Grids as Cage

Use grids to create a CnC Cage, 2×4, 3×4, 2×5, etc.

Picnic Blanket as Liner

Use this as your bottom liner. I recommend still adding pee pads under hideys, the hay rack, and the food and water bowls.

Hay Rack, Food & Water Bowl

Fill this hanger with hay and use the bowls for food and water!
