I am thinking about making one of these now that we have switched to fleece on the cage floor instead of newspaper under the cage. It sure would save a lot of the mess on the fleece!

OMG, i've never seen a nose like that. Does it wiggle when he sniffs? I have a solution for the mess. Get a dog...when I let Ty out of his cage in the morning he runs straight for the suggies cage. He licks up anything he finds on the floor around the table their cage is on. I never have to sweep. Around the cage on the table is another story. I think i'll be buying a kitchen and shelf this weekend. Thanks for the idea!!

I'm just curious Catman:

Obviously the proper orientation of a glider kitchen is in the eye of beholder, but why did you opt to have the lid on the top when the rest of us have used the lid as a base? I do it that way because the lid has more physical room for them to move around in there. And, I can see them better when the lid is on the bottom. There's really no right or wrong way of course. Just curious why you went with the lid on top?

dizzysmom,it just fit better with the top side up(i tried both ways), the bottom is flatter and is more stable that way.The lid also has some fin like things all the way around the inside and I thought it would be hard to clean and maybe rough in their feet to walk on.

Makes sense to me! So - What's the verdict? (How do you like it?)

well I think it's time for me to try my hand a making some glider kitchen's. These fur-butts decided to throw egg all over the place tonight. I'll be cleaning up smashed egg out of carpet forever. I'll be out hunting for plastic containers for kitchen's tomorrow I guess.

Okay so last night after finding scrambled egg all over my carpet I decided it's time for a glider kitchen. So here it is. One of the one's we made today. Can't wait to see it in the morning. I hope they eat tonight.

They work great for me!! About 1/10th the mess to clean up.

You'll be glad you did it!

I've found that I no longer have to scrub my walls, there's much less mess on the floor, and I don't have to clean the inside of my cage nearly as much. Less work makes me a very happy camper!

DITTO!!!

I use a a round cake holder tupperware. I just cut a 4" hole in the side so they could crawl in and out, and it works great! Perfect size too for fitting through the cage door so I can clean it every night.

Well they used their glider kitchen's last night. Sure seemed like less of a mess than I normally clean up but they were messy. I'm so glad I did this and the plastic boxes were only $1.00 at the Dollar General. I can't wait to fix their dinner tonight. Thank's everyone for the glider kitchen tip.

My gliders make a mess too! I'm so glad I have a glider kitchen.

On Ebay I'm sails_away
My website suggieshak.webs.com
I sell them for people who don't want to make their own and want to own one.
My kitchens have hangers on all 4 corners and beaded cage attachments.

The hanging glider kitchen is very cool. By the looks of my walls right now - Im going to have to to something soon!

Suggie Shack - what are the demensions of your hanging kitchen?

Wow, that really is a mess. I like your hanging glider kitchen. It's pretty cool.
