It's pretty unusual for a rat to even get fat in the first place, as long as you give them a wheel and an interesting environment. I always let my rats run loose for most of the evening too, back when I kept them. You just open the door, they scatter, and when it's time to put them up, you shake a bag of peanuts and they all come running to get a peanut apiece and then back into their enclosure.
It was the early 2000's, so I don't have pictures, but my first husband says sometimes he'll be doing something and have a memory of seven rats, sitting in a semi-circle around me, patiently waiting to have their Bedtime Peanut distributed.

I am fairly sure there are quite a few very fat rats or mice out there in various laboratories, all it takes is a 60% fat diet, and at least hundreds if not thousands have been on reta for their obesity. Not so great for them once they finally lose their extra weight and get dissected. But probably better to try it first on them than humans.
