Cageful of smelly rats

Then I will. It'll make me late for work - and why I should have to carry a cageful of smelly rats!-- But I'll take them.

The above is from my son's reading book: the battle of bubble and squeak.

How do we confirm whether the word "cageful" is a noun or an adjective in this sentence?

There is an indefinite article before it. So it's a noun. CB
