take a tissue box and attach to the top of your cage using pipe cleaners and you rats will get creative trying to get up there and when they do they will sleep in there

when i first put it in there my one rat went in there then the next and now today all 3 of my rats are happily packed in there like sardines

oh yeah, good idea.

Im doing that.

I would be afriad that the tissue box would rip and fall but if it's sturdy I bet it's a favorite of the ratties.

Another thing you could do is hang bins from the dollar store up with paper clip chains.

 

[ratrover]

thats a good idea but if the box did break they wouldnt even fall 4 inches. my cage is wide not tall

 

[Matt]

I just did it with a cardboard box and zip-ties.

Its not going anywhere. and they love it!

It didnt take up any usable floor space, It took up wasted ceiling space.
They can walk right into to from there hammock.
They could even roll into it..lol...

They will probably end up chewing it off the ties, or chewing out the bottom. Fun, but make sure to take it out when that happens.

 

[Matt]

They cant get to the ties at all. I "rat-proofed" it.
(I learned to do this to everything right away..lol..)

The only way it should get messed up is by them chewing the box itself.

Il have to try that when i get my ratties

Well yeah, but I was talking about it falling from the top of the cage and them chewing through the ties and stuff.
