Rat Hammocks & Beds

Rats need lots of places to relax, play and hide in their habitat, so adding pet rat beds and hammocks to your cage is a great way to make it more comfortable and inviting. Chewy offers a wide selection of rat hammocks for sale; shop our site for open hammocks, hanging hideouts, tunnels that hang and other cool styles. We've also got some cozy rat beds for sale, including large rat beds that multiple rats can cuddle up in and smaller styles that are perfect for single rats.

The best rat hammocks and beds will be somewhat durable, because rats can be a little rough with their cage accessories and will often use hammocks and even beds for play. Look for machine washable pet rat hammock styles in polyester or nylon with reinforced straps for extra security, or choose a bed made of strong fleece or plush. Pet rat bed and hammock options come in a variety of fabrics, and you can find everything from ultra-soft plush to lightweight poly hammocks and beds to suit every season and personal rat preference.

Most rats love hammocks, and they're a great way to add vertical space to your cage for rest and play. Choose a more enclosed hammock to give your rats privacy for rest, or pick a flatter hammock that your rats can use to jump around and frolic on, too. How you secure the hammock can make a difference, as well. Hammocks and sleep pouches with just one or two straps tend to swing more and work great for rats who like to jump and sway, while those with straps at all corners can be hung to move less, so they can be used as platforms as well as beds.

Hanging rat hideouts and rat tunnels will save floor space in your cage and give your rats fun places to play hide and seek up in the air. You can also hang hammocks at different levels in your rat cages to create a series of play and sleep for your rats to jump to and from. Try putting rat toys in your beds and hammocks, too; they'll add an extra element of fun and adventure to the cool hide and sleep spots you've added to your rat habitats. Chewy has all the rat supplies you need to create a stimulating and restful habitat for your pets.
