Washing my rats fleece

When washing fleece or fabrics for your rat you can also add in vinegar to cut the smells as well.

I am handwashing hammocks now, since i live in an apartment building and the smell can stay trapped in the room downstairs.

I used to use soap, vinegar and cold water, then bring them upstairs to hang around and dry. Fleece dries really really quickly, hammocks a day or 2.

With my fleece I use a small dustpan brush, and brush off the loose crumbs and poops into a big garbage can/bag.

This cage ... I won't be able to remove shelves or anything and no I will remove the poop and just scrub off urine and grease.

Off topic can I just use aspen in his litter box? Is there a material that is easiest to train them with? He poops everywhere right now and its a lot

I prefer pelleted litters in litter pans. They are heavier, and I find that rats prefer them to other litters.
