I get lots of questions about rat cages, so I thought I’d make a post about some cool rat cages that are available easily and offer so much space for the price.
The typical rat cages sold at pet shops are pretty overpriced and small, with the exception of the strong rat cage.
The best alternatives are bird cages. Now not all cages are appropriated, but here are some fab options.
When selecting a cage remember the importance of bar spacing - you don’t want anything bigger than 1.5cm because rats are surprisingly noodley and can squeeze right through them.
