So I have a great cage and I really love it (my chins do to) but i'm feeling kinda frustrated with it. Its a 4 ft. tall, all wire martins cage. It's the wire bottom and wire shelves that make me upset. I put fleece on the bottom (a portion is w/o fleece because that's where they pee) and there's a slide out tray that I put aspen shaving. The wire is super small squares so it's unlikely that my chins would get their foot stuck, although I do worry about that a little. Anyway, i'm kinda a neat freak/a bit of a germaphobe, and when my chins pee on the wire in one spot, you can tell and its really hard to clean. I'm thinking a pie pan or something as a litter box in the cage? And then I would cover the entire bottom with fleece. But then what's the purpose of the slide out pan with wood shavings in it?? Blahh sorry this probably isn't making sense.
Ok now on to the shelves - it's the same deal where your can see the pee spot and it's hard to clean. Of course you would think duhh, just take them out and put in wood shelves, but there's a ramp that connects the 2 levels so I don't think that would work. Here's a pic -
It's a hazard, I know, but I cover it with fleece but wanted you to see what it actaully looks like
This is at an angle looking down

I'm tempted to just take it all out and put it wood shelves. I'm not very handy but I might be able to manage..*sigh* What do you guys think?
