As long as the cut stays dry, probably. It will look rough for a few months at least but it should sprout new growth from the remaining areoles.

Are rats a common problem for your plants? Are they grown outside or in a basement? My neighbors have an army of cats surrounding my area so rodents are few and far between.

Ok I will keep it dry and see what happens, hopefully it will be ok it is the lone survivor lopho.

No, rats don't bother me much outdoors, but I had one get inside the house and had no clue until lots of bites were taken out of my seedlings and some were totally pulled out by the roots and dug up.
