just been reading the very good 'how to' about dog crate shelves and had a couple of questions about it:
1. are they easy to make (i am useless at DIY but might be able to get the majority of wood precut) or should i ask carpenter friend to build it?
2. how easy is it to adapt that plan for different size cage?
3. how much space does it actually add (e.g is it just a ledge for the rabbits to perch on or can they sleep/eat etc up there?
4.can you still get access to all of the lower level
5. in the picture the shelf is 'L' shaped is the door on this crate in the middle or to one side? would there be problems with a 'U' shaped shelf?
6. does it have to be MDF (doesn't that absorb liquid?) can it be that plastic coated stuff??
Sorry for all the questions but just want to make sure everything is jsut right before i spend my money lol.
Thanks in advance

p.s for all those with dog crates what do you use to line the floor? atm i use either dust extracted shavings, megazorb or russel rabbit chapped straw stuff but could you use vetbed or blankets etc, how often would you have to wash them?
