Rat-a-Tat Cat

A game of suspense, strategy, anticipation and a little luck. The object of the game is to get rid of the high cards (rats) and go for the low cards (cats).

Sneak a peek, draw two, or swap cards for an added twist. Bonus super peek lets you spy on opponents’ cards.

Rat-a-Tat Cat is a fun numbers card game with cats – and a few rats!
