No! Rats are very sociable animals and need there cages spot cleaned at least once a day. You should never leave a rat in a cage by itself for too long. They thrive on the company they receive from their owners and other pets. They could become ill from worrying about where you've gone, or even could catch something from their cage not being cleaned.
