No, rats prefer a soft surface to sleep on. It would be more comfortable for Caesar to sleep in hay, shredded paper, or wood chips. They also like to hide when they sleep, so I would give him a paper tube to sleep in or a plastic house.

Mice make very fun little pets! You will want to use a bedding substrate that is dust free. I recommend Care Fresh. It will need to be changed about once weekly. They love the have the little wheels to run in and most of them enjoy another mouse for company. You can give them a sock to make a nest out of but it should not be the primary bedding. In general you will not need an additional heat source as long as the house is warm. Keep the cage away from drafty windows and in a warm room. Mice also like to have toilet paper tubes and boxes to play and hide in. Make sure as well that you are feeding an appropriate diet meant for mice. Let me know if you have any other questions!

Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Rabbits sometimes do this behavior when they are scared or as a form of play. If Louie is not acting like himself, I recommend having him seen by a vet as soon as possible. If he has resumed normal behavior, you can monitor him at home to make sure he continues eating, drinking, and having normal bowel movements. I recommend filming the behavior of you are able to in case Louie continues doing it and I would be happy to take a look.

I think it is important to do what you think is safest. I would make sure to have areas that Leny can hide and feel safe in his enclosure. However if you are nervous he will get stuck or injured blocking this area is best
