Re: Fleece for Rats?

I use fleece in my ratties cages. I don't use large pieces of it but smaller squares or strips. They have a bowl that I hide treats in the girls cage and I use fleece strips in it. They nibble on them once in a while but not very often. Then I use fleece squares here and there and they put them where they want them. I also use hand towels because they like to hide under them and sleep.

In the bottom of the girls cage, I use rag throw rugs. I can get them at Wal-Mart for like $.83 each so if they chew a bit on one it's no big deal, I throw it away. I use critter care in the litter pan.

My girls only tend to chew up things they do not like. The boys don't seem to chew anything up. I use fleece pieces in the boys cage too. The boys also have a digging bowl but since their cage is a bit smaller than the girls cage, the boys get their bowl during playtime.
