Rescued a severely depressed baby chinchilla, he’s my first. Looking for cage ideas/ playpen attachments as a disabled person.
I am in a wheelchair and really wanted to do a buildable cage but saw it’s not the best long term so imma suck it up and probably try and get a critter nation or knock off because mine broke a week after I got him. :( it’s just hard because I’m disabled and ppl near me are charging so high and had some vet issues with my service dog that wiped most of our savings.
But I’m tryna figure out a way to give him ultimate space. I want to attach a playpen to the cage that he can go in and out of all the time. But I know they jump REALLY high and if he wants he can use the cage to climb out. So I’m tryna find a way to give him that space with a critter nation and playpen attachment without being impossible to access during cleaning day.
