Description
A hammock is one of rats’ favourite cage fittings: it adds a raised bed without taking floor space, and one per level is common. This one is a double hammock: two layers of soft velvet on top of each other, forming a pocket the animal can slip into to sleep sheltered, or a platform to lie on.
It hangs from the bars by four clips at the corners. Two sizes: 20 × 20 cm for small rodents (hamster, mouse, gerbil) and 34 × 34 cm for larger animals — the supplier mentions rats, squirrels, ferrets and chinchillas. For a group of adult rats, choose 34 cm.
Good to know: fabric gets chewed, like any textile hammock; remove it if it is shredded with loose threads. The supplier does not document washing: hand washing in lukewarm water is the safest option. Colour depends on the pattern chosen.

Frequently asked questions
