It doesnt really mean anything. Its a normal thing that pets do. Get your rat a pice of wood or something for it to chew on. It chews on things because it needs to keep its teeth healthy. Anyways, have fun with your rat.

rats usually need to chew something! at all times! so its normal, just let it, or get him something to chew on.

He probly thinks your hand is food because it smells like food. Do wash ur hands be4 and after handling ur rats- cuz i bet that is why.

Rats don't have the best eyesight. He probably thinks your finger is food. It's not a big deal. There isn't anything wrong with him.

Any animal that does this is just using its senses to try and figure out who it is.....its not trying to bite off your finger, so i dont think you have to worry, I hop3 I helped

I own 2 rats,and this happens to me, too. Do you put food and treats in its cage that way? He/She might jump to the conclusion everything put in its cage through the bars is food.

It might like the salt on your skin. So long as it isn't chomping on you and drawing blood, it might just be showing affection for you.

It means he thinks your finger is food, it's better to just put pick him up and hold him in your hand.

<span style="background: url([Link](Mouse over link to see full location); I don't have a rat but I took care of one before. He never did that though. But it probably means that he doesn't want to go in or that he just might need some more food or drink or just wants attention. Anyway, Good luck. Love ya- Mandee </span>

Well, lol it might mean little love bites, or he's just excited and waiting for food. Probably little love bites, alot of animals do that.
