My Rats' Cage
4-10-2003
I know, I know this is a horrible cage.  I've been trying to add different things to it, all without success.  Please submit ideas to help make this cage awesome! Thanks everyone!

(Don't worry, they get a lot of time outside of their cage.  They're usually outside of it for most of the day.  When they're in it, they are sleeping!)
New Homemade Cage!!
Day One
4-12-2003
Yes! I finally did it! It's not finished though.  It will be completely done when I get a hammock, another platform, and a water bottle in there.  I will put the hammock and platform in tomorrow! I'll update this after I'm completely finished!  I feel so proud of myself!
Day Two
4-13-2003
Today, I have added a hamster-ball hammock to their cage.  All I did was drill holes in the hammock, put in a towel, and attach it with those plastic snaps.  They love it! Don't worry, I'm not finished with work today.  Later, I am going to add a second platform.  I also need to do something with the bottom floor, but I don't know what they would like best yet.  Remus likes to burrow under the small step-thing that I made on the bottom of the cage.  Scooter likes it too, but he prefers the top blanket-story. 
Day 3
4-16-2003
Today, I finally added the 2nd story! It has the blue towel on it, with a white one next to it.  You can barely see the loft though.  It's across from the yellow wheel.  Yes! I think I'm finally finished! The towels that belong on the loft are being washed right now.  They had popsicle on them. =)

Guess what? Today, my mom was out garage sale-ing, and she ran across a great rat cage for $3!! So she got it for me.  Now, I already had a cage, which I built myself, and I liked it a lot.  I took the new cage, and compared the size with that of my old cage.  They are exactly the same!!! That's like a one in a million chance!  Well, with twist ties, I put them together, and now my 2 rats have a 5 story cage!!! They LOVE it!! Here are some pictures:
This is the entire cage!!
Here's the bottom half (the new part).
And...here's the top half (the old part)!
