HEy,
Thanks everyone for the information!!!My mom makes ferret hammocks so that wont be a problem there.....I was thinking about getting two females because I have always had troube with Male critters......For my Guinea Pigs I use Critter Care as bedding which is just like Care Fresh just the cheeper stuff....O yes my biggest problem about getting Rats isnt the dogs or cats..but ferrets and Guinea Pigs....My moms ferrets would eat my rats...Mervy and Daizy have a reputaion of unlocking their cages and getting out..just the other night(2 0r 3 am) I woke up face to face to Diazy she opend her cage doors.....If I got 2 rats they would stay in my room of course....but we have Guinea Pigs that we rescued up for adoption so Im going to have to wait on the ratties until the 5 guinea pigs find homes.......and im keeping my 3 Guinea Pigs Mrs.Missy,T-Girl/Boy,and Mr.Piggy......So there are things that im really having to consider before getting a rat....

Cages-At PetCo they have these really neato cages that are two story and come with all kinds of clear diffrent colored tunnles.....But wouldnt just be cheaper to look for some in the papers and buy tunnles at pet shops?I was tihnking it would(I look for the cheep stuff )
Food-What kinds of veggies or fruits do rats eat??

Do rats get along with Guinea Pigs?I dont mean by putting the rats and Guinea Pigs together but if I was to have the rats and GPs in the same room the rats wouldnt go crazy or anything trying to get to the GPs would they.....

Well Thanks!
Kay
