Making them more fluid or elastic depending on their composition. But, I don't think there is a needed fat that can only be obtained from animals only.
Also, mice and rats have very similar bodies to humans. Their digestive and circulator system is very similar to our own. I mean, they're not perfect, but usually there aren't huge glaring differences between us.
