Pet Forum / Mammals / Rats / June 2006What's the difference between a litter tray and a bed?
Tar has decided they are both for sleeping in :-) I found litter trays on ebay last night with an added grill and ordered two............reason being.... Tar who hates water has decided the litter trays make great beds despite having plastic houses, sleep tunnels and various other in their cage. When the new trays arrive I will swap them over and then do the unthinkable...............Bath Art and Tar. > Tar has decided they are both for sleeping in :-) > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > When the new trays arrive I will swap them over and then do the > unthinkable...............Bath Art and Tar.

Yes they do tend to do that at times, lol! I found my ratties used to sleep in the litter trays when the weather was hot, probably cos it felt cooler in there than their hammocks or houses.

The ladies will perch on the edge and bathe themselves. I'll have to try to get a picture. Julia and The Mischief Makers > I've been adding a bowl of water to the cage during the day.
