Do fancy rats do better with a mate or by itself?
They should have at least one other cage mate so they do not get lonely and stressed out.
Should rats and hamsters be in the same cage?
No.
Can two female fancy rat live in the same cage?
Yes! It is actually recommended that you keep at least 2 rats together, if not more! Make sure the cage is large enough and give them a while outside of the cage to get to know each other. Rats are very social animals and do not like to like to live alone.
What is the name of the cage in which rats are kept?
There is no specific name for a cage for rats, its just based on what the housing is. So a cage for rats is just a cage. (Just like a hutch for rabbits is still a hutch even with no rabbits in)
How much does a rat cage cost in American dollars?
If you want a really fancy one, it could be around two hundred dollars. The one I have was a bargain at thirty. (check petco's website, there are discounts for buying online) Just make sure it's big enough. petcos fancy rats are about 6 dollars. check craigslist.com for more rats for 5 dollars or more
How many cm in length and height should a cage for two or three rats be?
Well for three rats there should be three levels I don't know the length or width but there should be a lot of space and that is because as they get bigger they need more room. My friend has rats and she had hers made I don't where but it is great it has three levels and she has four rats but the bottom level is close to the bottom of the cage and so it is a hiddy sort of place and she has so many toys you can't see the rats. If you get a cage get one with levels.
Are dumbo rats smaller thn fancy rats?

How do you stop a male fancy mouse from being mean to another male fancy?
You take both the of the rats and put them in an area that neither of them have claimed. Keep them in their for about 2 days. You have to keep an eye on them though. Once they are good together move them back into the old cage. If this does not work then you may not sue me. Also you can take the one that isn't mean and get it a new cage. Next time you get rats I advise you to buy the same litter.
How long should pet rats be allowed to play out of their cage?
As long as you have time for! Rats are extremely social animals and love human interaction.
Why are rats afraid of cages?
Not all rats are afraid of cages. My rats have always loved their cage, and when let out to play would wander in and out at their leisure. If you have rats who are afraid of their cage maybe there is something in the cage they do not like, maybe the cage is too small, maybe the cage is not comfortable enough or in a good position. Maybe there is something near the cage that scares the rats or maybe they do not get enough playtime and then resist going back into their cage. There are many reasons why a rat may be fearful of their cage, so there is no definitive answer.
Is it bad for fancy rats bedding to be wet?
Yes - any non-aquatic animals' bedding should be dry, unless pet care guides indicate that it should be damp. For a rat's bedding to be wet it indicates that the rat(s) have urinated in the bedding, in which case it needs to be changed and the cage cleaned.
