I know about every person asks this- but I was hoping to get some advice due to my home's environment for my little guy. Different scenarios can change a lot.
Ok... on our last stage of finally giving Kiah the care he deserves (from all my learning on here :thumbsup: ), I can now use my new job paychecks (woo) for a new cage. So I am open to spend the necessary amount for a REAL cage. For those who may not remember, Kiah has been in a temp/converted ferret cage that's 24 X 24 after realizing the true problems of the metal-bottom cage Kiah's breeder gave me. So he needs some more space.
Here's the enviroment- we're in Illinois, so it's still a bit cold. We've been using a space heater since Kiah attempted to hibernate in November. I could go out and get a ceramic heater (depending on the cage) but that's what we have right now. Also, our apartment is rather small- and I'd rather not have Kiah's cage on the floor- would a C & C cage help if we structured it to be of the ground to the exact size/shape we want or other ideas? Lastly, we have liners (thanks to nancy) that is 24 X 24... maybe a little bigger... so I guess that affects things (though I don't mind order more liners to give Nancy business- hehe. Oh and easier access as always my short arms can only dive so far from the top of Kiah's temp cage.
Oh... I did forget something. Some may know of my jokes when it comes to Kiah's outhouse. Well he doesn't use it anymore since we got the liner *grumble*... and the thing take up about 10 X 5 inches of the cage- should I just try to move on to a corner litter pan? I don't think I could fit something under his Silent Saucer....
whew. I think that's it. Sorry I haven't been on here lately.... crazy new job has been eating away my life. And I know about everyone get's asked this question on here- but I couldn't help it. After writing all this out, I'm guessing a C & C cage would be the best bet- but I would really like suggestions. A lot in one entry- I really appreciate any help and will do whatever I can to help my little guy.... maybe with a new cage, he'll be less of a punk...
