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.
Pet rats like variety. Make them wooden toys to help it wear its teeth. Make sure the toys are of a material that it can not tear pieces off of and eat as this can make them sick(except for wood).

You can find pet rats in a lot of pet stores, or animal rescues. You can find wild rats just about anywhere.
