Everyone is always talking about their ferret cages (wire cages) and I was simply wondering if anyone ever thought of a wireless cage. My husband and I put our heads together 3 years ago and came up with this type of enclosure for my three guys. We wanted to stay away form wire etc. so we built a pen that is approx. 8' by 12' with 2-2 1/2' high walls. There is a tiny door with a latch, so when I am gone I close it and latch it, but when I am home the ferrets can come and go as they please. They have a two story condo made out of wood, tunnels, carpet/linoleum mix floor, and tons of toys. We have a nice size basement, so we were able to make it so large. Now it doesn't have to be even half that size. A friend of mine lives in an apartment and she built one that is probably a quarter of the size. She built a two story condo and has a linoleum/carpet floor which is great for her because she can clean the floor easily. Her guys love! Anyway, I just thought that I would mention this for anyones interest. Melanie and the gang!(Norman, Gizmo, and Moe) [Posted in FML issue 1982]
