Cage Decorating!!!



Hello!

Today I will give some brief ideas on how to add some pazzazz to your rat cage.



Have any small cereal, cracker, or cardboard boxes? Cut multiple holes in each one and set them in your rat cage. Your rats will love crawling in and out of these fun houses!!

Get or make some hammocks!! You can either get a hammock at most pet stores, or you can also make one by sewing fabric into a thick square and adding clasps on each point.

Chew toys! Like all small rodents, Rats need to, well, pretty much saw down their teeth. And if they don't, their teeth will grow too long and many problems will occur…
 Wood blocks purchased from the pet store are usually a great choice. However DO NOT USE PINE OR CEDAR, THEY CONTAIN CHEMICALS THAT CAN FATILY HARM YOUR RAT.
And as for painted wood being chewed by your rat, well, thats really your opinion.But personally, do you really want your rats chewing on dye or paint? Just saying….
So for my rats, Un-painted wood other than Cedar or Pine are the way to go.


Add tunnels, slides, platforms made of various materials, and your your rat cage is sure to have that desired Sparkle!!!
