If you or your children are considering keeping some rats as pets, a) let me encourage you! They're wonderful pets! and b) you'll need a sizeable cage and supplies. We're finished with rats for now, so I'm giving away the basics you'd need to get started: - two-level cage, 24" W x 14" D x 36" H, with a deep plastic pan (Rat Tower by Martin's Cages, powdercoated) - two glass water bottles and mounts - two ceramic food dishes - plastic igloo - litter tray - tunnels and hides - exercise wheel - cat carrier for trips to the vet If you're interested, just let me know.
