I don't recomend you by all means to do everything I am doing but the cage might work since he is small and he will have room to play and sleep.Just trying to help,I have to explain all this becuase I read the other thread you posted and everyone attacking you and I know some people might not agree with what I am doing with my Chis.They are very spoiled and well loved this is what I found that makes them happy and they went through so much before coming to me and I promised them they would be nothing but happy with me and I have kept my word.So here ya go these are the pics of where my Chis live.Maybe since you guys are gone for a long period this type of cage will work. |
Is that a litter box in there? I think I might like your setup. If that is a litter box, then would he even run to the litterbox if the door were left open?
