I've always wondered about that. The treatment of the rats in Rats is appaling but the bbfc have never cut it, even though it's been confirmed by the cast and crew that the rats were deliberately harmed during the shoot. (apparently some of them complained but no one cared)
I don't think the shot in CA was intentional, I think the rat just got caught by the flames as it was running around.
The rat burning sequence in Wild Beasts is disgusting.
