My watching all her videos even tho I don’t have rats or mice: 👁👄👁

I don't have rats, or have any desire to have them, but I find your rat videos really calming and a bit of an escape from the chaos of life. Hearing someone share their knowledge and passion about animals they obviously deeply love and care for is really relaxing. Thank you for your content! You've made me think of rats in a much more positive light.

Omg Emi, I can't believe you reacted to mine ❤ Just an update, ive moved things round in my room and now the rats have all of my room to run around in, I made a ramp to go from the cage to the floor and I've also now painted the ikea wine rack as a climbing frame as there's no where they can escape! Thanks again ❤😁 xx

I’m getting mice and although this is for rats this gave me a few ideas for my mice free roaming area 🐀🐁

I no joke broke my nail clicking on this

I recommend going into the bird sections of pet shops, they have larger toys such as ladders and branches and they tend to be cheaper as well

My rats flipped there house over THERE CRAZY

When I had rats, I just threw a blanket down on my bed or a couch and let them run around. It's a pretty easy area to let them play on since they can't get into much trouble, and you can put a bunch of boxes and toys up there for playing, and a small travel cage for a litter box. My rattie boys loved playing on my bed, and it was also a good for cuddles too.

i don't have or even want a rat but that doesn't stop me from watching all of your videos about them from start to finish lmao

R.I.P extremely broken laptop, you will be missed 😔

i don't have a free roam area for my two rats yet. For now i just brought them to my bed and let them run around there. This video gave me tons of good ideas!

My rats are like Expensive toys- ignores them Toilet roll tubes and cardboard- OMG MOST EXITING THING EVER

The planted dig box did not last 🤣 I had planted grass and cress seed. Hold my beer - we will add the shelves! Thank you for the lovely review 💓

My girls have a ball pit and love it! They also like to pierce them and try and kick them out of the storage box. 😂

I work fulltime so sadly I went from everyday free roam to only once a week :( I recently just made them a maze for out of cage time and this video gave me a lot more fun ideas!

You are such a good inspiration

The toilet was a failure 😂 I had to add a second in the back left so now they have two. They do go in them but just for good measure they like to poop in the opposite corners 🙄

I sometimes free roam my rats on my deck with an animal fencing to keep them in and they seem to love it!

I use a playpen made from the tutorial by Shadow The Rat. It’s really useful, easy to store and quick to set up. Mine is 4 ‘small’ Home Depot boxes which cost $.99 each. Very cheap and easy.

Okay, I misread this as ‘Reacting to my Viewers’ Rat-Free Roaming Areas’ so I thought you were reacting to their living rooms or something! 😂

It’s the best seeing them run around my room 😂

These are great inspirations! I always create a free roaming area for my grandpas on my couch now because they have their age issues (one even has hind leg paralysis) and are pretty lazy. They get a little maze, boxes filled with different stuff they have to search through for food, things to destroy, a cuddly blanket and they can climb safely. But most of the time, they will just chill and cuddle. Cuddle time with my boys is the best time every day. 🥰

The garfield house is from b&m, it's £4 :)

9:32 Wow I didn’t know that about shoe storage racks! That’s very useful :) Another fantastic video and I’m so glad that you continue to teach others info about proper rat care. This video is very well put together, thank you 💕🐀🐾💖

Wow Emiology thank you so much for using my pictures!❤ And yess, it is willow (:

I couldn't stop laughing when I seen the part with the rat looking through the peaky hole in that piece of clothing. Great video and topic today👍 I also wanted to say, I received your rat paintings in the mail and they are adorable. You did a great job packing/shipping and now I got my very own pictures of "Wispa" and "Humbug". To add to their cute little paintings. Thanks again and keep up the great work your doing.

my rat just died and I don’t know what to do. I knew his quality of life would decrease because of no longer having a cagemate (she passed away in January) but i just wasn’t expecting it to happen so soon. I loved watching your content to prepare for owning rats, I miss them so dearly.

Emi you’ve got to do a mouse version of this next!

I have found that my rats most love the simplest things like cardboard boxes. I really think that all the little houses and stuff are great for them too, but they are more for the benefit of the owners because they look nicer. I have my rats in my art/craft room, which is constantly a mess, so I don’t let them free roam on the floor there. I have the Critter Nation double cage for them, and I placed it inside a closet and took the doors off the closet. When I open the top doors the rats can safely come and go from the cage to the top of the cage and to the shelf in the closet. The cage fits perfectly under the shelf with about three inches between the two, and the rats LOVE to hang out in that space between the cage and the closet shelf, I think because they feel safe and secure in the relatively tight (height-wise) but spacious (area-wise) space. The space on the closet shelf is like a play space, with lots of things to climb on and in/out of, but we still need to add more things. We plan to bolt some interesting shelves and staircases to the walls inside that closet area. We have a lot of hammocks and hanging tunnels that don’t all fit in the cage, so we will figure out how to hang them inside the closet too. I LOVE the idea of designing little spaces made from popsicle sticks!! I will try that! :) :) :)

So much inspiration here! I am so tempted to make a popsicle stick fortress for my rats now. Also, love your t-shirt!

