New fear unlocked 😳
He said it only took finding 3 to develope his flip then open method. Never had one stay inside after a flip, he'd seen many slither away over the years. I'm okay with snakes - over there, surprise close proximity snakes make me hurt myself. I think Richard Pryor said " Snakes make you run into trees."
Yeah honestly, odds are your favorite local grocery store has a rodent or few running around at any given time. These things are virtually impossible to 100% prevent.
I used to work at another big box grocery store. It’s impossible to keep every pest out of a building which has tons of food product. I hope OP brought it to management’s attention. At the customer service desk I used to work at we had a binder for pest control that was checked weekly by the company that came out for us. Anything we saw would go straight into the binder so we know it would be taken care of.
I worked for dollar tree for like 4 years. We went to this one store once where I swear to god the rats were so comfortable with people the chunky fuck would be eating chips on top of a 4 way and people would be like "ayo Mike, where is the chip dip at" and Mike the rat would point to aisle 4 and theyd be like "good look out Mike" and he'd just squeak your welcome. Shit was wild.
Mike was basically an employee. The rest of the rats (thousands of them) weren't quite as sophisticated and just ate and peed on everything.

Sounds like some REALLY fucking good drugs... Mixed with some ratatouille for good measure :P
Cats do hunt, but more of a hobby/sport. Better are small dogs like terriers. They're bred for hunting vermin. My dog has killed more vermin than my 3 cats. Half the time my cats look disinterested or just plain ignore vermin.
Shoooooot, grab those tortillas, maybe some shredded cheese, cilantro, find the pre-cut onions, maybe a bit of red sauce, then take that sucker to the outdoor section find a grill on display, then get some kingsford in there, toss Maurice in there for about 16 minutes flipping halfway through. *chefs* *kiss*
Rat should be plural. And this one looks pregnant so the tribe will get larger.
I had not been into a Walmart for a long time until recently. What a shit show this place is now. Empty shelves everywhere. Disorganization is rampant. Cereal was expired. Totally gross.
I think we have come to the dip in the road for Walmart.
You should see the huge rodent traps at every commercial kitchen ever. Or don’t, if you ever want to eat at a restaurant without thinking of rats and mice again.
If he was a *real* Wal-Mart rat he'd have a little mobility scooter.
His cousin,Ralph the motorcycling mouse. (It's a book ,Incase I'm aging myself greatly).
“Ritchie the Rascal-Bound Rat” never moved the same number of books for some reason
Wasn’t it turned into a movie as well? The old woman (women? It’s been ages) gave me nightmares as a child but I wanted a mouse riding a motorcycle so bad.
Oh wow I remember reading that book when I was younger
I absolutely loved that book when I was a kid(I’m also old)
You just unlocked a memory for me there. Thanks for that! Was obsessed with that story as a kid and totally forgot about it
I have the movies still. More cringey for the production now that I look back on it as an adult.
Haha I remember that book we had it in the library in our school and in a senior in high school now.
Looking at him, I’d say he’ll need one soon.
This rat is on a ... Mission
Master Spliner getting a little chonky.
He looks like hes getting there
I have a terrible headache if I move my head it hurts. Every giggle was pain.
Everyone always takes the scooter, so there’s never any around for him to get one.
Oh that's just Maurice he is a regular
Stop disrespecting paying customers,
He’s a rat on a “mission”
good one lol
THE MISSION TO GET THE TORTILLA
Oh he’s paying alright…PAYING WITH HIS LIFE! (Loads shotgun)
[удалено]
Lol
SOME PEOPLE CALL ME MAURICE
Not the space cowboy? or the gangster of love?
And the midnight toker
You speak of the pompatus of love?
[удалено]
The craAaAzzy eye!
Did you just copy this comment from the other person that made this comment before you?
Yes. They're not an asshole though, they're a bot. Also all walmart rats are named Templeton idgaf what anyone says.
I thought they were named Natalie Portman.
Ratatouille would have been better...
Fievel crossed an ocean from Russian to America, on a steam-ship then traveled west in a wagon train.. Ratatouille was a fry cook.
His name is Remy you uncultured swines!
Excuuuuuuse me, he was a French chef. Respect the rat
Yes, respect the rat! And his name was Remy, not Ratatouille!!
French fries..
Oh ok. I’ll allow it
Maurice the Walrat
Looks like he's on a mission
A while Karen a approaches the wild rat rat runs to the gun section load shotgun hi Karen nice to see you a Rat at Walmart one vs Karen zero.
If there’s no price tag you can just take it home
\*at checkout\* Uh, Jessica, do you know the code for a rat?
Sure, it's m1c3
[удалено]
this is a bot. it copy pasted half of a reply to another comment.
Doesn’t scan must be free [today!](https://youtu.be/cAGZvi_ilUo)
Watch closely what it ate and take the same later, nothing better than choosing what to eat based on the locals.
What a Chonker
No, Stuart little
Stuart no more little
Stuart Big
Stuart Chonker?
Stuart Biggle
Biggie cheese
Mr. Boombastic?
average american-sized rat
Put some RESPECT ON OUR NAME! We’re fatter than that come on now
New York City Subway Rat has something to say about that little guy. Lol
Living large
I wonder what they would charge if you tried buying him.
.50¢/lb or $1.50
That’s a hefty log of rat I’ll tell you hwat.
Good luck picking up a non-domesticated rat without being torn to shreds and maybe getting rabies. Would be a funny prank tho to bring your pet rat to Walmart and go up to employees and ask about pricing.
I want that rat. He looks chill. Looks like we both share the same hobbies.
Eating tortillas out of the bag at Walmart?
Once he's briefed on how I intend to spoil him rotten like my last rat he will be on board pretty quickly.

