Pet Rats
3 Answers
Is it safe for my pet rats to play in the garden (on a nice day) in one of those rabbit/guinea pig runs? I thought it might be nice for them to get some fresh hair etc, but wondered if there were any potential reasons why not, from more experienced rat owners? I wouldnt leave them alone, so no cats or dogs could get to them.

Also bear in mind that there will be wild rats about, perhaps with ratty diseases and nasty big teeth.