Yesss! I’ve been waiting for the new Emiology video all morning!

Girl keep up the amazing work! I love my mice and rats when i had them but i never found a youtube channel that i cared to watch that discussed them. Thank you for the top notch info and content

Thank god you are here to educate us on rats- I suck at researching on certain topics so you are a big help! 💕💕

I love all of these reacting videos because they're so informative! I learn new things from each one for my own ratties

Making your own snuffle mat is very easy too! I made one myself and all you need is a plastic mat with holes, some fleece fabric, and fabric scissors.

I recently got my rats, so I haven’t gotten around to making a free roam area. Should I work on that.

yess i've been waiting 4 this one :)

I love your channel!!!

This gives me an idea on how I would lime to have one as when we move house next year I can get my dad to build me one in our room ready for my rats ☺️

Love the videos!! If you didn’t make these I wouldn’t know anything about rats! 💖

I love your videos so much! I’ve watched all of your rat videos and they have helped me sooooo much with rat knowledge. I have been giving my parents lots of information about them for the last 4 months, and they said I can get rats! Well, I can get them when we get new house of our own, which will be a little while.. but I’m so happy that I can get them! Your the reason people want to know more about rats, mice ect. 🙃 Thank you so much!

I was really looking forward to this video of yours, it's a really fun topic, thanks for reviewing and giving tips! (: I'm not owning rats yet for a while but I'm slowly getting ready for them, researching, planning and buying stuff, and I just ordered like 300 ping pong balls for a ball pit recently and now you mentioned they don't use yours that much haha noo! I hope they will like it, maybe if I'll scatter around some food in it. :D

yesss i’ve been missing these type of videos :)))

this inspired me to upgrade my rats free roam area. i used to just let them walk around in my room but now i added boxes and i asked my parents to spare carton coffee cans so i can use them as tunnels. i used to do that in our last house, but since we moved i kinda stopped

I’m getting a play pen with a zippible lid ( they can still breath lol) and now I’m so exited to decorate!

Hey! I am the one you reacted to at 13:35!! Just wanted to say that it if you want to create one yourself you need: A hot glue gun (which was around £6 in The Range) Lollipop sticks (Again from the Range I think it was 500 for £1) A pen for decorating This was very easy and fun to make! I suggest you should try it! Eric says hi!

i used to watch this wayyyyyyy before i owned rats and this might be one reason i got them cause i watched your vids

These are such cute ideas!

Early hi I love watching your account to learn about rats because I am going to be getting some soon I have a question are dumbo rats good and do you own that kind?

I don’t have rats but these look similar to my hamsters freeroam area 😂

YAYY IM IN ITT!

So many cool free roam areas!

I'm getting my first boys in a week and am unable to give them a full room but my things don't take up much room and im going to make playpen for them! I've been collecting/making stuff for it from when i decided to get rats, and im so excited!

I clicked on the video right as i saw it 😻 I needed some ideas for free roaming areas for my two new baby girls

Great video!!

This is really helpful! I let them run around a rat proof room but didnt know what to leave them to do....

Eeee I’ve been waiting for a new video!!! When is the Mice Maze video coming out? I keep seeing you talking about it on Instagram. No rush💕😌

I LOVE YOU EMI

I share one room (student apartment) with my two boys so I had to implement their toys in my room in a way it doesn't look too messy. A lot of their stuff is hiding under my bed, sofa, and table for example. Since their cage is on a high bureau I had to build a tower of cartoon boxes so they could move up and down as they want. For that reason, they also have a water bowl, food ball, and toilet also hidden in my room xD

1 view 12 likes, YT is broken!!!! I’m excited to watch the video!

my auntie has rats and she lets them walk around her house and sit on the couch with her/go under the couch but shes not sure if she should get a specific rat room/area with toys and stuff? (she cant use the internet well so i was googling for her and i found this haha)

OMG I LOVE UR VIDS

Thanks so much for the advice I am going to the vet tomorrow ❤

I have a big walk in closet, and I made that the free roam area, it has a huge rat castle made of wood and boxes, the rest of the closet is for them to run in (which is covered in blankets so they don't do their business on the carpet), getting the rats soon and hope they like it

We have got our rats out every day since we got them, but we are staying at my aunt’s house for about 5/6 days in a few weeks, and we are leaving the rats for my grandma to looks after. She will not be able to get them out however; do you think it will be too bad to leave them for a week without a playtime? I am a bit worried, but I think it will be fine because it is only one week of their entire life.

I'm going to get big rats soon. I already set up their cage, it's a two-story ferret cage. I'm planning on getting two male rats, but I don't know how to set up my room as a bit of a free roam space, especially since I already have a free roam bunny in my room. The rest of the rats that I have in my room are just feeder rats, and not to mention the mice! But they aren't in very good enclosures right now. The small rats are in an aquarium. The only other option I had was to put them in something smaller.

