Rats and Pumpkins

Rats will naturally explore and seek out the strangeness and textures of pumpkins, the seeds as well as the flesh. A big pumpkin with its big aroma is utterly enticing. The rats' curiosity and foraging instinct are stimulated, making pumpkin play a great enrichment opportunity.

My pet rats enjoy their first pumpkin. I just cut out the top and let them have at it. This first video is of Bonny who was shy about that pumpkin - it might have eaten her up! With extra special baby talk she was enticed to get her first pumpkin seed.
