Default Re: Cabinet cage!

So me and my grandad finally got started this afternoon. And we've managed to complete the tv cabinet!
I was going to move porridge into it since he began to bar chew. But hes since stopped and hes not going to gain any space by moving into one. Plus he loves to climb on his bars
So maybe i'll be able to persuade my mum to let me have a new ham or two?
A single chinese or a pair of russians maybe?

anyways heres some pics:
the whole thing, with drawers left for storage.


two holes cut out and meshed for ventelation at the back


Top floor, plastic coated wood used for the trays with a hole cut for ramp between floors.


bottom floor


I'm going to order one of these for the ramp: Rat Toys : Trixie Hamster Ladder Natural Wood 18 Rungs 7x27cm : www.EquineCanineFeline.com the place to buy all your Pet Products, Horse Products and Pet Supplies online
and possibly attach hinges to hook the ramp on.

Its such a great space, measuring 37 x 55 cm on both floors.

I'm so proud and thankful to my kind grandad, with all his D.I.Y skills.

I'll have to take a pet shop visit and find the cutest ham ever!
Them plant my feet in the ground and refuse to move
It might just work.

indeed! Got to get the ramp sorted first though

Oh and the doors aren't as heavy as i first thought, so they could be pushed open, any ideas how to solve this?

Yep! Magnets like you get on some cupboard doors. you fix one bit to the inside and the other to the inside of the door and it holds it shut. Sorry, do yuo know what I'm on about!? thats a rubbish explaination!
