To Dave re: Ideas for a Cage Setup?
Hi Dave -
I have a cage like the one you're describing. Typically called a
"queen pen" in the cat world. I paid about $140 for mine. Many
of the pet supply catalogs carry those. Mine came with 2 carpeted
shelf pieces with hooks on the ends to attach them to the cage.
I have put those together to make one half level with a ramp from
the bottom up to here. Then I built another floor out of plywood
and covered it with linoleum. This is nearly a solid floor - except
for a hole in one end so they can climb up to it. Above that is
another half floor which I added latter. Then their hammock is
hanging near that floor - opposite side of the cage. I put their
litter box on the bottom under the first half floor - and hang a
water bottle and food bowls from the other side. I keep 3 kids
in this cage.
This cage was the best move I ever made. The rollers allow it to
be easily moved (for vacuuming and such), and being collapsable makes
it easy for me to take with me when we travel. Since I have it
sort of divided like I do with that one nearly solid floor in the
middle - the two doors make it easy for me to get to the kids.
I do like your idea about the hose in there, though!
Hope this helps....
