I'll be your friend.But first you have to answer a question:
If the Death of Rats rides a terrier, what do you ride? A grasshopper?

but when heand the Death of Fleas were "born" in Reaper Man, Death said something like "Well, you can't ride a cat. How about a terrier?"
Quoth is his own self; he's not the DoR's steed.
/edit: found it:
"NO. YOU CAN'T RIDE A CAT. WHO EVER HEARD OF THE DEATH OF RATS RIDING A CAT? THE DEATH OF RATS WOULD RIDE SOME KIND OF DOG. DON'T ASK ME, I DON'T KNOW. SOME KIND OF TERRIER, MAYBE. RIGHT, AND THE DEATH OF FLEAS CAN RIDE IT TOO. THAT WAY YOU KILL TWO BIRDS WITH ONE STONE. METAPHORICALLY."

Death has changed over the years.He was very different in Colour of Magic than he is now. Maybe the Death of Rats had a falling-out with that terrier after Reaper Man.

Yeahbut the Death of Rats doesn't actually ride on a terrier, but he does get a lift from Quoth occasionally.
