I have two girl rats, and i let them out almost every day to run around in my room. My mom will only let me take them out in my room, but i can tell they have gotten kind of bored of it. I also take them outside on nice days, but... Do you have any ideas of how to make them more entertained when they are in my room???

  1. I would suggest making them a maze, or buying her new toys. Well have fun with your rats...


  2. i have to female chinchillas and what i do is just set up thing for them to climb in and on. and they really like it

  3. ok take 2 shoe boxes and put a whole in both and conect them take and put bedding in both some food take some toys (toilet paper rows will work)  and let it play in there put some treats and other fun stuff

  4. This might help you. (=

  5. Your bedroom is plenty of space for them to come out and run around. What you need to do is find more things to do while they are out. Have you considered training them to perform little tricks? That can keep them busy for a long time while they are out of their cage. It keeps their minds stimulated.

    You can also get them some other things to do, and switch them out every day, so every day they have something "new" to explore.

    You can use all kinds of things. Dig boxes full of dried rice, shredded paper, chemical-free potting soil, or starch packing peanuts. A big bowl of water full of frozen blueberries or peas. You can staple a bunch of cardboard boxes together into a castle and just throw it away when it gets peed on or chewed up. You can stop at your local thrift store and pick up old whicker baskets, wooden wine racks, and old plastic Fisher Price toys. Use your imagination!

  6. Find them little things to play with that they like and they will love it!!! I have a girl rat too and she likes little shinny things like rings.

  7. you can put them in a hamster ball let them run on their wheel take paper towel tubes and let them run through it make them a maze and put a snack at the end of it

  8. put ladders and ropes connecting to all sorts of stuff in your room, and also use your arms lol

    when your mom isnt in let them run up and downstairs they love it!!

    how about hiding treats in your room and letting them find them and the shoe boxes are great too :)
