Kaytee Lava Ledge (3 Ledges)

They filed down my rats nails so they aren’t tearing up my arms all the time. Worth the money

DONT get this. if you want the same amount same brand and stuff just buy 3 singles. 3 singles is 15 dollars and this is 18 dollars. rip off.

Let me start with saying if I could give negative stars to this product, I would. Ive seen these ledges in thousands of pictures of rat/guinea pig/chinchilla cages, and have heard many owners sing praises of the ones they have, saying they last 5+ years in cages. Apparently Kaytee changed how these were manufactured sometime around 2017, and now the product is nothing you would EVER want to stick in a small animal cage. They reek. Not with the mild sulphurous smell that natural pumice has. No, this smells like it had the unfortunate fate of being buried in your 110 year old great grandmas dresser that no one has dared to open in a decade, mostly because theyre scared to deal with whats trying to live inside it, and that they years ago tried to gas the dreaded thing to death by burying it in mothballs and locking it away in a basement somewhere, wrapped up so tight that the scary thing cant escape its inevitable death. They might as well have marinated these ledges in mothball solution during their creation because the whole brick of synthetic pumice oozes out that foul greasy odor. I first thought it was the paint, and tried to rub/scrub it off, but no, when one of these crumbled in my hand during the cleaning process it became all too clear that the whole ledge is tainted with this noxious malodorous chemical. Added bonus was finding out that they wont hold up to scrubbing pee/poop off them! The toxicity these ledges leach could quickly fill an enclosed cage, putting small animals at risk of all sorts of medical issues, and I shudder to think of what they would do to the digestive systems of an animal if they were to be so noseblind as to actually chew on these things. Add in the real possibility of them just crumbling under an animal and falling to the bottom of the cage, and I would urge anyone to just go build a platform with some poplar wood, bolts, washers, and wingnuts instead. The pretty colors in your photo worthy cage arent worth your pets health and safety. Complete waste of money, and shame on Kaytee for putting their dollars before the safety of their products.

Just what you need! Seems a little weak but overall could hold a rat! Sad you can’t choose color although not a problem for myself.

We have a three legged rescued chinchilla...My wifes second-grade class named him (cause he is missing a leg in case it wasnt obvious)...The lava shelves are great to help keep his teeth at a safe level...

They nibbled them the first day and they dont use them that much so they can file their nails down, but they like climbing on them so thats nice xD

Are used this product in my rat cage. The lava ledge is a great size, but there is only one screw on the back for mounting, so it makes the ledge a little wobbly. No matter how hard you tighten it, the ledge can still be turned with some force. Haven’t had any hurt rats yet, but I wish it was a little more sturdy.

I ordered the three ledges and thought they would all be yellow but I received a pink, blue and yellow. YAY!! Love that they were different colors! Nice surprise. My two rats climb on them all the time and started chewing at them. I can see that these will last a LONG time!

They keep my rats nails fairly dull.
