Cat-Proof Theme Cages by Kathy
Many times guinea pigs need to be enclosed in a habitat that protects them from household pets or rambunctious children. The photos in this album show examples of secure, covered theme cages. Please see the various theme-cage albums for detailed photos of the cages pictured in this album. Please note, all photos featuring a cat are staged photos for the album. The cats could hardly wait to get off the cage! Information on making "Cubes and Coroplast" cages may be found at: www.cavycages.com
