They themselves were the last animals they were in contact with after the exposure...in fact splinter had been livin under the sewers for some time prior to the ooze fallin into the drain...he should be even less likely to turn humanish than the turtles...(this of course goes for the pet rat story)

I'll agree with that. Just that the turtles didn't mix with a humanm, and splinter did doesn't make sense to me. I like that they were all animals and the ooze gave them human qualities.

Plus, I am an animal supremisist! (however you spell it.) Splinter was a very smart rat.
