Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Unpack Components: Carefully remove all cage parts from the packaging. Check against the included instructions (if any) that all pieces are present.
- Assemble Base and Sides: Attach the side panels to the deep black base. Ensure all clips or connectors are securely fastened for stability.
- Install Top and Doors: Position the top wire section and secure any latches or clips. Make sure all doors open and close smoothly and latch securely.

Compatibility
This cage is primarily designed for rabbits and other similar-sized small rodents such as guinea pigs. The 2cm bar spacing is generally safe for adult rabbits. For very small or juvenile animals, monitor to ensure they cannot squeeze through the bars.
Care

- Weekly Deep Clean:
- Remove your pet and place them in a secure temporary enclosure.
- Empty all bedding and litter.
- Wipe down the plastic base with a pet-safe cleaner or a mild soap and water solution. Rinse thoroughly.
- Wipe down the metal bars with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris. For stubborn grime, use a pet-safe cleaner.
- Ensure all parts are completely dry before adding fresh bedding and returning your pet.
- Maintenance: Regularly check latches and clips for wear and tear. Inspect bars for any damage or rust.
