It is the martins rat high rise

Answer 1

Depends on how much room you want them to have,(& not having seen the cage in person) I'd probably say 2-3 adults.

Answer 2

1 or two...and rats have to live in pairs! Get atleast a 2 feet b y 4 feet cage.

Answer 3

I have that exact cage and I have had 10 rats in it but there was not enough room. I would only keep 6 or so at the most.

I like the Martin's cages except for the wire floor on the upper levels, my rats have gotten bumble foot from it. I put cardboard boxes (shoe boxes are perfect) or carpet sample pieces on the upper levels.

check out this site too, and good luck

Answer 4

Barely even fits one, it's a lot smaller than it looks on the website.  

Answer 5

That is a really small cage. It would only be large enough for a single rat, which would not wortk out considreing rats need companions. Rats need a min. of 2 cubic feet per rat.

The minimum sized cage you could use for two rats on that page is the "The Rat Tower (R-690)"

Here is a handy tool for this very purpose :) http://www.rattycorner.com/odds/calc.sht...

Answer 6

i would say about one or two because if you put to many in the cage it will get very unsanitary! DONT PUT A GIRL AND A BOY TOGETHER! becuase they will most likly mate and the girls love to eat there babies! i use to have a male and female rat and she had 5 litters and ate 4 of them!!  

Answer 7

hmmm probably like 20-30 if you used a plunger to pack them in there.

but seriously, that is a terrible cage for any animal, especially a rat. wire flooring is extremely irritating to animals feet (causes a condition called bumble foot in rats, gross open sores) and that cage looks poorly built as well, i cant tell from the pic but it looks like its about 2x2, way to small for even a pair of rats, instead opt for one with plastic removable levels so you can clean them ( look up the brand MY FIRST HOME) they make good cages for a decent price... look at spending about 100 bucks for the cage.

Answer 8

It would comfortably fit 5-6 female rats or 3-4 males.

Answer 9

If they are babies probably 3 - 4 but if they are adults probably 2 - 3. It is a good cage and is a nice size, so if you are thinking about getting it, you should. Rats can get stressed out if they do not have enough room to move around and play in, so be careful.

Answer 10

3-4 rats should fit into this cage :)

Answer 11

That looks like the cage I purchased(thinking it was much bigger), and had to end up using as a quarantine/hospital cage. It looks a lot bigger in the picture, but it will only hold one rat.
