Baby Proofing: Baby-proofing idea

[pig-in-paradise]

I thought I'd share my idea of baby-proofing the C&C cage here. I know most people use cardboard, but for me and my living room that just looks too nasty.

I bought a large roll (36x60 inches) foamsheet from Michaels (a craft store) and cut it into 10 inch high strips. I stuck the strips between the coroplast and the grids, holding them in place at the top with binder clips.

I think the regular price for the roll is $7, I happened to get it on sale for $5. The cool thing is that when I'm done with it I can either roll it up and save it for next time or use it for other crafts.

Here's a pre-binder clip pic:

I know this thread's over a year old, but I am so glad I stumbled across this pic! I LOVE your setup (colors, fabric, etc.) and realized that I need to baby-proof my cage. Thanks so much for the great idea!!

Did this end up working well? Did you have any problems with the piggies chewing on the craft foam or it not being sturdy enough? I'm getting ready to baby-proof my cage because both of my sows are pregnant, and this looks like an easy way to do it and keep it looking pretty nice.
