may the piggie gods be with you 

Unfortunatly my grandfather refuses to cut the sides tonight so I have to wait until the morning. I couldn't even guilt-trip him with the: "But graaannndppa.. its going to my birthday tomorrow".

So.. its put together but still needs to be cut and bolted together.

Currently:



ETA:

I can't just not add the sides- I wont be able to add the shelves.

She did, actually- I saw the pictures. My Grandpa said he can saw it so that we can put it back together- if need be, in the future. It wont be as perfect but still useable (seperate or together).

If there was another way, I would do it. Honestly I would much rather have the sides sawed off then not be able to use the doors. That was one of the main reasons I got the cage!

I have no idea what he is going to do.. honestly. He said he could do it so we could put it together again (cable ties).. Im not sure.

Anyway.. If nothing else I could just use mesh to create the missing side. I know I will eventually want to use these cages for loads of ratties in my own rescue. Years and Years from now, probably.

lmao, yeah, I saw that. Couldn't find the saw, right?

I got this entire idea based off your thread.  Thank you!

30mins until its officially my birthday. I should be sleeping. Oh well.

This is me --> 

  Happy Birthday, Wickedrodent!   Any new cage progress?

That looks like quite a project! It will be awesome when it's done!

It's amazing how versatile FNs are. I've seen they work well for chinchillas too.

    Looking good, Wickedrodent!   My piggies are seriously jealous now...and are eyeing my ratties FN with much deviousness! 

Thanks guys! 

The problem with the middle ramp is the way the entire thing is placed in the cage. The piggies have backs that are totally different than ratties and it makes it hard for them to swing their bodies around to go down a ramp.

Im thinking about making a mini-mini-shelf RIGHT under that top main level so they can *hopefully* hop up and down and then go down the ramp. Maybe.

Alright.. im off to go buy bolts, ill be back with new pictures later!

That looks amazing! I can't wait to see it with the piggies in it. I don't have any suggestions about that ramp though..

I love it!  Very nicely done 

lol, yeah. Unfortunatly, I am out of those as well. I ended up using twisty ties and a ribbon to attach the barrier and side to the ramps. So far its working..

Update on Ramps: Daphne (top level) has been going up and down fine, So has Do (bottom level). Delilah will go down the ramps, Im not sure about up, yet. Divinci will probably never go up or down, hes a lazy boy. 

Mini: Sorry, didn't see your question until now. The main framework (side) has three holes on each side. The levels have hooks that they attach into. I will try and get a picture later.
