How Do You Set Up A Pet Rat Cage?
Pet rats are fun pets to have. If properly set up and cared for, they can provide you with hours of fun and enjoyment. Setting up a rat’s cage is not very hard. There are some essential things that your rat will need in the cage. Choose a cage for your rat. Rats can grow rather large, so you will not want to get a small cage. The bigger the cage the better. Make sure the cage has a door and is an easy to clean cage. Most good rat cages have a removable top and bottom pan for easy cleaning. Place wood shavings in the bottom pan of the cage. This will allow your rat to have something soft to walk on and something to use to make a nest or sleeping area. You only need enough shavings to cover the cage floor. Add a water bottle and food bowls. The best type of water bottle for a rat is the type that hangs on the outside of the cage. You should put two or three different food bowls in the cage in different locations. This is especially necessary if you have more than one rat in the cage. Mul
