Rats are the size of cats! Although New York City has a large rat population, some rats are quite large, but not the size of cats! Although the rat population in NYC is plentiful, rat populations thrive with their access to food, lack of funds to control the population and climate changes.
New York City receives complaints from residents all over New York. Last week, a hotel supervisor was forced to drop her pants in the middle of a full midtown subway car when a brazen rat darted up her trouser leg according to the NY Daily News. MTA conducted additional inspections after the most recent vermin incident, and states they routinely clean subway cars, platforms and track areas of debris that may attract rodents. Officials suggest rider refrain from eating on subways and to properly depose of trash.
