In many iterations, Splinter is depicted as having always been a rat, the pet of his old master Hamato Yoshi. And like the Turtles, Splinter was exposed to mutagen, which explains how he became an anthropomorphic version of his former-self. In some incarnations, however, Splinter was actually human — in fact, he was Hamato Yoshi, who was transformed by the mutagen into a rat.
