Notes:
This pet is chosen among three vanity pets as a reward after completing a chain of Children's Week quests. These quests may be accessed by characters level 10+. See the Guide to Children's Week for a detailed walkthrough of this chain. Other rewards for the final quest include Mr. Wiggles and Speedy. Collecting all three pets on the same character is possible (over the course of three years) since the quests are repeatable each year.

Breanni Says:

I pity Whiskers the rat. Everyone always picks Speedy or Mr. Wiggles. No one ever goes for Whiskers. Hmmm… *ponders* Whiskers always gets the shaft and the alley near the Stormwind auction house is constantly littered with white rat carcasses. Do people who play Warcraft just hate white rats? I should fund a study…

Whiskers is one of the most active non-combat pets. He's always wandering around a little, standing up and sniffing, and doing a backflip, missing the landing, and playing dead. Plus, he looks hilarious chasing after druids in kitty form.

In addition to the perversity of having a rat chase my kitty form druid around, I also used him as another "Emergency Food Supply". But the real reason I chose him? Annoying the hell outta tards that would always scare me silly by attacking every damn rat they saw in dungeons. I would see spells go off and think someone pulled mobs. This was my payback, a rat that cant be killed!

Whiskers was my very first WoW pet, I had chosen him because at the time I was owned by two real-life pet rats and wanted a similar companion ingame. Would love to see more pet rat models in the future with hooded or spotted markings similar to those of real rat pets, in the meantime this little guy still remains one of my absolute favorites!

Unlike many of the non-combat pets, if you take Whiskers out when in a cold environment, you can see his breath.
