Mine do! Do yours? Do they roam free w/ supervison or do you have a cage you put them in?
Since spring shall soon be here (it is still winter in WI, even tho spring started on March 21st) I am getting really anxious to let my ratties go outside and play. They love it so much! This is their rabbit hutch that they stay in.

Sometimes if it is super nice out, and no storms/rain they stay outside all night. I am also currently working on a "run" for them, so they can play in the grass safely. It is 2 feet high and 5 feet long, made out of wood and chicken wire. :D
Has your pet ever gotten loose outside? Three of my ratties did. Oh man, that was a horrible day! Punkin (RB), Nugget, and Sweet Pea somehow queezed out of their cage (not seen in photo above). I went outside to bring them in, and they 3 were missing. I found Punkin sitting on the cage seen in picture above, and Sweet Pea was in the hose reel box. Nugget was no where to be found. About 30 min later my mom was standing in the kitchen looking out the window, and saw Nugget pop out of the chipmunk hole and the base of a tree. So, we went to the farm store and bought a Havahart live trap and set it up with yummy treats to lure her out. We draped a towel over it so it seemed tunnel-ish to her. About 10 min later we caught her. OI! That was horrible, I never used that cage again!! :eek: :o