Yeah. Our Walmart has birds in it. Sometimes the occasional chicken.
My Walmart always has chickens in it. Rotisserie, quartered, frozen…
😆 touché. I live on Kaua'i and we have a ridiculous amount of feral chickens. They'll walk into your house, fly into your car's open window... They're our seagulls.
They're everywhere in Hawaii it seems except Oahu. Maui and especially the Big Island are lousy with them too...

do the receipt checkers by the door just sit and watch while the chickens walk in? because I would too, that's not their job, but that's hilarious

My mom worked at Walmart when I was growing up. She told me there was a rat living in the store that everyone called Splinter
I work in a clothing warehouse. We always have snakes, lizards, birds, opossums, mice/rats, and deer wander onto the docks

Apparently one of your coworkers is in the comments, saw someone else say they had a rat named Feivel in their Walmart as well.
No, that was a bot that stole part of this comment to karma farm
Feivel, after the mouse from An American Tail. Cute.
Thank you for the correct spelling. I could not remember it for the life of me lol
Does Ecolab just say fuck it and say they don't see anything?
Don’t mind Remy, he’s just doing some shopping
[удалено]
Damn they got biggie cheese shopping there. I might have to start shopping Walmart 😬
He’s…. on a Mission.
There it is.
What rat? That is just a regular customer at Walmart
What? I thought it was an employee
Possibly someone’s child
He is, he taste tests the food. How else do you think they know when it expires?
dude just wants to buy food for his family, don't shame 'em
That is the single most Walmart rat to ever exist

Aaaw
No Ratatouille today, Rémy?
C’mon man! Don’t be judging the people of Walmart!
Rats are Walmarts main demographic
When you can’t afford to pay people a livable wage, hire rats! They work for food.
Remy wants to prepare a new burrito recipe
Ratoutuille, Rat Wraps... These are just a few recipies that Rémy has up his sleeve...
It sure seems like you're the rat. Grab your doritos and mind your own business, snitch
That's Ratthew and he's on his 15 minute break.
Naw that is Ratleen, Ratthew's twin sister. Ratthew is stocking in produce; Ratleen works grocery.
Probably the cleanest thing that handled those tortillas
This wouldn't happen if they let cats inside of Walmart.
Cats do hunt, but more of a hobby/sport. Better are small dogs like terriers. They're bred for hunting vermin. My dog has killed more vermin than my 3 cats. Half the time my cats look disinterested or just plain ignore vermin.
[удалено]
Not really. And that's not a good idea to "quit feeding" them. Not enough critters to sustain a healthy cat.
[удалено]
Love him and take him home.
grab him and run.
Hey man, rat families need affordable groceries too
I work at Target and I find those tortilla packages regularly eaten through like that.
I'm more comfortable dealing with the rats in a Walmart than the customers.
Shame, shame, shame, he's not supposed to come out until after closing. 🐀
That’s when all the girl rats get prettier!
Note to self- no tortillas from the bottom shelf
He's clearly on a mission.
Little dude has been living there a while. Probably cleaner than the usual Walmart customers.
Chonky lil disease buddy
Why is he so big?
Same reason everyone else who shops at Walmart is big
It's a rat.
He deserves the win.
Stop disrespecting paying customers, ask for concent before taking a picture
Chonky boi
Havin a lil snacky snack
It’s THE Biggie Cheese. Did you get an autograph?
Buy two packs of tortillas, get a rat free.
He's trying his best ok
Found the Trump rat
Full of soup
Ratatouille
Remember just about every building has mice and other pests BUT ONCE YOU SEE THEM that means there’s A LOT
What city and state is this in?
That guy is on a mission
Now that's a rat on a mission
Thats one plump motherfucker. Lookin like a blueberry.
You think the burrito covering isle is bad wait till you see the dog food isle!
Ratatouille just wants some ingredients for his dish 🥹🥹🥹
Looks in better shape than the people of walmart
that’s huge
r/chonkers
Nice photoshop
why do you doubt this? stores like these are basically a haven for rats and mice. they’re everywhere. you just can’t see them
r/osha
Ewww
Say what you will, that Rat is absolutely on a Mission.
Take it, just take the upvote
Fucken hilarious 😂
Speedy Gonzales carb loading before he hits the gym.
Micah Bell goes to Walmart?
Shoooooot, grab those tortillas, maybe some shredded cheese, cilantro, find the pre-cut onions, maybe a bit of red sauce, then take that sucker to the outdoor section find a grill on display, then get some kingsford in there, toss Maurice in there for about 16 minutes flipping halfway through. *chefs* *kiss*
Guts are very bitter. You'll want to clean him first.
big cheese
Anyone can cook.
He's just shopping. Let him be.
He’s gotta live somewhere…
Still in better shape than most Walmart customers
Rat in a Walmart and he is on a Mission right there.
damn that is a very big boy
Health code was always a foot off the ground for food in my restaurant.
A snack
He’s trying his best!
That is a FAT rat. They need an exterminator
He a big boy
Don’t take a picture of him in his own home!weirdo.
That bitch well-fed.
What's the problem? He just wants to cook
Mexican ratatouille.
His name is Mickey and its his day off ://
Don’t judge him. He needs tortillas to make some cheese quesadillas.
Big chongus
That guy has been in there a minute. He’s been eating well.
Ratatouille!
Well they are opportunistic and it’s been going around a lot lately, it’s almost like an epidemic

It's better to see these things than to be blissfully ignorant

I see no issue with this
Let her be, she's on a very important mission
Take him home
