Installing Indoor Cat Tree

[ubereglu]

Hello,

I have been offered a for £200, not quite sure whether it's a Mark 1 or 2? I'd have to get it picked up on the 21st October.

I'm in a bit of a dilemna, what should I do-should I buy the or continue to save up for a reconditioned one in blue/purple or buy the .

 

As in three weeks I may well have enough money to buy new. Please put your answer into the poll!

[Mrs Frugal]

Oh dear, Liz. What a dilemma. You've so nearly saved up enough to have whatever colour you want and there's room for 4 hens in a brand new one and only 3 if it's a Mark 1. Difficult call as you'll have some spending money left over if you buy this green one after you've worked so hard all this time.

 

Oh dear. Can't say!

[Cate in NZ]

Ooooh, tough one Liz... I've not voted because I truly think that it depends on how strongly you feel about the colour.

Green's not the most exciting colour, but it's very popular, looks good and it might be a good introduction to the garden if your parents are a bit conservative. Besides which an eglu is an eglu, and £200 is a great price. You'd then have money left over for whatever you want.

Oh, heck.... I'm going to go back and vote for get the green.... but honest it's your decision. You've worked and saved so hard that you honestly deserve whatever you want

[ubereglu]

Kate can you edit the poll for me as the buying the green eglu bit hasn't come up as an option.

[Lesley]

I'd want to know if it was a Mark 1 or 2 - I'm sure you'd need a Mark 2 Liz.

[ubereglu]

Mark 1's are suitable for up to three medium hens aren't they?

 

And Mark 2's are for 4 medium hens?

I've done it for you Liz - you had put the first question where it required a title.

[Lesley]

Mark 1's are suitable for up to three medium hens aren't they?

 

And Mark 2's are for 4 medium hens?

 

Yes - but if your hens have free range of the garden or a large run, then you could fit in more.

[ubereglu]

I now think I'm going to buy a brand new . I'm deciding this as I really want a and am not sure whether Starlet will fit throught the door of a Mark 1 as she's very big!

 

The other reason is that I still have other orders on the way and I wouldn't be true to them if I said the money was going towards an eglu and it wasn't.

 

As well as that-I can't wait 3 weeks-when I know I can make enough money for a new one in just over that.

 

THAT'S IT A for me!

Liz, I think you've put so much time and effort into saving up for an eglu that you should wait and get a colour you really want - you deserve it ! (if it was me I'd always be thinking "I wish I'd got....") Only my opinion - good luck with whatever you decide.

[Ruth]

I agree, you're so nearly there, so unless you are SURE about the green Mk1, hold on for a new one!

[Karen & co.]

Tough choice

 

I've really enjoyed watching your total grow, (very quickly!) and think it would be worth hanging on a little longer for a new one in the colour you really want,

 

but on the other hand! there would be money left to get some other bits and bobs like the shade etc.

 

Your choice Liz, and well done for working and saving so hard

I think you should carry on saving for what you really want

 

If you compromise & get this green one,you may always think "what if.........."

 

It does sound like a bargain,but I am a firm believer in saving for your hearts desire,be it an Eglu or anything else,rather than making do with something that is fine,but not what you really,really want

 

You have done so well to save this much - don't give up now

[Guest]

on the nail, Sarah...

 

that's good advice

[hillfamily]

If it was me, I would keep saving. You're so close to being able to buy a brand new eglu in the colour of your choise

 

You've worked so hard making beautiful things so that you can own something beautiful.

[Egluntyne]

I'd wait for the Purple Eglu.

Couldn't have put it better!

I'd snatch at the green one, but purple is really cool! Can't wait to see the pictures!
