"I know this is made for birds, but I tried it out for my two rats. I must say they loved this ladder since they both love to climb and hang from things, the only thing I had a problem with is my oldest girl decided to chew through it and I had the rungs laying on one side of the cage and the rope on the other. lol But overall I could not complain I mean it was 2 bucks and they enjoyed it while it lasted. If they wouldn't chew it would be perfect. lol I would recommend this to anyone who has a bird or a rat just be warned the rats will chew it up. But hey spending 2 bucks is better then 10 on something that only lasts a few days."
