Online camera

RATZENET.de enables to watch rats in their cage online. Most of the time they sleep but I managed to see them a little bit more active. Don't be dissapointed if you don't see anything for the first time and try again later, some lazybones definitely come up:) The owner states on the website that the feeding time is 10 p.m., so at that time there could be more activity.