I love watching your reacting to your viewers’ rat free roam areas and cages videos. I learned a lot from them and got some new ideas, but I’ve always been wondering one thing. It’s about dig boxes. If you and your viewers use wood shavings and/or soil, how often do you change? I guess it depends on frequency/length of time used by numbers of rats, but I’d like to know. Because it takes a lot of wood shavings/soil to fill the box deep enough for your rats to enjoy and if you have to change weekly, I don’t think I can offer (afford) such box to my rats all the time. I have 3 rattie boys.

WOWWWW THAT ONE AT 12:21 IS SOOOOO COOL!!!!

I’m getting two male rats soon and I already have there cage set up but I’ve never had rats before and I’ve done most of my research here because the videos are entertaining and very helpful. I was stuck on my free roam area so this was really helpful and I would love some more advice! I’m getting them from a breeder, and I was wondering if they would try to run away, during free roam, and if it would scare them to have dogs near by.

I clicked so fast this is the first time in early xx

I use my bath for a free roam area. I put towels on the bottom put some toys and hides and a dig box

i love your shirt 💜

My mom used to free roam our rats on the sofa for playtime, we even had one trained to go from his cage down the hall to the couch (supervised of course) they always stayed on the couch and our cats never bothered them (they were well fed indoor only cats) The only thing I suggest though if you free roam rats on furniture or a bed put a blanket over it to protect it from their pee/poo.

I've had my rats for a while. I used to have them in the walk in shower but they are much bigger now. And all three, is wow! So, I'm really trying to find some things to add to my new play pen I'm making, I need a few more boxes. The carbord ones are much cheaper as long as you can make sure they cant escape !

Hi em! I love your videos so much and I’m getting 2 rats in October and I’m looking for the cage now. Do you think the prevue pet products feisty ferret cage is suitable with adjustments? ❤️🐁🐀

I got four rats. I started with three in a double critter nation but I found out one of them is a girl so I went to the pet shop (one that didn’t support breeding mills) and got another girl, split the double critter nation in half, and split them up by gender. They are adorable! The girls are named Rosie and Daisy, and the boys are named Churro and Remy. I haven’t free roamed them yet though. 😅

My rat has the whole house to roam and he's really never in his cage. But he's the last remaining one at almost 3 years old. He usually ends up in the laundry basket for a nap.

I built my babies a big play area out of heavy duty cardboard boxes and duct tape. And they have tons of fun stuff to play with. I put them in for an hour a day and sit with them in here too. They use me as a climbing frame 😂 looking for more ideas to make fun toys for them!

Yay !! I was so scared to free roam my mice in my room because I thought I’d never find them again lol !! Today I allowed to them run around for the first time !! I did “ free roam “ them before but only in a small cage 70x50 cm and I don’t think they enjoyed it anymore ! Thank you for the video !!

The one dislike is from a cat that couldn't get past one of the freeroam walls

I built my rats a giant maze castle out of a big moving box and pringle can and shipping boxes of all kinds

With all the furniture in my room I think my rats would have a fun exploring 😂

So excited to get rats

My favorite moment with my albino rats was when porridge stole a whole cracker from me and tried to pull into a tunnel it looked so silly as it was such a big cracker compared to him

One day a bunch of small animal KZfaqrs need to come together and create a shop where they teach you proper care and treat their small animals right😅 if only it was that easy....

The Garfield house, is a cat house with a cardboard scratch matt, you can buy them cheap from b&m =3

Thus gave me so many ideas for my new rats I'm getting in 4 days!! I'm getting 4 sister and they will be free Rome for 2 hours and when I get a bigger attachment to there cage and go back to school they will be free Rome for 1 an hour. I just got 7 new mice 6 sisters and 1 brother in his own cage. My 3 sister mice also just died about 2 months ago and i feel like I'm ready for 7 mice and 4 rats

I’ve pondered a few times about the feasibility of making a full rat room as their main enclosure. I’m sure it would need a crazy amount of rat-proofing to keep them from chewing through the walls or getting out through vents or something 😅 Probably not a practical goal

My cages are on the floor so they can climb back in when they need to go. I have a few cages they can go in and out of. I don't block my bed but.....yeah..... I'm definitely going to need to do that. 🤣They seem to be more interested in climbing on me more than any other toy in the room. I'm not complaining because I love their company and love kisses😊

When will you make another reacting to our rat cages video? I really want to send in a picture of my rats cage (:

For anyone who doesn’t have the space for a free roam aria, I take min into the bathroom and let them loose when ever I shower or have to poop lol bathrooms are Usually the safest and easiest to clean up after

i have been waiting ages for your your new video i was wondering if rats can eat hay?

you’ve inspired me to get pet rats. i’m getting 2 very soon ❤️

I love your shirt

They sell those massive bird ladders at Jollyes pet stores!

My rats are so difficult in the sense that they eat everything!! Any zip tie or shower curtain hook I put in they attack within moments and the IKEA tie holders are a wonderful idea.. If they last more than a week with my boys! They're cute though so I can forgive them.

Thank you so much for making Another video

Love rats ❤

(Making sure that they’re safe first) Bird ladders and toys are great for rats!
