Ah awesome! Do you have a photo of the set-up by any chance? I’m trying to visualise how I can fit a long cage on the Kallax 4x2, when it may be a bit wider, and I’m struggling :’)

I've got 2 now but I did have 5. I just had the cages all stacked and side by side. Nobody ever seemed bothered by the others scent, but I did put a barrier inbetween the cages that were next to each other. Can easily do this with some thick cardboard, just so they can't get to each other through the bars.
Now I've only got 2 I've just got one on top of the other. A barney cage with an Alaska cage on top. They're both male syrians and I don't wash my hands between handling them and I've never been bitten.

Ah awesome, it's a shame I'm after a cage with bars just on top, as I obviously couldn't stack!

You can stack them if they have a front opening door like the Alaska

Here's my setup that you asked about dear. Hope this clears up some of your questions about putting multiples on top of the Kallax.
