I have been researching getting a house rabbit for a couple of months. I have been in contact with a rescue place and my application was approved. I just needed to send pictures of my habitat. I researched housing and decided to make a cube cage and use coroplast on the outside. I completed the cage and was told by the rescue place that these cages were not safe because the bunnies will chew up the coroplast and the plastic ties. She said that using the plastic ties makes them not sturdy as well which is dangerous. She said I should look into an x pen. I see these cages all over and actually got the design and ideas from brighteyesanctuary.org. I have spent a lot of time and money. When I called her she actually asked if I was the lady with the crazy cage. I told her I had researched cages for awhile and got the idea from a rescue place. She said that the internet has a lot of stuff on it that is not true. I want to make it safe, but I need suggestions. I made the cage 2x4 and the coroplast is outside the cage. I used the plastic ties and tightened them and then cut off the extra part. I have two shelves that are around 14 inches wide by 28 inches long. I used the dowels and secured them with ties. I then put wood over the dowels and put the square linoleum tiles down. I will cover that with fleece. I used ramps and put steps on them. Help!
