Catwalks!

I still liked the idea of the racetrack upper level but the tubes were getting to be a hack to clean so I thought I'd see how I liked a gridded catwalk instead.  True to it's name my cat had to investigate soon after I installed it:

The piggies seem to prefer the catwalks to the tubes, they are flat, wider and plusher.

I finished switching out the tubes for catwalks last week.  I really like them.  They are super easy to clean (much more budget friendly for anyone who wants to try this in their cage) and although the cage looks like it would be complicated and time consuming to take apart it is incredibly fast!  Both patios, the ramp and one catwalk are all able to come up and out of the cage.  The one catwalk in the back had to be permanent because of the lid but it is very easy to work around.

One small challenge I came across is that my foxy tube liners were too narrow for the much wider catwalks so I quickly sewed up a couple of wider cat walk liner sets.
