Hi we've been having a lot of earthquakes recently and their aftershocks. The animals haven't really reacted to them but the recent Aftershock was strong enough to knock a plant off the window sill. I've been worried about Roo and what would happen if there was a strong one. Do you know any emergency safety tips or how to decrease chances of her cage falling?
 
The only thing I could suggest is to put it on the floor. I am not experienced with earthquakes, thankfully, but it would make sense to me to do that. I would say anchor it to something, but I'm not sure if that would help. It would depend on what it was anchored to.
 
Perhaps you could get one of the ties (similar to what Ikea uses) and attach it to the wall.
