Our plan is to use worktops as the floors because its wipeable, id be happier using wood but i cant put lino in as all my piggies eat their cages floor @)

I cant see worktops being harmful but its things like plasterboard, plywood, mdf - which i presume are just different types of wood, OH has explained a dozen times but i always forget lol.

So really all id like to know is any materials that are dangerous to my piggies.

I'm also going to have to paint my shed after its been boarded and insulated but i dont know whats safe to use. All ive used so far is pet/plant safe wood treatment but OH has mentioned exterior gloss and exterior paint would be better. Obviously theyd need to be out my shed while it was done and aired but again id like to take no chances.

thanks in advance you fantastic people x x x x x
