Analyze

Rat

>analyze rat
>
You analyze your sewer rat and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions, but the creator has stated that "The item has restrictions on changing the noun."

The creator has also provided the following information:

You could probably get a streaked sewer rat groomed by a special groomer, but groomers are not miracle workers.
It will likely still look dirty or grimy, and would probably bite off your hand if you tried putting silly hats or bows on it.

You could probably get it to be less loud by THUMPing it, or you could make it more excited by POKEing it.
If you find the sewer rat is becoming too annoying, confine it to a designated rat sack.

You can tell that the rat is as light as it can get.

Container

>analyze sack
>
You analyze your burlap sack and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions, but the creator has stated that "The item type should not change."

The creator has also provided the following information:
This burlap sack is designed to hold a dirty pet rodent.
This item can be freely altered as long as it remains some kind of small belt-worn pouch or container.

You can tell that the sack is as light as it can get and that its pockets could not possibly get any deeper.
