After many months of problems (such as where to get supplies and how to do this and that) I have finally finished Butterscotch's C & C cage! Her cage is in my room. After a while a figured out how to post pictures (thanks to some useful threads).
The Cage:
My baby's cage is a 2 x 4. I made it big enough so I could get Butterscotch a friend. I used zip ties, coroplast, and cubes (of course). I also made a big storage space underneath the cage.
The Bedding:
For the bedding I used fleece on top and sewed a bunch of cloth diapers together for the bottom. I connected the fleece and diapers together with saftey pins so that I could un-hook them and make it easier to wash. To keep the fleece and diapers down I put velcro on the bottom layer and on the coroplast.
The Kitchen:
At first I taped two little litter pans together with tape on the underside and cut a huge hole in the middle. But then it became to messy because Butterscotch kept dragging out the Aspen. So I bought a big litter pan and trimmed down the top just enough so that the fiddle sticks could fit on it and be used as a ramp.
Here's a picture of the old set-up (I will have more pictures soon. And I hope this works. This is the first time I have attempted to attach a photo.)
