There might be a time when I have three rats (maybe) so I think all of these would hold them. If anyone has ever had any of these cages before I would love their input on them, though the reviews say they’re pretty good. Thanks so much!

His cage is big but he chooses to sleep on the ground. He did a friend when we got him but we didn’t get the friend. Could he be depressed and we play with him a lot.

Any suggestions? http://portablefoldinghammock.com/hammock-q-and-a/my-ratsrat-cage-smell-like-urine-constantly-any-suggestions/ http://portablefoldinghammock.com/hammock-q-and-a/my-ratsrat-cage-smell-like-urine-constantly-any-suggestions/#comments Sat, 09 Jul 2011 14:43:10 +0000 admin http://portablefoldinghammock.com/hammock-q-and-a/my-ratsrat-cage-smell-like-urine-constantly-any-suggestions/ I have 5 male rats that are about 10-12 weeks old. 3 of the males are from the same litter and the other 2 are from a different litter. The 2 are also a week or so older. I have a 5 level ferret cage for them and it seems there is more than enough space for them. I clean their cage every four days and the very next day after I clean the cage, it immediately smells like urine. I bathe them all before I put them back in the cage and they also smell like urine, a day or so later. They poo and pee in their house, on the levels, in their hammock…everywhere! I’ve considered litter training them but a friend told me they won’t urinate in the litter, only poo. I’m not going to give them away but I can’t stand the smell! Please help!

It stands 5′ also comes with a stand with rollers that makes it another 10" high.
It is new and includes hammocks and a lot of other accessories.
With probably some cage/ramp lining, does it look to be a good one?

She paid about 0 originally for the cage. She had bought it for her one ferret but it had died of adrenal disease shortly after.
The cage that came with my boys looks like one of these http://www.ferret.com/item/super-pet-my-first-home-2-x-2-ferret-cage-2-leve/
They lived on someone’s front porch in that cage.

Right now they are in a bedroom they are using but would like to get a cage too. Money is not an option really, since I expected to spend a lot when I took them in.

I was wondering if there is really any difference in the store bought vs. The homemade. I am trying to save my money, but get them the best quality stuff I can, so I am home making a bunch of the stuff. Can you please leave a link or instructions on how to make ferret hammocks? And ferret toys too(: that would be great! Thanks! :D
