Having to be out of apartment for almost full day

[CaptianBookLover899]

Hello!
I am having my tub resurfaced in my apartment and will need to vacate the apartment for most of the day and so will my three girl rats. I just adopted them a couple days ago and the resurfacing will be happening on the 21st. I am planning on taking their whole cage to my boyfriends moms house and putting them in the guest bedroom. His mom has a cat but she will not be able to get into the bedroom.
I am worried that this will be too stressful for them but I don’t have any other options that I can think of. If anyone has any recommendations it would be really helpful.
Thank you!

I wouldn't worry too much, especially if you are taking the whole cage with you. I've taken my girls to my grandmas house and they didn't have any problems.
Give them a few hours to get used to the new room and a few treats to associate the new experience with something positive
