Answers:
Defiantly not . It is tall but rats need floor space. The longer and wider the better. My rats are in a rabbit cage now. The bars are wide but because they have grown so much they can not get out. You need your cage to have different levels which are flat, not wires or they can get bumble foot. Have a a hammock in the cage which they love to cuddle up in. It is approx 3ft by 2ft.
Definately not. Rats are a lot larger than hamsters. If a cage says it can be used to mice then you know it is too small for rats. Multiple levels is a great idea though.
Defiently Yes it is and the bigger the better!
How big are they I would say it would be good if they were from 3-5 inches.
Kinda tight but I guess it'll work for two. Rats are larger. and the wheel would be useless to the rats. I would get something else but if you like it alot it'll work.
No. that is toooooo small. And, it has wire ramps and balcony things. The house is to small, no rat would fit into it. The floor space is not enough for two or even one, to live comfortably.
I hope that you find a good cage for them.
It looks big because of the picture, but inreal life it isn't. That is too small for 2 female rats. As the first person to answer stated above, rats are way bigger than hamsters.
NO NO NO rats need a bigger cage than that!
Try asking your localpet store what sizeof cage you need!
WAY TO SMALL for one rat never mind two.
No! Thst cage would not be good for 2 female rats!
They can get pretty big!
