Dentastix?

[Corallyne]

I have 5 female rats (4 adults, 1 almost-adult). I also have 3 dogs and in their bag of dog food we got a sample in separate packaging of Pedigree Dentastix. Our dogs refuse to chew on them, so I was wondering if this was all right for the rats to chew/eat? (My girls have quickly learned that if I'm giving it to them, it must be good, so they've lost their cautiousness they had when they were babies.)

I suppose it would be fine to give just this once to use them up (like I don't think there's anything immediately dangerous about it), but Dentastix are really unhealthy, and I wouldn't feed them to my dogs or my rats. They're mainly grain by-products, sugar and salt.

Pedigree is really a bad pet food brand. I wouldn't give it to my rats.

I would advise against it! Pedigree is full of artificial preservatives and fillers.
