I so Ghetto Fab'd my Boys cage. I got them on short notice, so I "just knew" that I could create a cage as good as my girls's who has the C&C cage.
So I go to Target and get the cubes (in White), put down puppy pads and put the cage on the pads, poured in Aspen Shavings and added Piggies. Well that worked for bout a couple of days and then I went to Home Depot and bought the materials "I thought" I needed to make the most magnificant cage ever.
Yeah right. I buy a piece of plywood (remind me the next time I get a bright idea to take measurements), then I went to the vinyal flooring department and purchased 16 self adhesive vinyal flooring squares. I bring all this home and "assemble". Yeah ok. Its looks like a sicence project that went terribly wrong. The tiles break. What did I expect its cheap and then find out that the plywood is not wide enough for a 2x3 cage. But that doesnt stop me, (most sane people by now would have given up and bought Coroplast---NOT ME). So I take what I have and put the cage on the plywood/tile concoction and add shavings, piggies and all thier getup.
So now I have this huge mess of shavings in my floor! There are more shaving around the cage then IN the cage!!! Why? I forgot to add the borders. So guess what I did? You guessed it. I went onto Ebay and bought the Coroplast. Now I am just waiting for it to be delivered so my boys wont be embarrased to live in a Ghetto Fab home.
So the moral of this story is just to log onto Ebay and buy it the first time.
