Some people question whether or not they can give their pet rats cherries, though they are perfectly suited for these rodents. The fact is that cherries have a lot to offer in terms of overall nutrition and they can be very good for the human body and even that of a rat.

It is important for those who have these pets to wash their cherries and remove the pits before feeding them to their rats though. The last thing you will want is for your rats to choke on the cherries or suffer from adverse health effects brought on by a pesticide still on the fruit.
