Yes rats are able to eat any kind of nut, but like humans, rats should not eat many of them because the salt intake is too much for their tiny bodies. A human is only supposed to have a certain amount of salt in their diet, they should have no more then three nuts a day. The more nuts, the more salt. To much salt in a rats diet can cause internal problems and a shorter life span.
