You may want to try a set of really long tongs and just use them to hold the rat's tail while the rat is on the tub floor right in front of her, so it can't run away.

I would not attempt mice as they are even more nimble than rats are.

Ohhh...you know what? That didn't even occur to me but now that you mention it I feel pretty confident that's the issue. I'm going to try holding onto the rat with some tongs I guess. Not crazy about the idea though. Meanwhile attempting to gwt in touch with the breeder still as he had her for the first two years and so it seems he was doing something I'm not apparently
