Re: Coroplast

I built it today, and its a 2x4, with two 2x1 lofts, I haven't made ramps yet, I made two hidey's with grids, and covered them with an old purple fleece blanket. Here's a picture of the cage so far:

So what do you think? Also, we have three kittens, and do you think its high enough up that they wouldn't be able to get into the cage?

Re: Coroplast

Coroplast is waterproof, and you put that down in the cage, and then put down an absorbent layer (puppy pads, old towels, etc.), and then use fleece on top or instead of using an absorbent layer you can just use bedding. It's basically like cardboard made out of plastic.

Re: Coroplast

One more thing, I had been trying to make a ramp with bent grids, and every time I try to bend it one side snaps...? And the one I did manage to bend without snapping, wasn't shaped right!

Ignore this, someone asked what coroplast is, and she kept deleting her post.

Also, I am deffinatly(sp?), putting grids on top for a lid, because lo and behold I walked into my bedroom after I got off the computer last night, and guess who had just dropped down into the cage? That's right, the kitty ringleader!
