12 Close-up of the "loft" (2 grids in an "L" shape)attached to the back and side walls of the cage using cable ties
13 The ramp is made from a 16" ferret ramp (by Super Pet) which was cable-tied to the upper level grid.
14 The upper level was lowered, and the bottom of the ramp is resting on a brick so the angle will not be too steep for the guinea pigs to climb.
15 The upper level is made of 2 grids connected together as an "L" and then cable-tied to the back and side walls. It is very secure. “What are the blue things in the pict...” –Janet
