yes rats can hibernate just like hamesrters or sorts ------ but only under the right conditions of cold temperature and food scarcity, otherwise they do not hibernate... unless you keep your pet rat outside during the winter where its cold... it won't hibernate

Yes they do! Only in the wild though. If you have them as a pet then they will not hibernate

I agree.

durring the winter months, food is scarce and the temperature drops. their tiny bodies can't handle it, so they hibernate! they don't eat, and rarely wake up during hibernation.
