I have put a couple of silly bits in, an empty loo roll and an old cardboard hot chocolate tub and some hay and they are LOVING it! Will get some more bits 2moro, oh and someone has offered me an old birdcage which is much bigger than their current cage, so am going to see if I can adapt it for them before I go out and buy a new one, then if not then nothings wasted anyway.I will let you know what Maddy thinks in a wee while, being that she is scared of the rabbit and ignores the hamster, it could either way.
