I have two female fancys o mine they love it, its perfect could easily hold up to two more maybe even more but you'll love it AND so will they trust me..

Yes!!! As a former breeder of rats, this cage would be perfect for them!! The space is great and there's no possible way for them to bite thru the steel bars.

I agree with J. Cook. Not nearly big enough with the exception of a baby rat.Works very well for mice as other reviews save one (overweight mice comment) say.Perhaps their overweight mice are really rats?!!!

I would think so, we are using ours for a guinea pig which is full grown and oh may he is all over the place. Got really strong also.

I would say no to a large rat, but a hampster size one will, we have a large hampster that fits through fine

No. It is way too small and the fencing is way to short. Better for smaller rodents. I do think they make a larger size.

I bought it for sugar gliders, but the spacing was too wide. Bigger rodents would be fine like a ferret or chinchilla.

In theory yes, but I wouldn't recommend it. This cage is best suited to rats. Ferrets do better with more space and in pairs as they are very social and like to play and cuddle together.

I think they would like it . It is about the same size coconut you would buy in the store so you could easily lay it in the cage or find a way to hang it if you think the opening has to face up , then you might want to drill acouple holes in it for some drainage if the rat goes to the bathroom in his little house . the opening is about 3 inches across . You could probably even fit som nesting material in it for your little friend . Hope thus helps you .

Yes, this works for Rats, according to our previous experience, but we caught small Rats only ( not longer than 4 inches )

It's fine for one rat. But rats are social, and we have a mama and her two daughters. The cage is too small for three grown rats. It is chew proof though.

Did not use it for this purpose... Only used outdoors for rabbits... Don't know how it would work for rats.

Sorry, never had rats, and don't know if it would work on them or not. Maybe contact manufacturer

I have had several rats over the years and I would definitely recommend a bigger enclosure if they are more than a few months old or an older rat that needs smaller space to help getting around. Rats are very active and need quite a bit of space. If you are looking for a bigger enclosure I would recommend the petco rat manor habitat. They go on sale a lot, either here or on petco's webpage/store so its not that much more and way better. Warning though, as the cage ages the wire can pop up and be a little sharp, but its easy to fix, just bend down and put a small blanket on the wire and you are good to go.

It is very small for a rat. I bought this for my syrian hamster, and its almost to small for him. Rats need multi level cages. The bigger the better for them.

Probably if there small. But not for a long road tirp. I'm not sure how big baby rats are. But it can hold a small Guinea pig for a small trip to the vet. If that helps with comparison.

Probably. I returned the item because it was poorly made and one of my ratties received a large cut that required stitches from a wire on the cage. I think you are better off going to Petsmart and looking at their selection of cages. The lower prices here (for me) are not worth my rats' safety.

I believe it would be fine for a ferret of that age, but I probably wouldn't use it for a full grown ferret. I have four rats in mine comfortably. The cage is easy to clean and maintain, my only complaint are that the bars are a little weak. I broke one loose just picking up the cage. Hope this helps
