Connected the cages

... about time! What took so long??? Wheek! [Joined the two shelving unit cages this past week to create one that is a little less than 2' x 7.5'. I used three grids to create a ramp in each cage with a platform to connect the two acrylic bases. The plus is that due to the six-inch height of the acrylic base sides there is a sleeping area underneath each ramp. The platform is secured to the cage sides; each ramp may be lifted up to access the area to retrieve a guinea pig or clean the area. At first the ramp was covered with a pad but tonight I used fleece. The other two cages will be joined in two weeks after Izzy is placed and Charlie's wait is up after his neuter.]
