Why we chose it

A house that comes apart in two pieces is far easier to actually clean out than a one-piece hide, which matters with rats given how often their bedding needs changing. Being sized for more than one rat also suits how most people actually keep them, in pairs or small groups.

Full description

Small prey animals want somewhere they can't be seen from above as much as they want somewhere warm, which is what a fully-enclosed house gives them that an open hide doesn't.

The Little Friends Rat / Chinchilla House is a two-part plastic house, in bright blue and grey, that fastens and unfastens easily for cleaning. It measures approximately 31 x 20.5 x 16cm, and the maker says its dark interior helps pets feel safe when sleeping, with room for several rats to fit inside together.
