It Beat My A$$

I learned a lesson! Don't put a cage together by yourself! OMG this thing kicked my butt and it's not a complicated cage compared to alot. I had to run down to hardware store for another allen wrench. Someone very angry designed this cage. If I had designed it, I promise, it wouldn't have been that aggravating to put together. Anyway, Scarley is liking her cage I think.

THe new cage is in the front. The cage behind it is what Scarley has been in. It's ok ppl, she has ALOT of out of cage time.

Been there done that... got my latest cage put it together based on a small 1 sided note pad sized instructions with 2 diagrams and that was it. I built the cage and still had like 12 nuts/ bolts, 2 funny pieces left over and no clue what was going on.... Gotta love the cage industry, all imported with horrible foreign assembly instructions.

Nice cage, i would buy one if it had horizontal bars, you do need more toys it looks empty, and maybe a nice play top.

Nice cage!!! I also must of been one of the lucky ones who got cages that were easy to put together - All of my cages I have put together on my own and I actually enjoyed putting them together and it wasn't hard at all - dumb me, I always have fun doing the oddest things, lol.
