I need help with caging!

[lydiaapril]

So I got two baby rats (6-9 weeks old) and one got out of the cage. Please help me, what do I house them in now????? it took me forever to retrieve him! I need help ASAP on what to keep them in now! I know the cage is fine to keep them in once they’ve grown but I have no idea what to do for the time being.

get a critter nation cage
or a martins powder coated R695 with flip top lid (martinscages.com)

or cover the outside of your cage with hardware cloth from hardware store

I just ordered a critter nation today and I have a barrier set up around their cage until it comes in.
