No. Rats are rodents, not marsupials, so they do not have pouches.
no that do not
Chipmunks will do this.
I don't really know how much food they can put in their cheek pouches, but i do know that they can hold up to 20 pounds of food.
I know that hamsters can.
Hamsters can hoard food in their cheek pouches. That's why you see their cheeks so stuffed!
well, how they get food from one place to the other is that they stuff they` re food in their cheek pouches!
Cheek pouches - are present in some species of rodents (such as squirrels and chipmunks). They are simply colds of skin on the inside surface of the cheek area. They serve as a temporary storage area to allow the animal to gather more food than they could carry.
Platypuses do not hold much food in their cheek pouches. The cheek pouches are only used to store enough food for the platypus to grind (it does not chew as it has no teeth) as it floats on the surface between dives.
Hamsters have very large cheek pouches for storing food for later.
I think so.. my guinea pig seems to get really fat in her cheecks when she eats
A hamster has two cheek pouches inside the mouth in which to store food when out foraging. The pouches are emptied when back in the nest, and the food is stored at the back of the nest, for times when food is scarce.
If its cheek is growing, Its storing more food in its cheek pouches. You should talk to a vet to see if this is normal about your hamster. For more Information, visit: www.hamsterownerswebs.webs.com
Saving food on their cheek pouches is totally normal, you shouldn't mess with it.
