This site has been so helpful to our family! Our GP's have been in their C&C cage for about 8 weeks now and I have a few questions, please:
1) they have nibbled away at the coroplast around their water bottle. Is that a health problem????
2) I have one whole side (short side) of the cage set aside as a litter area with two litter boxes taking up the entire side. Is it normal for them to make in other areas of the cage as well? They seem to make sort of....all over. They even move their food dish to pee and poop back there. I would rather not buy anything else for a while, so I'm hoping the answer is not to buy a heavier food dish (but I'll consider it, if that's the best thing). They do make a lot in the litter boxes, too, and, in their smaller cage, that side was the one they had chosen to use to make in, so it seems like I have the litter boxes in the right place.
Thanks so much for the help!
