Hey all... I haven't introduced myself yet, but I've been a lurker here for several weeks. Im Kate. I have a 1.5 year old Holland lop... "Bun" that is technically my 4year old's but really? She's my baby.
We are making Bun a new house for Christmas out of an armoire I found on Craigslist for pretty cheap. I really wanted something that wouldn't be an eyesore in our main living area so Bun could be more a part of the family. Right now she's in my daughters room... And doesn't get as much lovin as I'd like. She has some very limited out time these days because I discovered corners of a closet where the carpet is completely ruined. She likes to dig.
Buns current gig:
So... I have some questions about shelf height.... But first, here's the
Project so far....
What it was
Rough Plans
Inside
Outside
So, the plans show a 1/2 shelf at the top, which isn't going to work well. The armoire had a shelf at the top that was 9 inches from the top. The next shelf would be 15 inches below, and the bottom inside is 15 inches below that. Think that's enough spacing at the top for sleeping quarters and food/ hay? The level below that would have litter box..... And then there will be an x pen setup for now and then eventually .... More place to run. Probably NIC cubes around. Not sure, at least 4x5 to run.
I think the inside back will be stick laminate... As well as the inside bottom shelves....
Anyway. I'm open to suggestions.
