Review: Works - Replaced my Rat 3 with this one. works great for smaller size hands.
Review: Mad Cats R.A.T. 2+ - Ok, first off, this thing is sooooooo cute!!! I love it!!! Much smaller than the R.A.T. 8+. My first R.A.T.. Took me all of about 4 seconds to get use to the crazy cool shape. The RGB on the palm rest is very eye catching against the black body. Button clicks are crisp, clean, and accurate. As for comfort - this one is definitely made for us girls. Small an cute 😍 The tracking on this is amazing for such low dpi. It works great. I've seen a lot of reviews saying how cheap they feel. IT'S PLASTIC!!! Everything made of plastic feels cheap. I work in automotive manufacturing, and have pretty much my whole life. Even automotive plastic feels cheap. This is a great low budget mouse. The attention to detail on such a low grade mouse is amazing. Clean lines. No edges that could cut you. Even the white stripes on the thumb and pinky grip are plastic so no paint wearing off. Details. This is a great product.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: what is the minimum length it can be adjusted to?**
A: I use the fingertip grip. So to get the minimum length, I completely remove the rear end of the mouse which gives a length of 4" for the body (there is one small screw sticking out, you could cut it off if you needed, but then you couldn't go back or return it).

**Q: Es compatible con Macro**
A: Es compatible, las versiones mas nuevas traen total compatibilidad con windows 10

**Q: can the rgbs be customized?**
A: http://www.madcatz.com/index.php?action=downloads&cid=14

**Q: Is it normal that it arrived without packaging, just in plastic in a shipping box? This is a verified product?**
A: No. Mine came in packaging within a box. Clearly brand new.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pretty Comfortable
*by K***. on March 22, 2023*

It is good enough to use throughout the day for work, however the back end doesn't adjust very well. It also is slightly high making the buttons harder to use for gaming, so i switch back to my G502 for that. Otherwise, it has enough functions and is comfortable enough to use all day in programs like CAD and Photoshop.
