Jesusita Dykhoff: i don't know you need to be more specific on this one. who or what is this rat toy for???
Jodie Capella: Chew Toys Here's a few chew toy ideas for your ratties for when they get bored with shredding your antique furniture, heirloom quilt and expensive carpet. 1. Macadamia nuts in their shell. Or any other hard shelled nut for that matter (try pecans, walnuts, hazelnuts, etc). 2. Cooked chicken or beef bones (that's Statty gnawing one in the photo) 3. Wood chews (preferably non-pine). You can buy flavoured wood blocks from pet stores, or soak some clean wood blocks in juice for flavour. Your rats may also enjoy paddle pop sticks (leave some icecream on it for them!) or disposable wooden chop sticks, and will probably chew on any wooden toys in their cage. 4. Nylabone edibles 5. Hard, low protein, low fat dog biscuits (e.g. Eukanuba Restricted Calorie Rewards) 6. Baby teething rusks 7. Wine corks - heaps of fun to shred, or so my boys tell m! e. 8. Cardboard boxes - these make a handy nest box and chew toy in one. Rat teeth grow constantly and although they brux to keep them down, rats also love to gnaw. No matter how many chew toys you offer them, they often get more enjoyment out of chewing things they shouldn't (like your furniture, toothbrush, pencils, etc). However, most things are safe for rats to chew as their mouths are designed not to ingest gnawed fragments. I hope that helped(:For more Rat toys idea visit the link...Show more
Joaquin Dronko: you really need to buy them wood chew sticks for their teeth, but they love anything they can chew on! toilet paper tubes are simple and you don't have to do anything - they like to hide in them and chew on them.
Lolita Deschamp: The best toys are the ones that stimulate many senses and that give a child the opportunity to make things happen. Babies take a swipe at the ball placed on the floor in front of them and discover that not only does it roll! away, it makes music! They’re motivated to stretch and reac! h and make it happen again. When choosing toys for a child, think carefully about the toy and the child. Choose toys that are developmentally appropriate, that build on skills the child already has and provide a few challenges. What does your child enjoy playing right now? Give her the tools the toys that will help her do it better....Show more
Toby Women: Toys for you rat are great for when you are not around to play with them and can amuse them in the meantime. Normally rats teeth gnaw down when they eat lab blocks or rat mix or brux them, but I do not see why not giving them other stuff to chew on. General Toys: Hammocks - hammocks are great and one of the best toys a rat could have! They love to snuggle up in it and keep warm. (How to make a hammock, thurther on)Toilet rollsPaper bags : Rats love to shred and tear these apart. Nest box - Tissue boxes are good for the rat to sleep in. If you want, add some old clothes/socks and! even some tissue or paper towl to make it more comfortable.LaddersToilet rollsTubesRopeCat toys Chew Toys:Dog Biscuits - make sure they are low in protein and please try and get high quality brands.Nuts In Shell (Pecans, macadamia, walnuts, hazelnuts)Wood - make sure the wood is treated, not painted and non - toxicChew Blocks - you can buy these at a pet store. Some have many interesting colours or flavours!Cooked Bones - Not only is it extra nutriiton but it also exercisies the rats teeth! Make sure you do not feed "splinerty" bones such poultry or fish. Fish bones can be too small and very sharp and might get lodged down the rat`s throat and cause death. Beef and chicken are good.Carboard Boxes Wine CorksPop SticksBaby Teething RusksHere is a few websites that will give you more imformation and ideas. http://www.dapper.com.au/toys.htm#chewtoyshttp://exoticpets.about.com/od/careofrats/qt/ratst...http://hubpages.com/hub/Games_and_T! oys_for_Your_Pe...http://www.rmca.org/Articles/toys.htmhttp://www.fancy! -rats.co..uk/information/guides.php...Home made hammock:You will neeed:A peice of soft clothSome thinn rope or thick stringScissorsInstructions:1.

Mack Ukich: You dont need anything for them to grind there teeth down. That is a my! th. Rats will grind there teeth together and this keeps them at there proper length that they need to be. The only time you have to worry about there teeth is when they have mallocolusion when there jaws dont line up and there teeth grow to long on the bottem to where they cant eat. Then you have to take them to the vet roughly about once a month and get there teeth cut down. Just telling you so you dont worry. But my girls love toilet paper rolls. My one female rat loves cat balls. I roll them in the cage and she chases them down picks them up in her mouth and brings it to me to roll again. Funniest thing I have ever seen. They also like 12 pack boxes and anything they can run through or hide in....Show more
Marielle Hedeiros: Take a toilet paper tube and put cereal inside and then fold the ends closed and put in it the cage. They go ballistic trying to carry it away to safety.Give them kleenex boxes to rip up.To keep teeth trim, feed them lab blocks vs seed mixes. ! Seed mixes aren't usually nutritionally balanced for a rat either (even! if it says rat food). You can also buy cheap bird toys for them to chew on. The occasional nut is fun for them to bust open. (very occasional as nuts are high in fat).1. Macadamia nuts in their shell. Or any other hard shelled nut for that matter (try pecans, walnuts, hazelnuts, etc).2. Cooked chicken or beef bones (that's Statty gnawing one in the photo)3. Wood chews (preferably non-pine). You can buy flavoured wood blocks from pet stores, or soak some clean wood blocks in juice for flavour. Your rats may also enjoy paddle pop sticks (leave some icecream on it for them!) or disposable wooden chop sticks, and will probably chew on any wooden toys in their cage.4. Nylabone edibles5.
