hi all,

i was just wondering if anybody has any rat bedding (hammocks, snugs etc) and toys available? been looking online and they cost a small fortune!

west midlands.

thanks

You ca make rat hammocks out of pillow cases and tea towels. Just poke holes in each corner and buy some clips off eBay u get something like 20 for £3.

Why don't u also look on eBay for second hand toys etc.

Seconding that.
The best rat toys tend not to be ones marketed at rats at all!

You can make a cargo net out of a washing line from poundland (I did this myself this evening and it's already a big hit!)

Old t-shirts, pillowcases and those baby blankets in poundland work as hammocks.

On a roll with poundland here- you get a pack of 6 cat balls- 4 of which are suitable for ratties.

An old storage tub or cardboard box filled with scraps of paper is great for digging

They seem to love toilet rolls too. Zipties are like 250 for a pound in Tesco and you can attach almost anything with them.

It's kind of hit and miss with rats and wheels, so I wouldn't stress out too much about getting one- it might end up being a waste! And they can climb the cage itself for exercise anyhow.

Thought of something else: again poundland-based! I bought those dog rope toys- you can either use them as they are-not with the rubber balls- or you can untangle the ones with the balls and replait them to make rope toys.
