Hello, I have 4 fuzzbutts that are a real joy in my life. I did some research on cages and decided on the 'Townhouse' by Martin's Cages. I purchased the black vinyl because it's easy to clean and looks fine in the living room. The vinyl is also easier on the furkid's toes. I fit pieces of vinyl flooring and carpet on the cage floors (carpet for the lounging and sleep areas ... vinyl for the eating and, of course, pooping places). The tray on the bottom makes clean up easy without disturbing the little kings and queens. I've had it for about 2 years now and it's held up just fine. When it need a washing, I just take it outside and hose it down. I recently purchased a smaller cage . This cage sits inside the tray. The slide-out tray of the larger cage is definitely and advantage at clean-up time. Hope this helps. Angela and the Angels Mocha 'Let me out of this jail NOW!'
