Has anyone got a FOP cage?

I am searching for an indoor cage for my rabbits. I have a nethie and a medium sized rabbit who has turned out to be very destructive :? . So far she has destroyed my fireplace, my leather suite (they are now living inside it) and is munching her way through skirting boards and wallpaper :shock: Spaying her has not helped. I think she would thrive outside but my nethie is nearly 5 and never lived outside. Plus I would need to wait till the warmer weather. I have seen the 140 cm plastic cage that there was a thread about last month but it is not in stock just now.

I have found a couple of others that I like

from a company called FOP, but I can't find a seller in the UK, although the review came from a UK website.

Has anyone seen these before/know where I can get one/have any opinions on them?

Other one I was looking at was a SHAK hutch that I have heard can be added to, but not sure how that would work.

Would be grateful for any views as I love having the bunnies indoors with me but can't afford for them to destroy anything else.

Thanks
 
Never seen that cage before, but the ferplast furet xl has the same footprint, but is also 100cm tall. Those are widely available for around £100.
 
I use a dog cage and pet run. Its great and I dont feel too bad if I dont get chance to let them out.

Yeah, that's the website I saw the 140 cage on - hopefully they'll have them in stock soon.

I have a dog crate but the floor space isn't as big as the 140 cage and I have to say my bunnies don't jump up on things so I don't feel I need the extra height.

I like the idea of attaching extra run space though - I'm sure I could do that on the cage too.

Thanks for your help:)
 
Oops, just realised I posted a link to the same hutch twice - thats what looking for hutches all day does to you!
 
There's this one on Ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Ferplast-Rabb...ryZ63513QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItem

When I've seen something on zooplus I wanted that's out of stock I've left my email address and they get back to you quite quickly when it's back in stock.

Also P@H sell a 120 one which is nice and tall, and you could then add a run to it to extend the space. I have this one with guineapigs in it and it's a good quality cage, but I'd want to extend it for rabbits

The fop cage has one of the largest floor space of any conventional rabbit cage according to: http://www.therabbithouse.com/indoor/rabbitcages.asp


I first saw the shak houses on eBay and thought they would look cool indoors, and that the easy to clean bottom would be a good feature but to make a large enough home for your buns would prove very expensive (at £45 each)! Also I have seen the starter home on eBay as "suitable" for rabbits, but it's really far to small - they seemed to cheap to be true (£28.)

Still if you have the money to spare it's a funky idea! :lol:
