Nope, I saw that someone had mentioned them for cages, and I looked at their website and sure enough, they are only 15 minutes from me. I picked up my cage about 30 minutes ago.

Holy moly! Did they build it for you, or is it off the shelf? What size tank is that?
Now you need some hammocks, cardboard boxes, couple of old t-shirts, more rats, maybe another water bottle...
Uhhh, I hope those speakers aren't *too* loud!
Are the two guys getting along OK?

It seesm Christy was answering as I was asking
One piece of advice, if you haven't already--get a couple of spare handles. Not only will you have some handy should you lose one, it also makes it a lot easier to move that sucker around (I put one on each side and pick up the cage that way).

lol...we do not use that stereo, so they will not be blasted out with the music. I'm worried about the new guy though, he seems to be sneezing (No discharge, and his eyes look fine). I read in some of the other posts that sneezing is normal when you first get them???? they are getting along great! They have been sleeping together in their box. The only thing I do not like about a topper is you have to take it off to get to the aquarium. Can be very tricky!!! lol

About the sneezy ratty: I would just keep an eye on him, if he begins to develope other symptoms or if you hear rattling in his chest I would take him to the vets.
And BTW, AWESOME cage!
