OK.... so here's my situation. I currently have 8 rats in my FN 142 (that's the double model right) anyhoo I have a new rattie cricket, and I pulled out all the tricks to intro her but my ratties seem to enjoy endlessly attacking her, so she's in one of my super pet cages as a temporary dig. She is going to be getting a dumbo friend from a rescue (just one only one.....keep repeating.....) and I've been toying with two ideas
1. get the FN add on, and creat a three story cage that's sectioned off. Two levels for my 8 ratties and one for my two (not three.......keep repeating)
or
2. getting the FN 141 (is that the single model?) and possibly expand later if need be. :roll: two ferret nations.......no wonder I can't save any money.
Pros and Cons of both
1.CON~ It will be super high. I'm afraid this will make it difficult to clean but hey that's what the step ladder was invented for. The added height makes me nervous should they fall. A drop from a normal FN would be high enough but maybe that's not a huge issue.
PRO~Should I have an eventual successful introduction of the two new ratties, which I'm still hopeful of. They will have a huge cage that can comfortably fit 18 rats, and i'll only have 10 (only 10 no more :? ) it's about 40 $ cheaper
2.CON~It takes up more space. Much more space! It's more money!
PRO~It can be expanded to another full cage in the future!
