Feeding Your Pet Rat

 

It’s always good to share good food with your loved ones, including your pets. Now, if you have rats as a pet, sharing is not recommended. If you have been doing this as a routine for some time now, end it now because it won’t do you and your pets any good. Why?

Here are the basics you must know about feeding your rats:

●      Rats tend to eat without control. They just like to munch on and on and on. It is best to prepare a meal plan or schedule for them.

●      Rats enjoy fatty, salty snacks. But if you always give them these, they might gain too much weight. Control what they eat; give them variations.

●      Rats enjoy chewing a lot. So, try to give them a bone with a few types of meat left on it (avoid chicken bones; beef or pork is preferred).

●      Rats have a strong set of teeth. They can easily open nuts with a hard shell.
