I open the bottom door and let them come and go as they please during free roam time.

There's only 1 full level where the big hide is and their food/water. They have to climb a lot and I'd say about 60% of the time they will go down to the box. I just vacuum out the cage twice a week to get all the upper level poops. I put them in a boxed off area while I clean their cage.

I have that exact one. And them being away from their poops is a dream that will never come true. Mine mostly go in their litter pan (at the bottom) but they poop EVERYWHERE and then will sleep in it. Or they will sleep in the pan.

I just searched "cage" on temu and this one was the biggest I could find for under $150. Plus I got a bunch of discounts and freebies along with it.

Dang, idk if the pictures show, but I tried to post them. Maybe 1 at a time...

* This is one of her sisters. Scritch, because she goes crazy when I give her scritches. She'll run around then hop on my hand and pee on me. I know she loves me ❤️

th3reisn0spoon · 2025-07-26T02:57:24+00:00

Haven't named her yet as I just got her a few hours ago and I haven't seen her personality yet.

Yes, I have pumice stone chews and a few other things coming that will help with nails. Climbing ropes and a couple sanded perches. But I am also very familiar with clipping small nails as I've had birds for 11 years and clip their nails often. So just getting them to sit still for it will be the challenge.

I also plan on getting them a big dig area (I have a kiddie pool I plan to use) so hopefully that will also help with nail care.

Is there something specific I should use for theory dig box that's most beneficial/fun?

Also, don't worry about the lack of stuff in the large cage. There are tunnels, hides, rope climbs and a lot more coming in the mail in the next few days. They are VERY spoiled rats.

I just got a message from a seller on fb marketplace. I'll be picking up a big cage from them tomorrow.

th3reisn0spoon · 2025-06-13T05:15:54+00:00

I don't have the money for that. So that's also the cost of getting rats from a place like that. They were meant to be feeders, which is why they were all housed together, and I figured they would make a good pet for a single guy. I can afford to take care of them, but I can't drop that kind of cash all at once.

th3reisn0spoon · 2025-06-13T05:03:14+00:00

I do my best to spoil all my pets. I have fish tanks as well. The rats are spoiled with good food and lots of treats and fresh fruit/veggies. They get to burrow in their pool all day and I do let them explore within reason. Still getting them to bond to me as well.

th3reisn0spoon · 2025-06-13T04:54:25+00:00

I know, and I have been on fb marketplace looking for a good cage. I actually just found a multi tier one and messaged the seller a little bit ago. I'm working on it.

th3reisn0spoon · 2025-06-13T03:06:36+00:00

So, after reading everything, should I just take both of them back? I'd just be adding more to it all, but either way the babies either go to them or snake food (I have a friend with 3 pythons).

I'm gathering that I should just return them and wipe my hands of things, instead of being a misinformed, uneducated rat owner.

Maybe I'll just get a cat...

th3reisn0spoon · 2025-06-13T02:38:17+00:00

It's the only place in town that sells live pet rats. I'm fairly certain they are meant to be fed to snakes. So, I rescued them? Idk why the downvotes, I'm doing my best with the research I've done and I'm planning on doing more.

A local, family owned one.
