Does the Norwegian rat count as having been domesticated?

  Yes, people keep them as pets, play with them, etc. There are also large wild populations.

    Not all rats are good at being pets. If they were, the bushy tailed wood rat would be in every pet store

      I can't argue with that, but the question was about Norwegian rats. The bushy-tailed wood rat isn't even in the same taxonomic family. It's just called a rat.
