to preface this i unfortunately live in a very small dorm room with my girls so having one of those awesome fridge sized cages for them isn’t possible. while their cage does fit the minimum requirements i always worry about them being bored in it. it’s why they’re allowed to roam the room when i’m there to supervise. however they are stuck in the cage when i have class or even unfortunately for a whole day if i have to return home since i noticed taking them with me seems to only cause more stress. recently i bought a little potted rose plant. the girls were roaming and a few minutes in i caught both of them digging through the pot and pull out the flowers! they actually seemed to be having a lot of fun but i wasn’t sure if it was safe to play with especially since barbara will try and eat anything. so i was wondering, can i give my rats a certain type of dirt to dig and play in? are there a certain type of flower that they can safely munch on? it seems like a fun activity for the girls
