Re: "rat calcualtor" ?
It's a website that will calculate how many rats can fit into your cage. I mean, not how many rats you can literally stuff in there, but how many can live in there comfortably. (Although I am a bit curious how many rats could all be stuffed into my FN - like 200?)

That calculator also takes into account the shelf space. It might give you a more realistic calculation.
According to the rattycorner calculator, my new Martins cage (24Wx14Dx60H) can hold 5 rats. According to the UK Fancy Rats calculator, it can hold 5.83 rats (so nearly 6). According to the ratzrus calculator, link above, it can hold 5 or 6 maximum.
But, according to the rattycorner calculator, my 34Wx22Dx19H cage can hold up to 4 rats. And on the UK Fancy Rats calculator, it says 4 rats as well. However, the same cage, according to the ratzrus calculator, can only hold 2 because it only has 1 small shelf and the bottom floor space.
So it's height isn't really much of a factor. You can have a seriously tall cage and it could say you can keep 10 rats in it, but if you have only 1 shelf and the floor space, that isn't a realistic number. It's all about the wise use of space and floor area.

It also, in reality, depends on how much time your rats spend outside the cage. If you take them out and let them roam quite a bit then that's also something to think about.

First one said two, second one said 4 maximum. :O I have three rats in my cage right now but they are still babies of about seven weeks.
