The rat was presented essentially in-character as a gift from The Joker to Harley Quinn, as Leto was experimenting with method acting during production — at least as much as one can when the character is a mass murderer.
“The rat is living with us in Toronto and he, and his massive ballsack, provide the house with great cheer and joy!,” del Toro revealed back in June.

It feels good to be bad…Assemble a team of the world’s most dangerous, incarcerated Super Villains, provide them with the most powerful arsenal at the government’s disposal, and send them off on a mission to defeat an enigmatic, insuperable entity. U.S. intelligence officer Amanda Waller has determined only a secretly convened group of disparate, despicable individuals with next to nothing to lose will do. However, once they realize they weren’t picked to succeed but chosen for their patent culpability when they inevitably fail, will the Suicide Squad resolve to die trying, or decide it’s every man for himself?
