Next year is the year of the rat.
I am interested in simple but effective model of a rat, preferably not more than 20 steps. All four legs are not mandatory, crouching position preferred. My problem is I cannot recall where to get them.
Can anyone recall where I can get them?
e.g. which book and author of the book? anywhere I can get from the internet (posted by their creators)?

These two are pretty simple...

or, more complex
Rat by Eric Joisel (I'm sure that you're already know this model)

Yes, I am aware of the Joisel's rat but I feel it is not suitable for my needs.
The other two, thanks, I will try it out.
Currently I am making origami models related to Christmas with angels my favourite theme for my colleagues but I am about to move on to something else.

I highly recommend Joisel's rat it is one of my favorite models to fold because he is so cute. He is more complex so i recommend going to happyfolding.com and there is a video on how to fold him that is very well done and should not take more that 30 min to do him if you watch it

Totally agree, this has become my new favourite. Its a nice blend of regular creasing and wet folding to bring it to life. I've given a few away as presents, and people really take to it. All I need now is a nice piece of cheese and a cat, and I'll be more than happy.

1) White faced mouse - The complete book of Origami by Robert Lang (10 steps)
2) Mouse - Origami Zoo by Robert Lang and Stephen Weiss (37 steps)
3)Mouse - Origami Omnibus by Kunihiko Kasahara ( 23 steps)
The first is fairly simple and has no legs.
