Come on a Rat Cage Tour with me! I show you my critter nation style cage and a play pen I made for my rats. 💫🐁
Btw after making this video I learnt towels are bad to use as bedding. Fleece is a much better option.

Love your videos. I just purchased the same cage and own 6 rats all girls. Because fleece can get expensive or if you have trouble finding it what I do is go to op shops and look for blankets that I can cut up for the trays or go to Kmart and by doggie fleece blankets for $5 to use. Op shop is the cheaper option though.....lol. Keep up the great work girl. Give your girls a super rattie kiss from me

I LOVE YOUR CAGE AAA only towels as bedding can be pretty risky, as they can shred it and potentially choke on it, or swallow it and it might get tangled in their intestines! for me i use fleece + towel underneath. just wanted to let you know if you werent aware ;v;

@@laurenelloise I know you said there is no fabric stores in your area. I live in the USA and they are everywhere! However it's expensive. I go to the all around store and buy cheap fleece blankets! 2-5 dollars and it covers my entire critter nation like what yours is a knock off of

@@laurenelloise is there anything like Value Village where you are? Big thrift stores. Old fleece blankets are where it's at. I would sew them cozy huts and hammocks from it too. ^^ You can order extra shelves for the Critter Nation, it makes a huge difference for them as it adds space. It's *never* too much space, even if there are only a few ratties.
@aryastark3148
@aryastark3148 5 лет назад
@@laurenelloise you can easily make fleece ramp covers too, use velcro to fasten underneath. The extra levels help make the ramps more shallow too for when they're older and steep is harder for them to get up.

I love watching your videos, I am adopting 3 boys tomorrow, up until now I have had only girls. My first were 2 girls I adopted from Craig's list, and then I rescued 2 pews from a hoarder situation.Sadly they have all passed and I thought I would give boys a try. I want them to cuddle with me, as all my girls would never cuddle unless they were in their cage, that was the only time they would lay still and let me pet them until they fell asleep, I don't know if you still do videos but if you do, keep up the good work, I so enjoy them

I'm sorry to hear that your fur baby passed away. I've got my boys now and I can't even bare to think about what I'll do when that time comes. whoever discovered binder clips make the perfect fasteners for a fleece lined rat cage, is a genius. instead of using fleece from a fabric store, Wal-Mart carries fleece throws for $2.50 USD, they come in a variety of patterns and I can get at least two sets from one blanket. you can't beat it. I thought I was the only one who has meals with my rats lol, I eat, they eat. I have as much fun making those cardboard castles as they do playing in them. they're such amazing creatures and I can't imagine life without them. It's a daily task to properly clean rat cages haha, I like switching it up so that it's new and exciting I'm their cage so they are entertained while I'm at work. that looks like the easiest cage I'm the world to clean. mine doesn't have a large opening and you gotta do it all through smaller doors. Do you perhaps have a link for that cage?

@rebekahlegionsundaygirljou5543
I have almost the same cage as You. The same in every way except for one. The doors only open on one side & I very sadly didn't find this out until We put it together & it makes Me cry. I gave Myself frozen shoulder trying to take one of the furthest lava ledges down on My own for cleaning. Getting the Savic Royale XL in 6 weeks though so Yess!! 2 full levels & 4 half levels. Super excited! For the first time ever I'm down to one rat on Her own. I had a group of neutered males & My Young female so getting Her new friends will take at least a few weeks & careful planning & I'm getting them from a small animal rescue. By the way I did originally have 2 females but one of them had to be re-adopted as She was extremely rat aggressive & even the smell of other rats made Her want to kill. I mean literally kill,, not just fight. A rare set of circumstances.
@laurenelloise
@laurenelloise 5 лет назад
the Savic Royale XL looks like it will be a great choice! Looks huge, im sure the rats will love it! Aw sorry to hear about your other ratties. Hope your girl is doing okay in the meantime. And i hope when you get her some more friends, they all settle in nicely. x
@rebekahlegionsundaygirljou5543
@@laurenelloise Aw thanks. Yeah She's surprisingly doing well. I've arranged to pick Her up new buddies in just over a fortnight. Yes I'm hoping everyone settles in together. I'm a bit apprehensive after what happened with Her Sister. I think She'll be okay though. Oh yeah the Savic Royale & Royale XL also have deep pans so You have the option of using a substrate like Finacard or another rat safe bedding. I've always used fleece in the Aventura but newspaper pellets in the smaller cage (I use a smaller cage for the first few weeks) but I'm open to trying out a nesting material & seeing how it goes. It's better for scatter feeding too.

I am SO jealous of your cage and your play pen..... I have rats, but I can only have so many because we don't have room for a bigger cage and there's absolutely no way my parents would let me set up a play pen oooooh-no-no. (I'd have nowhere to put it when it was not in use) I let them run around our lounge room while we're watching TV. I hope someday I can have an entire room of the house set up for my babies :D

well, one of them isn't doing too good. She's not gaining weight, is growing in length a little bit (1.5cm in 2 weeks I'd estimate), isn't super active and has the sniffles. And now, she's either losing hair from her face, or her sister is barbering her really bad. I'm really worried that she's not gonna make it, and she's such a little cutie and very affectionate.

I know this is an old comment but just in case anyone else needs to see it, you can help your rats become comfortable with you by handling them multiple times a day, feeding them treats from your hands, putting an old shirt int he cage so they get used to your smell, providing safe hiding places for them.

