A couple of cavy's are staying in our living room for fun Because our house has a country and western appearance, we decided we would like to make a cage where you can see the appearance We found some really nice wooden cages on this German site Tinas-Nagerpension im Herzen des Ruhrgebietes We got the idea from this site and adjusted it to our style
We first built a table to build the upper cage on. The idea is to build another cage right underneath this table	We burned a painting on the back of the cage in western style
This is the result
We burned a catus on the front edge	Everything is enamelled in a wood colour
After 2 times enamelling you get a nice and deep warm colour	After that the outside is being attached firmly
To protect everything better, the whole construction is enamelled 2 more times with parquet floor enamel	On the inside we attached some plexiglass. This way the hay stays in the cage
The bottle is being held in the cage by a wooden circel. This is exactly made for the size of the bottlecap so it's being held well
By attaching a aluminium bar, we can use plexiglass to colse the cage from the front, but we can still remove it if we want to clean the cage	Here you can see the cage placed in our living room
The front is being placed loosely to the front as some sort of facade By using articualtions the front is being attached firmly	The upper cage is done
The lower cage is being made the same way but without the table construction with a high back wall of wood and 2 open side walls
A innerwall is being placed vertically in this cage so there is enough space for 2 compartiments in 1 cage	An aluminium bar is being placed on the plexiglass with bolts and screws
This is what the the cage looks like with the 2 compartiments	On this cage there is a facade placed too
This is what the whole construction looks like De cages are placed on wheeles so the whole thing can be moved away easily so it makes it easier to clean the whole thing
