About this piece

A pair of mushroom rat cage shelves for adding two climbing ledges to a woodland-themed cage.

Mount the two shelves at matching or staggered heights to break up open vertical space and create extra places for climbing and perching. Each pair shares the same mushroom theme but is individually hand-finished, so small differences are normal.

Included: two mushroom rat shelves and metal cage fittings

Approximate size: each shelf is 25 cm wide x 13 cm high x 5 cm deep

Use: indoor rat cages with standard wire bars

Production: Handmade to order in Cumbria. Dispatched in around 7 working days.

Before you order

Check the available cage space, bar spacing and intended shelf positions. The two shelves mount independently, so they can be placed together or staggered to suit your cage layout.

Care and safety

Wipe with a damp cloth and allow the shelves to dry fully before returning them to the cage. Do not submerge or pressure-wash. Check all fittings and shelf edges during normal cage cleans; remove a shelf if it becomes damaged, rough or heavily chewed.

Delivery: Free UK shipping. Tracked international shipping is available at checkout.

Standard unused items can be returned within 14 days of delivery in their original condition.

How it fixes: a headless bolt screws into a threaded metal insert in the piece, goes through the cage and is held on the outside with washers and a wing nut, so it tightens by hand. Fits cage bars up to about 2.5 cm (1 in).

Common questions

What is included?

Two mushroom-shaped rat cage shelves and the metal fittings needed to attach them to standard wire bars.

How large are the shelves?

Each shelf is approximately 25 cm wide x 13 cm high x 5 cm deep.

Are both shelves identical?

They share the same mushroom theme and are made as a coordinated pair, but each is individually hand-finished so small differences are normal.

Can I mount them at different heights?

Yes. The two shelves mount independently, so they can be staggered to create a climbing route that suits your cage.

How do I clean them?

Wipe with a damp cloth and allow them to dry fully before returning them to the cage. Do not submerge or pressure-wash.

How long do they take to make?

They are handmade to order in 7 working days. Free UK shipping and tracked international shipping are available at checkout.