Would newspaper be an okay alternative for a litter tray?
@laurenelloise
@laurenelloise 5 лет назад
I just researched this a bit for you (I was curious too but my general opinion was probably not). But here’s what I learned. It’s best to avoid using printed or colored paper. The inks can stain rat fur and might be toxic, or at least cause an upset stomach, if ingested. Newspaper isn’t very absorbent so it’s pretty useless for litter trays. Recycled paper cat litter works really well because it’s meant for absorbing wetness and smell. Just don’t use normal cat litter.

It's a tough one, but do what will keep you the safest. Maybe you could write a letter to your parents? And leave it for them, and let them process it before asking/bringing it up? Your parents love you and should love you for who you are, they just might need time to process because they haven't experienced it before. I hope this is helpful. 💕 I don't have any lgbt+ friends either in real life ahhhh! If you ever figure that one out, let me know lol.

Wild rats and mice are not the same as Fancy (pet) rats and mice. Unless they are hurt/injured you shouldn't keep them, they belong in the wild. If they are hurt I'd suggest taking them to a vet or a wildlife rescue xoxo

@SunnieDIY
@SunnieDIY 4 года назад
I wonder if the pea skin is hard for them to eat? It is a bit thick kind of like corn kernel skin. The skin on corn is what tends to kill rabbits and small critters because they cant digest it. So my guess is rats being really smart maybe they just know something we dont about the pea skins?

Would it be safe to paint the outside of a cardboard house with acrylic paint for a cute decoration? For example painting the cardboard house to look like a real house? If it’s dangerous for them, Is there Any other safe way to get that effect?
@laurenelloise
@laurenelloise 5 лет назад
I would honestly avoid paint. Rats will chew the boxes, and even tho they don’t eat cardboard, they might ingest some by accident. Plus you’ll have to throw the boxes out each week or two anyway. The boxes will get yucky, best to give them fresh ones.

@laurenelloise

Wishing you well on your savings! :) I don't bathe them, rats in general don't need to be washed because they keep themselves clean. Rats naturally smell, it helps though to clean their bedding a bit more often. Bathing won't hurt them, but personally I find it better not to :)

@laurenelloise
@laurenelloise 7 лет назад
They just picked it up easy. I made a litter tray and added paper pellet litter stuff to it and I also added a rock in it (because rats like to pee on rocks) and I then put it in the corner of the cage where they poop most. Eventually they started using it. If they miss, I just put the poop in the litter tray so that helps too! This article may be helpful :) www.wikihow.com/Litterbox-Train-Your-Rat

It may take some time, but they should get it if you keep moving their poops to the tray. Rat's are pretty smart, they can even still learn tricks at an old age so 4 months should be no problem!

I see almost every comment! I got this cage from eBay Australia. It’s basically a Critter nation, just off brand. Most people get a critter nation because they’re great cages and a really good size. Liberta Explorer is also pretty much the same, so you could try looking for that. Try checking eBay, Craigslist, Facebook marketplace, and amazon for a cages

I've heard the bar spacing on this cage might be too big. I kinda want two or three male rats as I heard they get bigger so it won't be as much of a problem. I'll only be able to get them when I move out so I can save up for this cage (critter nation does not ship to Germany for some reason but this one does). I want to either adopt rats from the shelter or get baby rats. At the moment I have 2 cages (one hamster cage and one for mice) The hamster cage is the smallest, then comes the mice cage and eventually the cage shown in the video. If I get baby rats some day, do you think it would be possible to put them in the smallest first (really small bar spacing that's why I thought of this), then transfer them to the mice cage (significantly bigger but not as high as one critter nation part) and when they are just big enough to the new cage? Or is this too stressful? Should I just buy this grid stuff and put it around the big cage temporarily? I really hope everything turns out how I want it to be. If I never get rats I might use it as a bird cage. (My dream birds are green cheeked conures and african greys lol)Also I can't live without cats but I have high hopes since one of my cats who never went outside besides the balcony is actually scared of my hamster, I don't know how she would react to rats.. She might see them as a kitten once they're big lol The other cat was brought to the shelter at two years old and he goes nuts in my room when he hears the birds. He's not aggressive to get in there but even if you just hold him through the door he only has eyes for the bird cage.
@laurenelloise
@laurenelloise 6 лет назад
Nope the spacing on this cage is perfect. I would just be too big for baby rats (like under 4 weeks old). Usually you bring home rats at 5+ weeks old. You will be absolutely fine with the bigger cage. I'd also keep the your future rrats in a room that cats can't get in because you can't trust them :) xx

Never too late! I think this is something I want to do in the future, something like a Rat 101 with everything you need to know before getting them etc. Generally, its best to adopt or rescue, but if you can't then breeders who know what they are doing are good, then last pet shops. Don't worry I didn't know about dried corn either until 8 months ago. I'm always learning stuff as I go even though I did research. Fleece is the best fabric to use and its best to ask Rats and Mice are Awesome for the best food available near you. 💙💙

@laurenelloise
@laurenelloise 6 лет назад
It's not so much about being trapped, although they do like to climb on the bars. Aquariums are bad for rats as it doesn't allow any ventilation and therefore ammonia can build up and increase the risk of not only you suffering allergies but also the rats getting respiratory issues. 💛 if it's possible for you, I'd try to get a wire cage

@laurenelloise 6 лет назад
I understand. Pet shops can be really bad sometimes with advice, they don't care enough or know enough about the pets they are selling, they are just interested in making a profit and going home.

Theres like 50k members and they should know where a cheap, wire, big cage is near you. xo
