I'm so excited. It's currently being sectioned off and will be ready for pigs very soon indeed!
 
I got it from Dabners pets online, bought yesterday and here today at 7.30am. VERY quick service. I had it on order from Seapets but they are quite slow and I needed to have only one cage rather than bessie and gypsy in one and mork in another.

It's extremely well made and once they can all live in it without partitions it's going to be fitted with a proper upstairs and stuff but for now it will do sectioned into 2 partitions.

Just waiting on hubby to finish the partition and I can get furnishing.
 
Fantastic. Looking forward to seeing the pictures. I really wanted one of those but it wouldn't fit however we tried rearranging the furniture!

I found Seapets a bit rubbish too. I've rung them a few times to check things on their website are actually in stock and they never are, AND they're never sure when stuff is coming in!
 
Yes it dominated the kitchen and the old one looks so puny.

I have cancelled 2 orders from sea pets as they didn't know when it would be sent or even if it was in stock. Dabners were so amazing on the phone and the delivery was so fast.
 
I was stunned then because I thought you said you had 150 rabbits! Until I actually read your post.... lol
 
Okay all settled and happy. I had to nip out and get a hayrack as it comes with one of those outside the cage ones but it's so long I don't want to make it even longer.

It's so much wider too. It comes with an upstairs too but the upstairs is grid so no good as it is. I am going to line it with correx and re-do the ramp totally so eventually they will have a massive upstairs section too.

I have taken some photos but I am supposed to be half way through my housework by now and instead my house is really untidy, hay all over the floor and no housework done at all.

Better do that first and post photos later I think! All i want to do is play piggies all day, not this housework lark - that's for suckers!
 
NO no. Leave the housework and post the pics please. Thats more important! Very interested to see the new cage. It sounds ideal for my girls. Soo tempted...

Click to expand...

She makes a good point. Get your priorities right please! And everyone knows a nice thick layer of dust protects your furniture!
 
Lisaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

We want pics! We want pics... We want pics, we want pics, I need to have something to look at in work :)!

Please..:)p
 
Sorry I plead temporary insanity!

Housework all done, kids fed. I am off to upload some pics to photobucket - back soon :(|)

It's so so big I am pleased my kitchen is so big as otherwise there would be no chance of it fitting.

It's 75cm wide!

Anyway here's another poor photo of the cheeky chap that sparked it all off

Right visitors here any minute!
 
Oooooooooo....... Lovely! x), He certainly looks like a cheeky chap bet he can't wait to get in with his wifeys!
 
The cage looks fab. The piggies will love their new home. I'm away to measure up my room and see if i can fit one in..

(ps- got my hay delivered. Thanks)
 
Cool glad it came in good time.

I have to say the cage is solid, really really strong and there is so much scope for making the second floor huge. All guineas are happy in it too - no rumbling or being unsettled. I'm pleased!
 
Your cage looks lovely,wish I had seen one of those before I got my cage! Your little man looks so cute. :)
 
That's an amazing cage.

You can make a second floor, though?
How o.o
I am totally interested :(|)
 
Here is my old cage

The upstairs are mesh grids left over from our monster C&C and leftover correx from that project too. All held in place with cable ties. The ramp is covered in shed roofing felt stuff.

This cage came with a HUGE upstairs space that clips onto the bars, but the floor is mesh and it's for rabbits and the ramp is steep. So we are covering the floor in correx and removing the existing ramp and adding a less steep one made from correx and roofing material or vet bed.
 
Then all food stuffs will go upstairs, bowls, hay, parsley bells. Then downstairs can be sleeping, running, popcorning space and upstairs feeding.

Sorry for the 2 messages but my keyboard stopped working half way through.
 
it's huge:))

I don't know if I would have room:( for something that size! Do you have a link so I can look at measurements?
 
How many piggies have you housed in it?
Do you have a picture of your c&c?

That is piggy palace :(|)
