mesh cubes

I've been looking at the picts of the cages and I really like the mesh cubes that people have been using.

I have cats who would just love to get their paws on my pigs! I have the Target cubes right now and I had to put coroplast around 3 sides because my cat (Evil Stewie) would wait at the bottom of the cage until he heard the water bottle clinking and would jump and throw his paws through the cage, and hang there. I thought he was going to give the poor piggies a heart attack ambushing them like that!

I know a couple people said they got them from Linens and Things, but I cannot find them on their website. Have they been discontinued? Where else could you find something simiar to this?

Re: mesh cubes

Everything may not be on their website. I found the mesh cubes at Bed Bath and Beyond when I was looking around in the store.

Re: mesh cubes

Linens n things only has grids as seasonal items. You won't find the grids until dorm season. I used them, too, but had to go to Target when I expanded their cage.

Linens N' Things has them on their Canadian site. But I couldn't find anything on the US site.

Re: mesh cubes

You're so lucky! I went and searched the whole store about a month ago and they didn't have any.

Re: mesh cubes

I have those mesh grids, and they are nice. Only problem was that I needed to buy new waterbottles that hang over the top!

I'm not sure if there are Shop-Kos in Texas, but that is were I found mine. They had a large stock with variety of colors, too. If all else fails, I've found some on ebay before.

I have mesh grids and I just put the water bottle spout between the space between the grids from the connectors.

The brand is Organize It. They are in the area of the store where they have other home improvement type things.

Re: mesh cubes

Look by the shelves. I looked by the organization section and couldn't find it. On the way out I stopped by the shelves and found them.
