Eomaia is a small climbing mammal from the Cretaceous period. It is generally assumed it was nocturnal given that the cretaceous period held the biggest dinosaurs ever to walk the earth.

The animal appears to be specialized for climbing, and it is hypothesized that this ability allowed placentals (and marsupials, which also descend from climbers), to outcompete the numerous subclasses of extinct mammals (only three sub-classes survive today: placentals; marsupials, bubble shooter like kangaroos etc; and monotremes like the duck billed platypus - but the Cretaceous was a melting pot of mammalian sub-classes most of which do not survive to today).

I don't like this picture because I'm very scared of rats. I hope I won't see any pictures of it. slither io
