We adopted again-

-and in the ever evolving "as the rat turns" saga-

We have decided to get a penthouse cage and put all 5 girls in together. I am returning the unopened cage I bought for Nani-and we will keep or sell the other two.

I picked up a "playpen" for small animals-yeah-only small animals with NO climbing ability. It was a whack a mole game- pluck off the escaping rat and plunk her back in the pen. Yeah- that's going back too.

They will love being together. Ours are in an extra large free-standing rabbit hutch decorated with ferret hammocks and hanging fabric tubes (again, from the ferret section), ramps, observation posts, etc. Really, most any plaything that is appropriate for a ferret or guinea pig is rattie safe. They also seem to enjoy when I move all of their stuff around. It's like a new adventure!

hmm, we bought two ferret hammocks-Sugar and Annabelle ate through two of the straps and chewed holes in it.

Advice?

Raylie is fascinated by them- she keeps trying to lick them through the bars. Tail wagging-but I question her motives. The cage is a rat Fort Knox-we have small padlocks- two on each corner at the top and lower levels-a lock on each of the two doors-and then we used floral wire to "sew" gaps shut where the cage walls meet- three on each corner- top, middle and bottom.

Clover is on her way home right now-she's adorable!
