Interesting, too bad catfolk are doing so bad in the poll, it seems the Puss in boots-build with weapon focus rapier is not bound to happenIf we stick to 3.x, definitely catfolk. They appeared in Races of the Wild and the Race of X series (Races of the Wild, Races of Destiny, Races of Stone and Races of the Dragon) is one of the most widespread series of accessory handbooks. For example, goliaths are in Races of Stone and dragonborns are in Races of the Dragon.Which one is the most "legitimate" and deeply rooted D&D/Pathfinder race? Ratfolk?
To find some semblance of rat-like race, you need to rely on Oriental Adventures, a fairly obscure 3.0 handbook (later adapted to 3.5), that has the Nezumi race. There are various rat-like creatures among monsters and most of them are playable races, but they were intended almost exclusively as monsters.
Kitsune are nowhere to be found, because they are godawful abominations and should burn amidst the flames of Hell.
On another note, hmmmm: "Humans are genomically more like rats than cats,a comparison of sequence from 12 vertebrate species published in today's Nature indicates."
