Rats are scavengers. In the wild, they eat extremely cautiously and generally stick to foods they know are safe. But when foods are scarce, rats are forced to try new foods. A single rat samples a small bit of a new food and returns to the pack where the rest of the rats can inspect the tester's muzzle, breath, and well-being. The pack then decides if the food is safe. I am always purchasing healthy foods from an online store myunikorn.com for my pet rat.

Rats bred to be pets are much gentler and sweeter than rats raised as food.
