    You can also buy the shower curtain liner at the dollar store. Or $3 at Walmart or Target. When buying the grids, make sure each grid has 9 little squares going across each grid, not 8.

    So happy they're getting along! Make sure cage is large enough for two if you want them to stay together. Good luck!

    She may come around once she trusts you. She should only have 1/8 cup of pellets a day. She should have unlimited hay. Good luck!

    Cleaning which would be easier to keep clean and maintain?

    I use fleece over wood pellets for kitchen. Once in a while I use potty pads too. Hay is an ongoing problem! Every morning I shake my kitchen fleece off outside. Then flip it over to other side if need be.
