The Rat Room

I have been waiting for a rat room for a very long time. Finally my oldest son is moving out. He’s going into residence at Laurentian University leaving me with an empty room. We are slowly fixing it up, making it perfect for the rats. I chose a slate grey green colour for the walls. I’ve added a big flat ball type thing for a light, which gives off a lot of light so the darker colour paint and flooring will work out nicely. The floor is a walnut oak laminate wood. I’ll soon be adding a thick baseboard and new curtains as well. The first week of September will be rat move in day. I need to get all my stuff done by then and it would be great if I have the Rory and Gera group living together by then too. But still not holding my breath on that last one.

Here’s the room before:

And so far with the new paint and flooring:
