A couple of days ago I could smell this horrible smell coming from one of my rat cages. I have never smelt urine like this before. It made me want to vomit. It was rotten and stale smelling.I clean the cages very regularly. At the most every 3 days. The smell was coming from a group of 4 rats. Their fabric bedding smelt so bad I threw it outside on the grass to get away from it. The poor things having to put up with it in their home The smell was also present in my bathroom after they free ranged in there.
After cleaning the cage thoroughly the smell soon returned. I think one of them must have something going on.
In the cage is genevieve a 2years 8 months female, beckie 1.5 years female,archibald,1.5years desexed male,and vivienne approx 6 month old female.
What could this smell be? Anyone? I'm seeing the vet tonight so i'll ask her too of course. I was just wondering if anyone has any experience with this?
Thanks in advance,kristen
