Rats make amazing pets! They thrive on either specially formulated rat kibble or a healthy mix of human foods like fruits, veggies, and grains. Super social and intelligent, they bond quickly with their humans and love riding on your shoulder. They're highly trainable, litter-box trainable, and content living in a surprisingly small, clean space. With a lifespan of two to five years, they’re the perfect low-commitment companion for anyone craving a clever, cuddly buddy.
