| Nice cage! Just so you know, pine and cedar bedding are toxic to small animals. It causes respiratory problems and even liver disease. Aspen is the safe wood bedding. CareFresh and Yesterday's News are much better options, though. Also - your ratties need a bigger wheel. For rats, you need the largest size offered, which is 12 or 12.5 inches. Otherwise, they strain their back a lot when running | |

| Very good advice.....I need to change that bedding!
But the wheel..hmm...the wheel. They never run in it...perhaps it is all about size. Guess the saying " size matters" is true! | |

| They actually do play on the slides. Obviously not like we would by sitting down and sliding....but the use them frequently running up and down. They spend most of their time sleeping in the hammock. | |
