Heavy Duty Rat Cage

Madison WI

Description

$60 cash only. Pick up preferred. This cage has lasted me several years and is quite tough. It’s a teeny bit rusty in places, and it’s a good idea to check over and tighten the bolts holding it together once in a while, but it is still in darn good shape. It has housed at least three generations of pet rats in my care and definitely has a solid few years left. Dimensions are 54”H x 31”L x 20.5” D. The cage comes with an extra tray that could be saved as a replacement, or used to divide the two levels. Top level is simple metal bars, which I would cover to prevent foot issues. I’ve used thick plastic placemats and tiles to cover that platform in the past. I also added furniture sliding pads to the doors to keep the locks from jingling too much. Could comfortably house rat pairs and small groups (3-4 rats), though I recommend not pushing past 4 max in this cage. It would also work for chinchillas or ferrets as long as ample floor time is provided. Cleaned with pet safe cleaner and sanitized with F10 SC veterinary disinfectant solution, but giving one last once over before putting animals in it is always a good practice.
