If you look into it, there are 2 kinds of rats in the US, the Norwegian rat, which is the predominant one. It's fat and typically lives in sewers and eats garbage and and is your stereotypical rat. There is another breed, which lives in the southern parts of the country near the coasts. They are all thru FLorida. One of its names is Roof Rat. They are slight built, and basically have the eating and nesting habits of squirrels. They also have the agility of a squirrell.
If I were you Gracie, and you suspect something is in your attic, I'd get a pro in to see if anything is there.
