Rufus the Naked Mole Rat: Rufus, Ron’s pet, was inspired by actual studies of naked mole rats and their unique, highly social behaviors. 
Rufus speaks in small "phrases" and is voiced by Nancy Cartwright, the same actress who voices Bart Simpson!

It's so cool that his character was based on real mole rat behaviors—gives him a quirky, authentic edge. And finding out he’s voiced by Nancy Cartwright? Mind blown! It’s amazing how she brings so many iconic characters to life. Rufus definitely deserves some extra appreciation!
The fact that he’s based on real-life naked mole rats adds an awesome layer of depth.
