Moose & Capy's C&C Cage

[MishImpossible]

Capy's a little unsure of all the space

Moose is wondering what's going on

First try of the ramp! Well done

Capy seems a little cautious but hopefully they'll both get used to it

That is really nice fleece. Where did you get it from?

Thanks It was a cage liner made by Cosy Cavies http://www.cosycavies.co.uk/shop/

I think it makes them look like they're in a disco cage in the 70s

Ha ha yes it does!

They seem quite happy in their new cage but seem a bit tentative on the ramp. I think I may relocate the food downstairs until they get a bit braver

I'd keep the food up there, my pigs were nervous at first but food is the way forward for piggies, they'll do anything for it ! If they look a little unsteady try popping something under the ramp to make it less steep, like the wooden bridges and bend it to shape ! Not even a ramp will get in the way of a pig and it's food !
The more they use it, the quicker they'll get used to it (:

Perhaps putting sides on the ramp would be best. That way they'll feel more secure going up and down it. Also, that way they won't be able to fall off of it either.

Wow Great cage. Really nice lay out too. Your piggies are very lucky.
If they arent not using the ramp much try putting some sides on it. They will feel safer on in then.

EDIT sorry didnt see the 2 above posts.

I've got a fabric tube tunnel coming in the post soon so was going to put velcro on the ramp and tube and maybe see if that would help them go up it.

i've just noticed your ramp isn't at the very side, with mine (i have the same style ramp) it's up against the side of the cage which gives them one side sort of thing for support while leaving enough room for Chesters belly to hang over the edge on the other side |) this may also help if you don't mind taking your ramp off and putting it on again !

Ahh that looks really good. I LOVE that cage liner!

See, I wanted to have it against the wall but *someone* thought it would be better there lol. It would be no bother to move it across a little towards the wall, especially since we have a grid near the top to stop them falling out x Thanks
