Cat nip

[Dena]

Can rats have toys with catnip in them? I got a cute pack of Christmas ones, but 2 of them said they have cat nip in them, so I put them aside. Will it hurt them to play with these toys?

No cat nip is not safe for rats - from what I've read it acts like a sedative to them, so better to avoid it. If you can remove the catnip and clean the toys it may be fine - depends if they are plastic or fabric though, plastic would clean easily but I'm not sure about fabric.
