Hiya
i am new to this site so prob posting in the wrong places :oops:

Just wanted your opinons please,Just wondering about cages,at the mo i have Minni (french lop) in a ferplast 120 which is 118cm length,58cm width and 51cm high

but my friend has a dog crate going free which is 104cm length i know this is a bit smaller but the width and height are alot bigger.

Just wondering if it would be a better option seeing as shes going to get alot bigger, when i am home which is most of the time between school runs ill let her have run of the frontroom etc

You could make another level in the crate to give more room, or just a ledge to hop up to :) As long as she gets good exercise :love: I have a crate, it's a 48inch one, and they are really good to have, a lot better than the cages :)

She definitely will get a lot bigger, s i would say you need to go for an even larger sized crate, the 121cm or something. The 104 won't be big enough.
 
Most definatly not!! when i am home she will have run of the frontroom and as she gets more confident ill let her explore the rest of the house

Cool :)

I'd still get a bigger crate for the time she will be in it. You can pick up decent priced ones on Ebay.

Bit of advice.....definitely have her neutered, as unspayed buns can be a nightmare in the house. I speak from experience lol ;)

6 months, but some vets will do it earlier if they are suitably developed. Speying will also protect her against uterine cancer. Reduces the risk by up to 85%, so well worth it :)

Can I also reccommend that you have her vaccinated against Myxi as soon as you can (if not already done). Have a look at the video link I posted in this section and you'll see why :(

We'll expect pics by the way ;)
