I had the pleasure of adopting a toffee coloured Syrian, Miss Amber, back in January, and shes been happily living in a large Olaf 3 cage since. My intention has always been to build a DIY cage out of one of the kallax ikea units, having seen some wonderful examples all over this forum and around the Internet! Since getting Miss Amber, I've also adopted a gorgeous salt and pepper Russian Dwarf - Pepper!

So finally after ten months of planning out and saving up, I'm beginning my DIY build, and I'd like you to come along for the ride!

My plans originally were for a 4x2 Kallax unit, where two end spaces were for storage, and the remaining 6 spaces were Miss Ambers living quarters. Now, I'm actually going to be using a 4x3 unit, and either Amber gets a 3x3 cage, or she still gets a 3x2 cage and Pepper gets a 3x1 loft space! (pictures attached to show my ideas!) Bearing in mind one floor would be about 38.5msq, this would mean Amber gets 77msq - more than double the recommended size of 30msq! Plus I'll be adding in some shelves and levels to add to the space they can climb about on.

I'd love to know what you think so far and any suggestions, and I'll try and post as much as possible with every step!

Thanks for reading! Xx
