I'm about to adopt two little girl rats soon and I'm getting a single-level critter nation cage, which looks great.
I have been reading that the pan is a bit shallow, which concerns me. And then I am looking online and I see these videos and pics of these lovely CN cages lined with fleece on the floors and it looks wonderful and clean but I don't understand where the ratties are going to the bathroom? Do they just go on the fleece and you wash it every couple of days? What is the difference between this and using bedding? Would you use bedding in the tray even if it is shallow like it appears in the photos? I am a little confused about this.
Sorry for the all questions! I would love to be able to use less bedding somehow and make it work.
Thanks!
