Oga do u know what a shrew is go and do reseaech on shrew its a rat with long snout that has this body smell that makes a squeaking sound they prey on other rats when food is scarce
This is the only useful info. It is shrew, their metabolism is so high that they must feed every four hours or die. But shrews must times only extract only the liquid contents of their pree. Oga OP it is more likely to be shrew that means you're not directly endangered but still do further research.

It's a cat, only Felis domesticus eats rodents like that. Check your ceiling or check round for the slightest accessible space. There's no way that is not a Felis attack

I know this isn't the right section. But I don't know the right one and so I opted to post here since it seems to have a lot of traffic.

Yesterday, I returned to my room to find a rat dead in the middle of it. Ordinarily, I wouldn't be bothered. But this rat has clearly been bitten (pictures will be displayed below). I called a neighbour and we examined it. We were arguing if a snake could have done it, and if yes, why it didn't swallow it. In any case, we decided to leave it where it was to see if whatever killed it would return for it. I went to sleep at a friend's.

We returned this morning to find the dead rat gone. So, I called others to join me and we ransacked every nook and cranny of the room. We couldn't find anything threatening. But we did find another rat killed in much the same manner as the first (second picture).

It irks that I can't find what did this. I can't sleep in the room as it is. So please, experts in the house, help me to identify what it could be and what can be done.

Mods please help move to front page.

Don't stress yourself brother the rat was killed by "Aśirin" that rat with pointed nose(Roof rat) . Similar thing happened at my place of work.

I saw that small grass beside our office shaking vigorously in the night and when I move closer I saw asirin- Roof rat holding scorpion tight with it pointed nose, I was scared I was even thinking that it is other way round. Then not long enough after dragging it to another location I found the scorpion dead already but the asirin (roof rat) is gone.

I quickly called our guard attention to it, when he saw it he said it is asirin and before day break it will come back and pick it up to eat. To my surprise at the day break I couldn't fine anything there again. So relax it handwork of those pointed nose rat, and they hardly harm human being.

You have a ceramic floor finishing...
I strongly suspect a carnivorous reptile (like snake).
Get a furniture maker to open the upholstery of your furniture... Snakes hide in chairs.
Also check the kitchen cabinet if you have it...
Good luck

If your phone has enough space, charge it full, place a dead rat somewere and position your phone camera there and leave it overnight, you will see everything, make sure to put a lamp or something for the camera to see.

I said he is not directly endangered not that he's not endangered. Let me explain further, if they were to be snakes, I would say he could be directly endangered since if it is shrew, then, he doesn't need to panic or start running Helter skelter. Most times shrews travel several kilometers just to feed and carry on. 'Directly' and 'indirectly'

The mistake you made was that you should have placed a camera (Wireless cam or at least a motion activated recorder to monitor that rat. You would have been able to tell whatever came in by reviewing the videos the following day.

Now that the rat has disappeared, it is indeed worrisome to not be able to decipher what took it away from there.

And I don't wanna belive another rat could have done all that. Perhaps it's a cat and cats do have a way of crawling thru ceilings or small holes in walls much like rats do.
