I gave two of my rats a tiny tiny bite of chocolate tonight! i made chocolate muffins and i read off another post on here that a small small bit of chocolate helps with respatory issues. I didn't give any to my mother though, i could bearly hold the little bits of chocolate because i didn't want to give them too much.

Chocolate does indeed have something in it that can help open up the air ways if a rat is ill. It is fine to give in small amounts or as an occasional treat but as always don't overdo it ^^

Just remember that dark chocolate is the only one that is good as a bronchodilator with a rat having respiratory problems. It opens things up to help them breath. Feeding them chocolate won't help with a URI in the long run.
