A ratcage named Jenny
October 16, 2004 - Today I've acquired a brand new
rat cage at Casper (a petshop in
Noord-Scharwoude, The Netherlands) for my two ratty friends-to-be. It's a
Tube
Line "Jenny" from
Ferplast, which is 80 cm in
width, 79.5 cm in height and has a depth of 50 cm. Turned 90°
(so that the depth becomes the width and vice versa) it fits the now partly
former bookcase in my living room in such a way, that the rats will be able
to climb out of the cage and right unto my couch, where I usually sit when
watching TV. The cage came with a number of accessories: one ramp, two
corner shelves, two tubes, a water bottle, and two stainless steel feeding
bowls. I've also bought a hammock, but it will probably not last very long
(two week tops?).
It took me some time to set up the cage, partly because
I've placed it on top of two empty Grolsch beer crates; the crates weren't
empty yet, you see... ;-) The cage has quickly become an
integrated part of my living room. The only thing still missing is the
rats, of course.
