We have a Double Critter Nation with the closely spaced bars. Recently when I feed Nibbles through the cage bars, he has been accidentally clamping his teeth around a bar and thinking that he's got his teeth on the treat. He'll pull as hard as he can while I'm screaming at him to stop and trying to bop him on the nose. He hasn't hurt himself yet, but I'm scared he's going to snap his teeth. I know they grow back, but I imagine that would be incredibly painful and then we'd have to feed him baby food for weeks.
Is this a realistic danger? Is it possible a rat could snap his teeth off from trying to pull on something too hard?
