A brick placed in their cage will naturally file their nails. Or, at pet stores, they sell ferret and rabbit nail cutters, which can be used for rats. Just be verrry careful not to cut the nerve. keep cornstarch or syptic powder on hand in case you do.

Why are there metal bands on palm trees in Hawaii?

The metal bands are to keep rats from climbing the trees. Rats will climb a palm tree and gnaw on the coconuts until they fall to the ground and split open so they can eat the insides. This poses a hazard to people who may be walking underneath the trees. The metal band keeps the rats' claws from sinking into the bark and hinders their ability to climb.

What toys can you make for pet rats?

Rats are rodents and need to chew to keep their teeth from growing too long. Your best bet is to create a toy of suitable size and shape made from a non-toxic natural substance that your rats will enjoy chewing on. Some examples are: small blocks of unfinished wood, short lengths of knotted cotton rope, small house with doors and windows made from plain cardboard box, empty toilet paper roll.
