Should the parents have known rats were around?

I find it hard to believe that the baby wasn't screaming in pain as the rat attacked her.

"I find it hard to believe that the baby wasn't screaming in pain as the rat attacked her."

The baby was on a heart & lung monitor.

I presume (from experience) that the baby was premature and too weak to scream at any volume.

I would also presume that the parents were physically and mentally exhausted from caring for a premature infant (feedings every hour or so; depends) that you could shoot a gun off in the room and they would sleep through it.

Was thinking the same thing. How out of it were these "parents"?
