'''Hell-Rats''' are found in [[Evil Dave]]'s basement in [[Edgeville]] and can only be accessed after starting [[Recipe for Disaster#Freeing the Council members|the Evil Dave subquest]] in [[Recipe for Disaster]]. Hell-rats are caught by having your cat chase and catch them, just like normal rats. Catching hell-rats will earn credit toward the [[Cat training medal]]. However, Hell-Rats cannot go on a [[Rat pole]]. After a cat or kitten manages to kill a hell-rat, it will become a [[hellcat]] or hell-kitten. The cat may be changed back to normal by feeding it [[Bucket of milk|milk]] or by talking to Dave's mother. It has also been claimed that a kitten or cat grows faster while catching hell-rats, however this has been recently tested and is now confirmed to be untrue.

When successfully caught, the rats always drop [[ashes]] and a random spice. The spice will have 1 to 4 doses and may be [[Red spice|red]], [[Yellow spice|yellow]], [[Orange spice|orange]], or [[Brown spice|brown]]. These spices may be mixed with [[stew]]s to create [[Spicy stew]]s.

During the quest, [[Evil Dave]] claims that he is trying to raise a demon army and had tried to start off small with imps. However, Evil Dave ended up with hell-rats, which were supposed to be the lowest form of [[demon]]s.

Note: A full grown cat has a much higher chance of success at killing hell-rats versus a kitten.
==Trivia==
*Hell-rats used to have a red glow under them around the time this quest was first released, now they do not glow anymore.
*Unlike other demon creatures, these did not get an ash update. When any other demon is killed you get ashes that you can spread for prayer experience while these only drop normal ashes.
*Hell-rats used to be put on a [[Rat pole]] after being caught and would appear as regular rats. However, after an update this was changed, now a message in the text box claims that the Hell-rats are too hot.
*They tend to drop orange spices less than other spices.
