Elderly cat breathing difficulties when purring

Looks like we might have sold our pink eglu.

 

Our purple one is only 6 months old and am seriously considering selling this one too and ordering a second cube - saves on delivery if they come together

 

Has anyone got bantams in a cube? Do they manage ok? That is the decider. If not we will keep the purple eglu for them. Its just I have a feeling I might find a cube easier to clean, as I find the shells very heavy to lift off. Well thats my excuse and I'm sticking to it

Oh what a good idea

 

Just thinking about my ex-battery girls - they sometimes struggle with the ladder but i suppose you could adapt this for your bantam babes?

thankfully Andy is fab when it comes to building things, manufacturing things and adapting things, so it might well be the way to go ...

 

I'm just wondering if the credit card will stand up to it!

[Egluntyne]

Go on...you can't take it with you.

 

As my old Dad used to say.......they don't put pockets in shrouds.

what a great saying - and that has just made me feel immensely better about the expenditure I've incurred in recent weeks (including having ordered a cube!

[Snowy]

No problem with banties in a cube - Dilly who posts on here has 10 in hers

[redfrock]

ummm guess what I am ordering tomorrow then .....

 

now which colour should I have?

 

a matching pair or a co-ordinating pair???

[Christian]

It has to be LILAC!!!

 

It goes so well with the purple

[Egluntyne]

Co-ordinating....lilac will look very pretty with purple.

Two cubes running down the garden look great. We have lined ours up with railway around the skirt with plant pots on them.

lilac and purple...........best combination I'm keeping my purple eglu when my lilac cube arrives :D :D

 

my 'mother's day' lilac glugs came today, they are a gprgeous colour (when you get to see them 'in the flesh' .............just another 31 days until my lilac cube

 

Please please please post pics as I'm dying to see a pic of the lilac cube :

[redfrock]

because you have all asked so nicely I will get Andy to build the lilac cube first

 

Here's the plan:

 

tomorrow: extend walk-in run from 12ft x 8ft to 12ft x 12 ft

Sunday: collect three new girls. Attach run to purple eglu inside run so that new girls integrate safely with current flock

13th March: new cubes arrive (without runs)

15th March: build lilac cube (two whole days from when it arrives ) & attach to run instead of pink eglu for original girls. Photograph lilac cube for omlet forum.

16th March: new owner collects pink eglu

couple of weeks later: all big girls hopefully integrated so can collect bantam babies. They will then live in the purple eglu like the new big girls did until it is safe for them to be integrated, then purple eglu replaced with purple cube & eglu sold, complete with run. Photograph side-by-side cubes for omlet forum.

 

Sound like a plan?????

The only thing missing from the schedule was timing...ie 0800 hours, 14.27pm etc.
