You can also add some fresh fruits and vegetables but not too many because some may be actually harmful to your rat. Things like grapes, strawberries, apples, carrots and small amounts of banana are good treats. Rats also enjoy peanuts and unsweetened whole grain cereals. Always make sure there is fresh water available at all times. Rats need at least an hour of attention each day.
Rats love to be held and cuddled.
They look forward to spending time with their owner everyday. Rats like to ride up on their owners shoulder or around by the neck and under hair because it's warm and close. Most rats will want to stay there and cuddle up. To make sure your rat gets enough exercise you can encourage him to play little games. Some rats like to play with a little ball or will want to just chase around.
