n their worst days rats can be so stubborn and adamant at having their way. They can be terribly power hungry, malicious and staggeringly Machiavellian. Celebrated for their spunk and determination, rats make for a formidable adversary. Rats do not tolerate defeat; they crave power and domination. People around the rat couldn’t help but feel both awed and agitated at the rat’s unabashed, audacious and sheer ruthlessness in the pursuit of their ambition.

They never betray what’s inside. To be an effective manipulator, one must always be in control — and that is something a rat has mastered. Despite the volatile tempers rats may seem cool as cucumber. Acting on impulse, coupled with an extremely aggressive behavior, rats can exact revenge on those who hinder them without second thought. They can be so sadistic that they revel at the suffering of their enemies.
