Garden Retreat by Kathy
Wisteria, sunflowers, birds, and butterflies all help create this beautiful and tranquil Garden Retreat for guinea pigs. This cage is shown both as a two-level cage and as a single-level cage (divided and undivided). There are many detail photos in this album that will be useful no matter what type of theme cage one chooses to make. Information on making "Cubes and Coroplast" cages may be found at: www.cavycages.com
