Welcome to the forum,theicequeen99121! Rabbits need lots ofspace to hop, so it's best if the base size of the cage is long enoughfor them to take at least several hops. Personally I don'tlike going smaller than 3x2 grids for a base size even for smallrabbits, although for example JadeIcing's most recent cage is smallerfor litter training purposes. Not all rabbits enjoy jumpingeither, although all of mine do.
 
Yup I have two that are half pig half rabbits.
 
How do you guys make it sostable:shock: My piggies have a 4x2 cage without a top, andit is unstable! I would love to make a multistorie cage forDmitri, but first I need to know how to make it stable:)
 
I use both the connectors, plus zipties. If you have additional levels, you can add more supportto the floor by using dowel rods.

I had no problems with stability with Fey and Sprite's old 4x2 cage.:)
 
Also another way I found to keep the cage strongis if you put a sheet of coroplast on top of a sheet of plywood andthen screw the base connectors to the plywood and coroplast. It keepsthe base stable and strong and keeps it from being able to move freely.

The flooring i used is just vinyl flooring that i got from the localhardware store. I think they are at other places too. It's made in thatwood style making it look like actual wood, but in reality it is justflexible, waterproof flooring. It works great and Binky doesn't slip onit like I thought she would when i first felt it. All i did was buy alot of it, not expensive,cut it to size with scissors, andplaced in on top of the NIC cubes. Here are some pics.

Morgaine/Gwen's NIC cage :) It's 5 x 3 x 2 panels with a 2panel shelf. I've found Linoleum sheets to be the best andcheapest for the bottom :)
 
I havealready drawn up my designs. I have to wait til I move out, but my NICcage is going to be 100 panels (as a rough estimate). I know, I amcrazy, but they will be spending my college and work time in there so Iwill make it a palace with plenty of fun things to do!
