HOLISTIC HEALTH CARE AND RAW FOOD FOR PET RATS

Hello and Welcome to The Natural Rat, a place for learning how to care for your pet rats with raw food and holistic health care.

We feel that the animals we share our lives with deserve the best of health care we can possibly give them and here at the Natural Rat, we would like to share with you what we have learned to keep our own little furries as happy and healthy as possible.

What is The Natural Rat About?

It's about helping our little friends live a life that is simple and natural with a strong emphasis on 'connectedness with their natur-al roots'.
This means we look at the type of food avaiable to the 'wild' rat as a guide. However, given that our pet rats are domesticated animals living in a domestic situation, we mainly feed a raw vegan plant based diet.

Although the fancy rat we have come to enjoy as our pet is very different to the wild rat, their instinctive nature is very much 'alive' when given the chance to experience life in the wild (as seen in 'The Laboratory Rat' film)

In the wild, nature provides all the food the rat requires including an abundance of berries, whole fruits, roots, bark, soil, leaves, seeds, nuts, herbs, flowers, insects, worms etc.

The food is provided by nature in it's whole RAW state.

Although the wild rat and our pet rat have different needs due to their environment, we provide the food in it's raw state just as nature does.

There has been much research into the health benefits and anti-aging effects of raw foods and many people are now returning to this way of eating as well as feeding their pets raw food.

I will be sharing my experiences of feeding my rats a raw vegan diet in my forthcoming book.

In the meantime, please enjoy the site and article section.

Good Health to you and your furries!
